Whether you have an hour or a whole day, there's a place for everyone to make a difference in our school community.
Our volunteers are the best; they make everything we do possible! The PTA invites you to join us in making our school the best it can be—a place where every child can learn, grow, and thrive. Whether you can give an hour, a day, or ongoing support, your time and contributions—big or small—make a meaningful difference for our students, teachers, and community.
Whether you have an hour to spare or a special skill to share, there are countless ways to get involved. From helping in the classroom and volunteering at events to lending your expertise in graphic design, photography, website management, or other talents, every contribution makes a difference. Join our growing team of Community Contributors and help create memorable experiences for our Jaguar community.

Volunteer Requirements (for adults potentially left unsupervised with students):
All volunteers must complete district paperwork (see below) and undergo a background check. Once you have been cleared, you do not need to repeat this process each year. Please note, the background check is required even if you have been screened by another agency. The cost of the background check is the responsibility of the parents and is usually more affordable at any UPS store.
Next Steps
Print and complete the paperwork linked below.
Bring the completed paperwork with you when you go for fingerprinting.
