Volunteer

Share Your Time. Make a Difference.

Every volunteer—whether you help for one hour or throughout the year—helps create a better school experience for our students.

There is no minimum commitment, no special experience required, and many ways to help.

There's a Volunteer Role for Everyone

Whether you have one hour, one day, or a few hours each month, we'd love to have you on our team.

Volunteering is a great way to...

Be involved and create memories.
Be a part of your child’s elementary school experience and create lasting memories with them. Help plan fun events, and activities the whole family can attend.
Be a positive role model.
By becoming a member of our PTA, you’ll be a role model and demonstrate to your child the importance you place on their education and how helping is rewarding.
Be a part of Stocklmeir’s Community.
By volunteering you get to meet and work with teachers, students and other parents at Stocklmeir. You can share ideas, concerns, and experiences to make the school year better for everyone.
Be part of the solution.
By getting involved at Stocklmeir you can help make positive changes. Our PTA plays an important role in fundraising to provide improvements, curriculum-based programs, and social events.

How Do I Get Started?

We'd love to have you volunteer! Most PTA volunteer opportunities are easy to get started with—but some school-day activities require additional approval from the school district.

Volunteering During School Hours

If you'll be volunteering on campus during the school day—for example, helping in a classroom, the library, Project Cornerstone, or other school-day activities—Cupertino Union School District (CUSD) requires all volunteers to complete a few steps before volunteering:

Complete the CUSD Volunteer Information & Technology Agreement
Complete fingerprint/background clearance
Provide proof of a negative TB test (within the last four years) or submit a TB Risk Assessment Form signed by a healthcare provider

These requirements help ensure a safe environment for all students and staff.

More information about the CUSD requirement can be found here.

Good News! Most PTA Volunteering Doesn't Require These Steps

If you're helping with family events, evening or weekend activities, event setup or cleanup, fundraising, communications, or other volunteer opportunities outside of school hours, you do not need to complete the district volunteer requirements.

These opportunities are a great way to get involved without needing district clearance.

Not sure whether a volunteer opportunity requires district approval? Contact our Volunteer Coordinator—we're happy to help you find the opportunity that's right for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to volunteer regularly?

No! Many volunteers help with just one event each year.

Do I need previous experience?

No. We'll provide everything you need.

I work full-time. Can I still volunteer?

Absolutely. Many opportunities are evenings, weekends, or can be done from home.

My English isn't perfect. Can I volunteer?

Yes! Stocklmeir is an international community, and we'd love your help.

Can grandparents or other family members volunteer?

Yes! Grandparents and other family members are welcome to volunteer.

Do I need to complete volunteer requirements before I can help?

Only for certain volunteer roles. If you'll be volunteering on campus during the school day (such as helping in the classroom, the library, or other school-day activities), Cupertino Union School District requires volunteers to complete a Volunteer Information & Technology Agreement, fingerprint/background clearance, and TB clearance before volunteering.

For most PTA volunteer opportunities—including family events, evening and weekend activities, event setup, and many ways to help from home—these requirements do not apply.

Can I volunteer in my child's classroom?

Many classroom opportunities are coordinated through the teacher or Room Parent. Others are organized by the PTA.
