Volunteer Assistant Program
Welcome Volunteers!
Ceres Unified School District encourages parents, guardians, and members of the community to share their time, knowledge, and abilities to support our students and our schools. We believe school volunteers enrich educational programs and strengthen our schools’ relationships with families, businesses, public agencies, and private institutions.
To ensure and enhance the safety and well-being of CUSD students, CUSD will be using an online Volunteer Application through the Raptor Program. CUSD will be implementing the volunteer approval process for Supervised, Unsupervised and Pre-School Volunteers. All volunteers will need to fill out new applications every year. TB clearance is required to be uploaded for all volunteers, additional information may also be required.
Please allow 3-5 business days for applications to be processed.
The volunteer application is not formatted to be filled out on a cell phone, if you need assistance filling out your application please contact the school you are applying for and someone in the front office will be happy to assist you.
