    IDENTIFICATION and SIGN-IN/SIGN-OUT PROCEDURES
     
     
    Because student safety is the responsibility of the school, always report to the school office before you begin your volunteer activity.  Begin by signing in with the front office  with your driver's license and obtaining a Badge Pass visitors badge.  Wearing your name badge while at the school and during your volunteer activity will ensure that school staff and students can easily identify you.  Please take a moment to log in your volunteer hours by signing-in with your Volunteer password and ID at https://focus.pcsb.org/volunteer  from home or on our Community Access Computer inside the front office.  The Focus Volunteer System keeps a record of your hours of service, which the school will receive recognition for based on the number of volunteer hours accumulated over the school year.  Please don't forget to sign out!! 
     
     
    VOLUNTEERS 
     
    All individuals desiring to volunteer whether in a classroom or to act as a chaperone on a field trip are required to complete the application process. Volunteer applicants are also required to show a legal, government issued photo ID upon registration to verify their name and date of birth. Information on the registration form is used to conduct a background check by the county. All information is for program use only and will not be given to any other organization, group or person. Pinellas County Schools reserves the right to refuse volunteer assignments to individuals convicted of offenses pursuant to 112.011, Florida Statutes (1997).

    To make the registration process easier for you, you can download the registration     form by clicking on the Volunteer Registration form below, fill it out at your convenience and return it to the front office at your next visit to the school. Always sign in and obtain a Badge Pass at the school office before beginning your volunteer activity. Please log all volunteer hours by signing in with your volunteer password and ID into Focus/SIS. Volunteer hours are tracked by the county to provide recognition to the school and track the impact of volunteer services on students. See the document to the right for instructions on how to log hours.
