Parents and Students

We have updated our procedures for volunteering and field trips.

Same-day Field Trips

When you visit a campus or chaperone/attend a field trip  you will need to provide one of the following forms of
identification to be processed through Raptor:

United States driver's license
Identification card
Passport
Military ID

Overnight Field Trips

If you are serving as a chaperone for an overnight field trip,  you will be
required to complete a background check form at least 5 business days prior to
the event.

Please contact your child's school for additional information or if you have questions.

Being a mentor can make a difference in a child’s life. NBISD schools welcome any parent or community volunteer that would like to mentor a child. Each campus has a Communities in Schools (CIS) Program Coordinator on site that can be contacted for more information. All mentors must complete and pass a background check. 

When it comes to parental involvement there is no other better way to get involved than to join the campus PTA. Every campus in NBISD has an active PTA. The district also has a District PTA Council to assist with the collaboration between schools. For more information, join online.

Several campuses have groups for dads or other male role models to join and get involved. Watch D.O.G.S. is one program that allows male role models to be on campus and demonstrate with their presence that education is important and provide an extra set of eyes and ears to enhance school security, reduce bullying and provide a great sense of campus safety allowing students and teachers the ability to focus on learning and instruction. 

All Pro Dads is another nationally recognized program that brings dads and their kids to school on a monthly basis to engage in meaningful conversations and activities centered around a character-based curriculum.
