We love and appreciate our volunteers! PCSSD is allowing volunteers to assist with schools this year (2020-2021). However, volunteers are asked to follow the PCSSD protocols put in place during COVID-19. Additionally, volunteers are asked to follow any school-specific guidelines put in place by building administrators.
If volunteer who enters the building with the expectation of being inside for more than 15 minutes, must complete the building entry screening survey. This is the same screening protocol that staff complete each day. Of course, volunteers can assist without being in the school building, too. Please use this form to record any volunteer hours this school year. Thank you!
