Volunteers are
a vital part of student success in Duval County Public Schools. More
than 27,000 volunteers support schools each year and the number is
growing. The employees of the Department of Community and Family
Engagement work hand and hand with volunteer liaisons at schools to
encourage interested parents and citizens to join us in our mission to
provide every student with a high quality education. You can help by
becoming a volunteer today.
To ensure the safety of our students, volunteers who will be at the
school more than once, must complete an application and undergo a
criminal background screening, free of charge. Please note--DCPS is no
longer using volunteer cards as proof of clearance. Designated school
staff will verify volunteer clearance using our online process. Anyone,
including parents, who will visit the campus more than once to help must
complete the process.
Each Duval County Public School has priorities set by their school
leadership team that are based on the needs of the students. Liaisons
assist by aligning volunteers and partners with school needs. Principals
have oversight regarding volunteers and volunteer opportunities at each
school.
