FYI-Volunteering for field trips and in the classroom

Volunteer Program-- Programs Closes to Mondays at the end of the Month Trailblazers, We have great volunteers at Banks and want to continue to have our parents and community stakeholders in our building and classrooms supporting students. In order to volunteer in our school, each person must go through the volunteer registration and reactivation process. Please see the information below regarding this process. Please call the school with any questions regarding reactivating your volunteer status or completing the initial volunteering process. Thank you, Mrs. Graf Reactivation for Continuing Volunteers • All continuing volunteers approved for the 2013-2014 school year MUST reactivate as a volunteer no later than 4:00 p.m. on October 31, 2014.

Access to the volunteer system is: WCPSS Intranet – Business Applications – Volunteer Registration. • After October 31, 2014, individuals previously approved may not volunteer without a new criminal record check.
