Volunteering at Montgomery

There are many ways to get involved at MES!

ONE-TIME VOLUNTEERING Sign-Up Links

PTO Committees

We have a wide variety of committees that help out around the school. Volunteering with committees can be a one-time thing, a once a month thing, or as-needed! Please fill out this Google form so we can help you find a good match for your volunteering interests!

 

 

Classroom Needs 

Room parent, copy helper, courier preparation, library volunteer, class party planner, field trip chaperones, mystery reader, and lunch buddies. Your classroom teacher and room parents will reach out to you for these volunteer opportunities. 

 

Level 3 Volunteers

What is a Level 3 Volunteer? 

Level 3 Volunteers complete a brief training, go through a background check, and receive an official badge through the Dekalb County School District (DCSD) Department of Safety Office.

 

Why does the County have a Level 3 Volunteer process?

It was created by our Board of Education to better ensure student safety in situations where a school staff member is not present.

 

Do I have to be a Level 3 volunteer to help out at our school? 

Most volunteering at our school does NOT require Level 3.

 

You will need to become a Level 3 volunteer for these roles:

  • Field trip chaperone

  • School club volunteer

  • Any other school-related activities where school staff may not be present

What if I already went through the Level 3 process?

Your training and background check are good for three years. You do have to renew your badge each year. Please read below for how to renew!

Your training and background check are good for three years. If you completed the Level 3 process in the past two years, all you need to do is renew your badge.
