Volunteer

Chaperones
for
Field Trips

We are so THANKFUL you would like to volunteer at GHES. Some important information to know: 

  • To chaperone a field trip you will need to fill out this background check form by Secure Volunteer:  Click Here!

  • When we have a field trip, I will ask for chaperones and you will be chosen on a first come, first served basis as long as your background check is approved. It takes approximately 2-3 weeks for approval and you should receive an email from the district and a card in the mail once you have been approved. This approval is good for 3 years.

Classroom
or 
In School

You do not need a background check to make copies for teachers, to have lunch with your child, or to volunteer for events like Field Day. You do however need to check in at the Front Office.  Checking in requires a photo ID (driver's license). The computer will print a sticker to put on so others in the school can identify that you are a visitor on campus. You will need to check out when leaving as well. Parents will only be allowed in the designated workroom area and must attend a mandatory volunteer training at the school prior to using the copiers or any of the equipment in the workrooms. Parents are allowed 4 lunch visits throughout the year.
