Registering as a Hays V.I.P. Volunteer
In order to volunteer at a Hays CISD school, you must first register as a volunteer online so a quick background check can be run. This background check is instant, and approval is usually given within minutes.
- Register here
- Create an account and wait for an email confirmation of approval (usually sent within minutes)
- Once you are in the system Kaci Goodman (Negley front office staff) can print an official Volunteer badge for you! This is a reusable badge and is meant to be worn when on campus volunteering. To get a badge, send a headshot photo to Kaci at Kaci.Goodman@hayscisd.net
- You can now volunteer at any Hays CISD school. You must bring your driver's license when you volunteer. Check in at the front office and either bring your volunteer badge or get your volunteer pass for the day.
- If you have any problems contact negleypta@gmail.com or Keyawna.Glaze@hayscisd.net
Logging Volunteer Hours
After you have volunteered for any Hays CISD school, you need to log your volunteer hours. The amount of volunteer hours helps the district qualify for grants, keep record of who was on campus and why, and is used to select a Volunteer of the Year for each campus at the end of the year.
You can log ANY hours you spend volunteering for Hays CISD, even if the volunteering was not done on campus. For example, folding shirts for Negley PTA at home, running an errand for Negley PTA, planning Negley's dance, and cutting out shapes for a teacher at home are all volunteer hours that can and should be logged.
