ello Welby Way Families!!!
As we wind down the 2025 school year, we wanted to say THANK YOU to all our wonderful volunteers! All of you are a big part of what makes our Welby Community what it is, and we are so thankful for each and every one of you. We are looking forward to seeing all our new and returning volunteers in the fall. Start the application process now so you are all ready to volunteer when school starts. Please do not forget to return your volunteer badges at the office, as we need to collect the old badges before you receive your new ones.
Volunteer Application Process
***Fill out an application on LAUSD's Volunteer Management System: Volunteer Management System
1. Print the completed application, sign the volunteer commitment form, and bring in a copy of your TB test.
A. Sign the Volunteer Contract - a copy will pop up once you have filled out the application on the volunteer management system. There will be an option to print out two documents. This is one of them. Sign and bring this document in as well.
B. A new TB test must be completed every 4 years. If you are a new volunteer, your TB test results must be from the last 60 days. Please provide me with a copy of your TB test if you are a new volunteer or if it’s been 4 years since you last provided one. Applications cannot be processed without an up-to-date TB test.
If you are a volunteer at another LAUSD school, you must fill out an application for each school. If you filled out an application last year for the 24-25 school year, you must do one for the 25-26 school year. You must submit a new application every year.
All the documents listed above may be brought to the office or emailed to Laura Klein. Once you have been completely processed, you will receive an email from the district (Family and Community Engagement Department) saying you are approved. When your badge comes in, you will be called/emailed to pick it up at the office. There will be a volunteer meeting early in the school year that will go over the rules of volunteering – this meeting will be mandatory for volunteers to attend.
ONCE YOU ARE AN APPROVED VOLUNTEER
• The first time you volunteer on campus, you will come in and create a sign-in page in the volunteer folder. You will sign in here each time.
• You will present your badge each time you come into school and have it on you at all times.
• Volunteering in the classroom is at the discretion of Welby Way and your child’s teacher. Please discuss with your teacher the designated time that works to come into the classroom and help out.
As always if you have any questions do not hesitate to reach out to me – [email protected] or call the office at 818-348-1975.
We look forward to a successful new school year!
