SCHOOL VISITORS
Beginning with the 2019-2020 school year all WRPS schools will begin using the Raptor Visitor Management System. Upon entering our building ALL visitors will be asked to report directly to the school office and present a valid state-issued ID which will be scanned into the Raptor system and a sticker for the visitor will be printed. A sticker will be REQUIRED for all visitors who will be moving beyond the school office. It will not be necessary to obtain a visitor sticker if you are stopping in the office to simply drop off an item, pick something up in the office, and/or drop off or pick up your student.
The safety of our students and staff is our highest priority. This is why all visitors to WRPS facilities are required to be scanned into the system and obtain a visitor sticker as described above. Thank you in advance for your understanding and support of these initiatives to enhance school safety.
VOLUNTEERS
All new volunteers are required to complete an online application which can be found on the district webpage. Please visit www.wrps.org/community/inschoolopportunities.cfm to apply.
All volunteers must be approved prior to volunteering in ANY capacity at our school, including, but not limited to, helping in the classroom and field trips. The deadline to submit your volunteer application is November 30th of each school year. Volunteer applications must be completed by following the link above and filling out the online application. Once the application is submitted you will receive email verification of your application status. Volunteer's will need to reapply every three years.
If you were approved as a volunteer during the 2016-2017 school year your status as a approved volunteer will need to be renewed for this school year. You will receive email notification advising your status is expiring.
