If you'd like to volunteer for at-school events, chaperone for a field trip, or work any other role where you're working in-person with students, you must satisfy the DeKalb County School District's parent volunteer requirements. 

​​

 

Volunteer Level I

​

Volunteer forms for the following volunteer opportunities are available in the front lobby and can be quickly filled out day of:

​

• Mystery Reader

• Parent Show-and-Tell

• Helping with a class activity or class party

• Cafeteria Helper

• Library Helper

• Photocopy Helper 

• Career Day Helper
   

* All volunteer opportunities will be sent out directly by teachers or will be sent through the FLASH.

​

​

Volunteer Level II

 

For daytime field trips, parents who want to be chaperones will need Level II volunteer training. 

 

Please click here and follow steps 1-5 to complete the Level II Volunteer Training.

​

* For Step 4, we recommend you choose 'Officer Helper (Level II)' under #2. of the Volunteer Application and Release form. 

​

** For Step 5, please send your picture ID and Mandated Reporter Training Certificate to the DCSD email address provided.

 

​

Volunteer Level III

 

For overnight field trips (5th grade parents), chaperones will need Level III volunteer clearance.  

 

All parents must complete the Steps 1-5 in the above Volunteer Level II clearance as well as schedule an appointment with the Dekalb County Public Safety Department for fingerprinting.

*Getting cleared for Level III requires just one more step than Level II. It will grant you clearance for any and all volunteer opportunities and covers you for 5 years (with annual badge renewal at the DCSD security office). Please consider Level III to maximize your volunteer potential as a member of the amazing FES community!
