Volunteer Opportunities

We have updated the process to streamline the application for better reporting requirements and make it as easy as possible for volunteers to submit the proper documentation.

Application instructions:

1. Talk with your school secretary about upcoming volunteer opportunities
2. Complete the Volunteer Application (https://bit.ly/SSDVolunteerApplication). This application will only need to be submitted once and will be valid for all upcoming school years.
3. Once your Volunteer Application has been received, your school secretary will send you the Background Check information. 
4. Once the Background Check is approved, you are welcome to volunteer in any Summit school.

Please note, there is a Background Check fee due at the time of submission. Approved background screenings are valid for 12 months, at which time they will need to be renewed.

Thank you for being a part of SSD, your time and efforts are extremely appreciated.

New Colorado legislation has prompted greater need to screen and document volunteers in our schools. Therefore, beginning January 2022, we must ensure that every volunteer completes a brief application and background check prior to volunteering for activities in SSD schools. The good news is you only need to complete the background check once per school year, and it will meet the requirement to volunteer in all SSD buildings. 

The safety and security of our students and staff remains our top priority. Every person entering our buildings must have a District ID or a badge printed from the Raptor System.

From the classroom to the library to the lunchroom, there are many volunteer opportunities at every school. If you are interested in volunteering at a particular school, please contact that school directly. Our schools know best where they need volunteers.

If you aren't sure what school you'd like to volunteer, refer to our Contact Us page to find a school near you.
