Hi Skarlett,
I think it's great that you're available and interested in becoming a volunteer, but perhaps you meant your question for a particular school? If so, I recommend you discuss this opportunity with your child's teacher directly, or contact the school office (or the school's Parent Teacher Association) to see if they have a need for a volunteer elsewhere on campus.
If you don't have the school's contact info handy (and if the school is located in the U.S.), you can use SchoolFinder to locate its phone and/or address: http://www.education.com/schoolfinder/
