Volunteer

  • Thank you for your interest in volunteering at Santa Clara Unified School District. We have many opportunities for you to share your passion by supporting our students and schools and helping where you’re needed most. 

    Corporate and Nonprofit Volunteers

    If you would like to make arrangements to volunteer as a group, please contact Partnerships Manager Steven Neese at 408-423-2269 or visit our Partnerships webpage for more information.

    Family and Community Volunteers

    Volunteers must comply with the directions of the School Administration concerning wearing appropriate face-coverings (masks), testing, and maintaining social distance, following district requirements.

    Here are some steps to guide you through the volunteer process: 

    1.  Complete the online volunteer packet below, selecting the school* or department from the drop-down menu:
    2. Submit a copy of a photo ID, such as a driver's license. If you are volunteering in person, submit a copy of a current TB test.
      • These should be scanned and attached to the volunteer packet.
    3. The site or department administrator will review the application and either approve or deny the request.
    4. The school site or department secretary will notify you when you are cleared to volunteer.

    *Washington Open Elementary School volunteers will be provided a volunteer packet by the school site.

    Please be aware that all volunteering is handled through the individual school sites and departments  — we do not have a volunteer pool that is monitored at the district level.
