Volunteers
   do not necessarily have the time,
       they just have the
heart.

How can I volunteer with Friends of BES?


Picture
The #1, best and easiest way is to volunteer is to sign up to become a member of Friends of BES.  Here is a link to the membership form that you can either drop in our box at the school office or mail to the school office where they will put it in our box.

Once you are a Friends of BES member, now you're cookin' with gas! 

The 2nd step is to become an official registered volunteer with Bristol Elementary School.  Most public schools require all volunteers to get finger printed (every 3 years) and pass a background check (every year). To be a member of Friends of BES, you do not need to complete this step, however, many of our events that ask for volunteers will (of course!) be at the school.  SO, to volunteer at a school event, you will need to go through this process.  Its painless, free, and helps keep our kids SAFE. 
Win - win.

Volunteer Registration Form
MAUSD Fingerprint Authorization Form
NCPA Release Form

When these forms are completed, they are to be returned to Jenni Utter at the front desk.

Now that you've done the (not so bad) leg work, you are ready to go!  What's next? 

Come to meetings.  If you can't, read the minutes on our blog so you know what's up.
Tap in to our community by showing up and sharing your thoughts, or just smiling and listening.  At meetings you'll find out what's needed, as well as where and when. 
Most of all, we need your presence because your kids need your presence, and we'll help  point you in the right direction.  Like...
  • A Bake sale... bring on the rice crispy treats you made after the kids went to bed because you can't take time off but rice crispy treats you can do.  Love it.
  • Walking your kiddo and your neighbors kiddo around to sell wrapping paper on the day you took off for early release?  Perfection. 
  • Showing up 30 min before pic up time to help out Sheila or Jenni in the office with some admin work... the list goes on an on.  

Small or large, your time and effort is noticed, appreciated, and NEEDED. 

When you volunteer with Friends of BES...

...you are showing up for your kid's education!
