Guidelines for Volunteering
-
- Complete a criminal history background check and submit it to the coordinator to forward to the personnel office. The results determine whether or not a person may volunteer at the school. Volunteers working at the school must also attend an orientation/training session to ensure they are familiar with the school volunteer program guidelines and feel comfortable going in to help.
- Be reliable and punctual if you make a commitment to help. The staff is relying on you. Please call if you are unable to volunteer.
- Be prepared to sign in and out at the campus office. You will find a Volunteer Sign In/Out Notebook at each campus site.
- Wear your HISD Volunteer ID Badge when you come to the school to volunteer. If you forget yours, the office will print you a sticker. For student safety, everyone must be identified as approved to be in the school buildings.
- Be discreet and confidential with student/staff information. Talk with school personnel if you have questions or concerns.
- Work under the direction and supervision of the school staff.
- Refer all disciplinary problems you may encounter to a staff member immediately.
- Follow the school dress code.
- Make sure you have a clear understanding of your volunteer assignment and to whom you should report. Don't hesitate to ask questions to gain clarification.
- Know and follow all school regulations.
