York Schools Volunteer Program
Meet Our Latest York Schools Hometown Hero: Maclean Douris, Peer Listener
Maclean has been an incredible addition to our Peer Listener Program. He volunteers multiple times a week in a 5th grade classroom and is a true role model to the younger students. The program has many high school Juniors/Seniors who make an impact in our schools and Maclean is one of many who go above and beyond. In the words of Becky Geranis, YMS 5th grade teacher: “ Maclean shows up week after week. His 5th grade fellas can be seen scanning the hallways awaiting Maclean's arrival with anticipation and big smiles! We have noticed increased engagement in student learning AND happier 5th graders as a result of Maclean's mentorship! Thank you, Maclean!”
In the words of Maclean Douris:
As the youngest sibling of four, growing up, it was always a wish of mine to have a younger sibling or to be some sort of role model for younger kids. When I heard there was a chance to be a Peer Listener at the middle school—where I could form connections and, hopefully, positively impact a few kids' lives—I was really excited about the opportunity.
When I first met my buddies, I knew instantly that we would get along well. We had similar interests, such as sports and video games, and once they got a bit more comfortable around me, they became two of the funniest kids I have ever met. Whether it’s heading down to the game room with them, playing basketball 1 v. 2, or giving them fist bumps when I first come into their classroom in the morning, I’m always looking forward to seeing these two guys.
They’ve shown me that they’re super comfortable being themselves, and they always try to have fun no matter what we’re doing. They’ve also taught me everything I’ll ever need to know about Fortnite, and I’m extremely thankful that I’ll have the chance to work with them during my second semester as well.

8th-grade students at YMS are learning about the roles and responsibilities of citizenship. Recently, they registered to vote and participated in Student Council elections after listening to campaign speeches from their peers running for leadership positions. We aim to make the election process as realistic as possible because studies show that when students experience voting early, they’re more likely to make it a lifelong habit. A big thank you to the York Education Foundation for their generous grant, which made this hands-on learning opportunity even more impactful.
With the upcoming early release: Reminder to sign up for a bag lunch!
