Can you lend a hand?

Posted

Blaine school district superintendent Dr. Christopher Granger discussed volunteer opportunities at a Point Roberts community meeting at the community center on March 18. Volunteer applications for the district, which serves Point Roberts, will open online in the first week of July. Dr. Granger encouraged community members to apply early, noting, “It’s an opportunity to be in the building and be involved for your kids.”

Volunteers can apply to serve both at the main campus in Blaine and at the Point Roberts Primary School. To have unsupervised access to children, applicants must complete an FBI fingerprint check, which can be obtained at the Blaine Post Office. Supervised volunteers just need to obtain a Washington State Patrol background check.

Applications must be completed online and are located on the school district website at blainesd.org/page/volunteers. Once approved, volunteers will receive instructions via email on obtaining a volunteer badge. The district encourages applicants to be patient as the initial months of the school year often experience processing delays.

Questions can be directed to Tanya at 360/332-0717 or tcarter@blainesd.org
