ANNUAL VOLUNTEER APPLICATION
All volunteers must reapply every year. Submit a Volunteer Application and complete the Background Check Form found in the "Click to Apply" button below. Background Forms should be turned in to campus you selected on your Volunteer Applications. Please review the Brenham ISD Criminal History Standards for Volunteers prior to completing your application.
CONFIRMATION & ORIENTATION SIGN UP
Once your application and background check has been successfully processed you will receive an email and text to sign up for a Volunteer Orientation. All volunteers must complete orientation prior to receive campus assignment. 
*Any volunteer declined because of the criminal background check will receive notification. At no point will a Principal or Volunteer Coordinator receive information about a person’s criminal background check. All information will remain confidential.
YOU ARE READY!
Once you complete the orientation you are cleared to volunteer. Next, you will be contacted by a Volunteer Coordinator to arrange your volunteer effort. Thank you for volunteering and serving our Brenham ISD community!
The FAQ section on our volunteer page is a valuable resource designed to provide answers to common questions and concerns that potential and current volunteers may have. 
    • A good volunteer is consistent, dependable, interested in making a difference, respectful and appreciative of teachers and students, and faithful to commitments.

    • Volunteers are role models for students in behavior, speech, and dress.

    • When persons are on duty as volunteers, the district requests that they dress in conformity with the teacher’s dress code.

    • Volunteers will check in at the front desk upon arrival at the school. This record allows the school to know who is in the building

    • Volunteers will wear name badges provided by the school as a security measure and as recognition of the value the school places on its volunteers.

    • Volunteers will learn campus procedures and follow them.

    • Volunteers will be sure to keep track of their volunteer hours through their Raptor profile.

  • Generally, volunteers are parents, grandparents, representatives from the business community, and other concerned and dedicated people who give generously of their time in the Brenham schools to support the professional staff and enrich the educational experiences of nearly 5,000 students.

  • Brenham ISD volunteers assist with special events, serve as tutors, make special presentations, and read to students. In the school clinics, libraries, and office areas, volunteers provide clerical assistance. We also have volunteers who work with clubs, and extracurricular like Special Olympics, MCJROTC, Theatre, AVID, Art Club, and more!

  • The campus volunteer coordinators will work with volunteers to match the volunteer’s skills, interests, and available time to projects. Most volunteers serve during the school day, unless they signed up for a special school event. Some take projects home to complete at their leisure. Members of booster clubs often show their commitment after school hours and on the weekends at performances and competitions.
