For the safety of the children, all volunteers must complete a Texas Department of Public Safety Criminal History Information Form every school year. The online form is available on July 1 for each upcoming school year. Any submissions prior to July 1 will be archived and a new submission is required. Paper copies are not accepted or processed.

WHO'S A VOLUNTEER? For the purpose of the criminal history check, a volunteer is defined as someone coming to school to fulfill or accept a volunteer responsibility. This policy applies to parents, family members, PTA board members and chairs, college students, and community members. Only one submission is required to volunteer districtwide. All field trip volunteers will require a volunteer form.

WHAT'S NEXT? The form is processed through the Texas Department of Public Safety Office and will take approximately 10 business days to complete. Please contact your campus to check your volunteer status.
