The schools utilize volunteer help at the building and classroom level on a daily basis. Before a person volunteers at one of the elementary buildings, the school district asks for him/her to complete a background check. Each elementary school's subsite page has a link to the Volunteer Background Check Application. Contact your child's classroom teacher or building principal to learn more about the volunteer opportunities that are available.

At the beginning of each school year, each building principal forms a Site Council to identify and discuss school site performance goals and objectives. Volunteers may be school staff, parents, or community members. The councils meet regularly throughout the school year. To inquire about serving your school's Site Council, please contact your building principal.

Parent-Teacher Organizations (PTO) & Booster Clubs
Early childhood, elementary, and middle schools have building-level PTOs. Parents have the opportunity to work directly with their child’s school and teachers. Each school’s PTO focuses closely on fundraising, coordinating room parents, and organizing staff appreciation. A parent representative, as well as a teacher representative, is needed at each building. If you are interested in being a representative for your school or simply getting involved, contact your child's school.
