Volunteer Service

Fullerton School District encourages parents and community members to get involved with their schools. Your participation enhances instructional and extra-curricular programs and motivates students. This site will provide you with information on how to volunteer with Fullerton School District.

The goals of Fullerton School District are twofold:

1)    To encourage and assist volunteers in their efforts to support student learning

2)    To ensure the safety of our students at all times

After you have identified the type of service you wish to participate in, please complete an application, along with any required documents, and submit it to the appropriate school site. To allow sufficient processing of your application, please submit your application at least three weeks prior to the event which you are volunteering for.

Types of Volunteers:

  • A Driver/Overnight Field Trip Chaperone is one who may be alone with students under general supervision of the District.

  • A Classroom (short term)/Day Field Trip Volunteer/Guest Speaker is a volunteer who is constantly under the supervision of a certificated teacher. Short term volunteer assistance may be only for a day, here and there on a monthly basis.

  • A Classroom (regular basis)/Preschool Volunteer is one who may be alone with students in an instructional/aide capacity. A regular basis classroom volunteer assists in a routine and consecutive time period (three hours or more per week on a weekly basis).

  • A Service Learning Volunteer may be a high school or college student not in a credential program seeking community service credit and is constantly under the supervision of a certificated teacher.

    • Fingerprinting Estimated Costs:

    In some instances, fingerprint clearance may be required before a volunteer may begin. A check for $32.00, made payable to Fullerton School District, is to be attached to the VAR form. The cost of the actual Live Scan ranges from $18 or more. This fee is payable to the Live Scan Center chosen by the volunteer applicant.
