Volunteer Application 2026-27

Volunteer Requirements The Brandywine Heights Area School District values parents and community members who offer their time to assist the staff and students of the district.

School Board Policy 916 Volunteers describes two different categories of volunteers:

• HELPER: An individual who voluntarily provides an unpaid service for the district at no charge on an infrequent basis and/or has limited contact with students. A helper will work with students under the direct supervision of a district employee. Helpers must sign and submit a Helper Affidavit and PDE 6004 Arrest/Conviction Report and Certification Form to the school office each time they help. Helpers do not need to submit this application.
• VOLUNTEER: An individual who voluntarily provides a service to the district on a recurring basis and/or has substantial contact with students. Said service does not necessarily have to be performed on consecutive days. A volunteer may be reasonably expected to work with students and/or without the direct supervision of a district employee. For example: classroom volunteer or field trip chaperone. Volunteers should click "apply" to continue.
