It's not well written.  

Young students are precious when they're doing volunteer work.

While "It is precious for young students to do volunteer work." could read correctly, it could also be as: "It is precious for young students to work as volunteers." or "Young students can do precious volunteer work."

Yes but precious isn’t the right word to use for valuable. 
You cannot always substitute a synonym without changing the meaning of the sentence entirely. 

Do you watch the goodpigeons on the old tiny toons cartoon series. There’s a vignette  involving 3 pigeons based off the Goodfellas movie. One of the pigeons substitutes a synonym for a word and it makes no sense until he says other synonyms and then the other pigeon figures out what he’s trying to say.
