Volunteering at SCE

One of the greatest strengths of SCE is our dedicated and involved parent volunteers.  Without your efforts, our success wouldn't be possible. 

• Grade Level Field Trips
• Homeroom Parents and Classroom Parties
• Library Volunteers
• SCE Learning Garden
• SCE PTA Board or Committee

Follow the steps below to get started!  Have questions about volunteering at SCE? See our Volunteer FAQs 

Step 1: Complete your volunteer background check 

If you wish to volunteer in the Richardson ISD and at Spring Creek Elementary for the school year, you must complete the RISD Volunteer Application. 

RISD is now using Voly to manage school volunteers and volunteer opportunities. Create your Voly account today by clicking here:  

Check back often to see the different volunteer opportunities on all RISD campuses!

STEP 2: LOG YOUR Hours

After volunteering, don't forget to log your hours! Logging your hours is EASY!!

AT SCHOOL: We keep track of your volunteer hours when you are actually at school based on when you sign in and out of the volunteer log.  Please make sure you sign in as a VOLUNTEER and not as Visitor so we will see your entry!  

AT HOME: We need for you to keep track of your off-site volunteer time which are called HOME HOURS.  We will send out a reminder at the end of each month to make sure and report these hours but you can record them during any time in the month.   Please click the button below to submit your volunteer hours. 

You may also submit hours by emailing volunteer@springcreekpta.org. You don't need to know the exact date - just give the month and cumulative hours volunteered. 

WHY LOG HOURS

RISD grants award levels to schools based on volunteer hours. Each school year, SCE easily exceeds the required hours to meet the PLATINUM Award status, which is ten times the school's student enrollment. We are proud of this tradition and encourage you to submit your hours to maintain the status. If it benefits the school, it counts as hours!
