Campus Volunteer Needs

Lunch Room Volunteers - Click here to volunteer - Daily Volunteers Needed!

We’re looking for volunteers to help monitor student lunches! 

Responsibilities include:

  • Ensuring students line up properly.
  • Assisting younger children with getting their plates and finding their seats.
  • Helping students stay seated and focused on eating.
  • Opening packaged items for little ones.
  • Encouraging students to clean up and throw away their trash when it's time to leave.

PreK Reading Volunteers - Click here to volunteer!

Our PK teachers are seeking enthusiastic reading volunteers to join us one day a week to help foster a love of reading in our youngest learners! Volunteers will read to small groups of students every Friday from 8:30-9 AM. You are welcome to bring your 3 favorite books or teachers will provide some. Please note, some days maybe canceled due to testing, special events, or holiday breaks. Also, you may not be placed in your child’s classroom, and volunteers will not be able to bring other young children along during the sessions. This is a wonderful way to make a positive impact and share your love of books with our early readers!

Trick or Treat Trail Candy Donations Needed!

We're aiming to collect 4,500 pieces of candy for our students! Ways to donate below:

Voly Registration

If you would like to volunteer on campus (this include participating in class parties or in-school events) then you will need to register through Voly. This registration must be renewed annually - it expires on June 30th of each year. 


Link to Voly registration: https://dallasisd.voly.org/

Make sure to fully complete your Voly registration - your screen will look like this when you are ready to go. All items must be green. 

Get the Geneva Gazette to your inbox!

To receive the Geneva Gazette directly to your inbox all you need to do is set up a Membership Toolkit account. This is not the same as a PTA membership - the membership toolkit is an account that allows you access to our PTA website & allows you to sign up for communications. If you have an account with another membership toolkit account, you can use that login. 


If you already have an account, please make sure your information is correct.
