    A CMSD “volunteer” under Ohio labor laws § 553.101 is defined. (a) An individual who performs hours of service for a public agency for civic, charitable, or humanitarian reasons, without promise, expectation or receipt of compensation for services rendered, is considered to be a volunteer during such hours.

    Volunteers make a difference by:

    • Strengthening school programs
