HOME EDUCATORS OF RAINBOW FOREST

Team Job Descriptions

 

Each HERF family is asked to serve once or twice (more details below) on a Team for the school year.  Descriptions are below to assist you in choosing the team that suits your family best. Please choose a team on which you or a family member would be willing to serve. HERF Team positions are not overly time consuming and are designed for the busy homeschool family. After processing the applications, you will be contacted by our HERF Jobs Coordinator and/or your Team Leader to discuss your placement. If you are unable to fulfill a team position, you must pay an additional fee of $75 to be a member without a job.

 

Please keep in mind that HERF is a completely volunteer organization including the Leadership Team. HERF serves the greater Roanoke Valley homeschool community by providing resources and opportunities to experience Christian fellowship through events and social activities as well as service and Christ-centered ministry to one another.

​

If you are interested in a Team Leader position or have an idea for a ministry, please reach out. We are always open to new ideas that will help homeschool families.

HERF welcomes all field trip ideas and we allow other team members to host field trips when they want to. [For example, Member A is on another team but wants the large group discounted rate at Field Trip Z. Member A hosts a field trip at Field Trip Z in order to get a discounted rate that benefits Member A's family AND other HERF Members.] If this is your situation, please reach out. We are always open to more field trips.
