To prevent the spread of COVID-19 and reduce the risk of exposure to our staff and students, we will be limiting the visitors on campuses to only parents and guardians who have completed a health screening and scheduled an appointment. COVID-19 visitor guidelines. As we move toward opening our buildings and allowing support from our outside partners and volunteers, we want to ensure that everyone has been cleared, approved, and ready to serve when that time comes.

Volunteer accounts are active for an entire year (12 months) from the date of approval. A notification will be sent to the approved volunteer one month prior to expiration with instructions on how to renew or remove their volunteer account for the upcoming year.

Parent Information and Confidentiality
As an LISD volunteer, it is important to ensure that any parent and/or student information (including email addresses) you may be given access to, will be treated respectfully and confidentially. Therefore, please keep in mind that parent’s personal email addresses may only be used to communicate on approved topics such as notification of classroom events, upcoming school functions, school volunteer opportunities, etc. Volunteers should not send unauthorized or non-school related emails to parents’ personal email addresses. This includes emails of a personal nature, emails that advertise or market non-school related items or activities, and emails discussing confidential information about another student, parent, or staff member.
Please note that LISD must comply with privacy laws by ensuring that all staff members and volunteers who have access to confidential information ONLY use that information as authorized. Unauthorized use of confidential information, including parents’ personal email addresses, can result in removal from the volunteer program.
Frequently Asked Questions
As restrictions begin to lift, the individual campuses will determine when the best time would be to allow additional visitors and volunteers on to the campus.
Please continue to share your ideas with your student’s teacher, campus principal, local PTA/PTO, counselor, or the school and community relations department. We are all in this together!
