Who
Can Volunteer?
Welcome to the
Volunteer Information page! We appreciate you looking into our
volunteer program and are very excited about having such a
program in our schools. Volunteering provides the opportunity to
directly influence the educational environment of our children.
|
By volunteering, you can enrich a child's school experience
and directly influence how they view school and learning. If you
are a parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, friend, neighbor,
pastor, business person or retired employee from a school system
and would like to help, this is your opportunity. |

When Can I Volunteer?
After
you have attended the orientation class and filled out your registration
form and interest sheet,
you will be finger printed and a background check will be completed by
our local SR Officer.
Background Check/Fingerprints
School Board Policy requires that each volunteer have a background check
completed with Tennessee
Law Enforcement. Your name will also be checked against the Sexual
Predator List.
Please remember that, as of this time, our district is paying for the
fingerprints to be done. If feel that you
can't volunteer at this time, please do not have your fingerprints done.
Also, if you are already on a substitute
list for Gibson County School System, you will not have to be
fingerprinted, but will have to attend the
mandatory Orientation Class.

Volunteer Procedures
Each and every volunteer is to attend a mandatory
orientation meeting every year, no exception.
At the time of your orientation class, you will be asked
to fill out a Volunteer Registration Form and an Interest Sheet
for each school that you are interested in volunteering.
Orientation Class dates will be posted on the website as soon
as they become available.
During your orientation, you will learn of opportunities
where you can serve, our policies, procedures, and guidelines.
You are required to read the Volunteer handbook, and sign the
Registration form verifying that you comply with the terms
therein.
