Victoria Independent School District (VISD) is proud to announce the launch of its new Volunteer Program, inviting community members to actively participate in shaping the future of our schools and enriching the lives of students.
The VISD Volunteer Program aims to foster a deeper connection between the school district, its students, and the local community. With an emphasis on collaboration and shared responsibility, this program welcomes individuals of all backgrounds to contribute their time, skills, and passion to support education in Victoria.
Why Being a School Volunteer Matters:
Beneficial to the School: Volunteers play a pivotal role in enhancing the educational experience for our students. Whether assisting in the classroom, library, or during extracurricular activities, volunteers provide valuable one-on-one attention, allowing teachers to focus on personalized instruction. They help create a nurturing and supportive environment where students can thrive academically and emotionally.
Strengthens the School District: The VISD Volunteer Program strengthens our district by building a network of dedicated individuals who share our commitment to education. By working together, we can address specific needs and challenges within our schools more effectively. Volunteers bring fresh perspectives and ideas, enriching the educational experience for all.
Empowers Community Members: Being a school volunteer is a meaningful way for community members to give back. By investing their time and expertise in our schools, volunteers become role models, mentors, and sources of inspiration for our students. They play a crucial part in shaping the future of our community by investing in the education of our youth.
"Victoria ISD is thrilled to continue promoting our Volunteer Program as a platform for community engagement," said Dr. Quintin Shepherd, Superintendent of Victoria ISD. "We believe that by working together and connecting genius by working with our dedicated volunteers in serving students, we create a brighter future for our students and a stronger, more connected community."
The VISD Volunteer Program welcomes individuals from all walks of life, whether parents, retirees, professionals, or students looking to make a positive impact. Volunteers can assist with tutoring, mentoring, organizing events, or contributing their unique skills to various school programs.
