Becominging a Volunteer

Volunteers are essential to the success of our school, and we are very grateful for the contributions of our dedicated volunteers. All volunteers (including those chaperoning field trips) will be required to apply to be a volunteer. This can be done by following these steps:

1. Visit our website https://appgarden5.app-garden.com/VolTrackUT30.nsf 

2. Register and complete application 

3. Application will be reviewed and you will be contacted if further information is needed. TCSD uses BCI for all background checks. If you have never applied to volunteer before, you will need to have your fingerprints taken at the district office before you can be approved to volunteer. If you have applied and been a volunteer before, you may not need to have your fingerprints taken again. This will depend on if your fingerprints were taken through the TCSD system. The district will notify you if you need your fingerprints taken. 

4. Once approved, watch your in-box for invites to opportunities that match your interest.  Once you are a volunteer, please check in with the teacher for whom you would like to volunteer. That teacher will be able to direct you as to how to help in his/her classroom, with copies, and/or how you can be of benefit to the school at large. 

5. Once your initial volunteer application and background check have been approved, you will be notified by email annually on the anniversary date of your application approval to renew your status as a volunteer. If you do this, you will not be required to have your fingerprints taken again. However, if you fail to respond to the yearly reminder email, you will have to complete the volunteer registration process.
