Volunteers

Partnering with Mattos families and the community is essential to student success. If you would like to learn how you can volunteer at Mattos, please contact your child’s teacher and/or Mattos Principal, Sherea Westra, at swestra@fusdk12.net All volunteers must complete a CivicCore application and have it approved by our office staff. Please visit the FUSD Community Connections website for more details on completing the required application. In addition, all Mattos volunteers are required to check in and out at the office, wear a “Volunteer” sticker/badge while on campus, and must follow all site-specific protocols. 

Volunteers without clearance to independently supervise students must remain under the supervision and direction of a designated certificated employee while working with students.

Volunteers who independently supervise students (such as when driving or coaching students) must submit an application through CiviCore, and may need to meet additional requirements, such as:

• Volunteers who are transporting students must submit proof of insurance.
• Volunteers who are independently supervising students must undergo fingerprinting and a background check.
• Volunteer coaches must undergo fingerprinting and a background check, and must submit proof of a negative TB test from within the last year.
