Parents, we need Volunteers!

There are going to be so many opportunities to volunteer in the coming months.  Please get involved.

Background Checks

The first step to volunteering is filling out the district background check.  The system has changed this year, so everyone may need to create a new login.  Make sure you choose John Foster Dulles High School as one of your volunteer campuses so you will be on our list. Go to this link to fill out the volunteer background check https://www.fortbendisd.com/Page/133013.

Booster Board

We also have one opening on the Band Booster Club board.  We are looking for a VP of Membership. This volunteer serves as a membership chairperson in charge of keeping and maintaining current membership records and other related activities. They will also solicit volunteers for events and activities, track and report volunteer hours, and share membership/volunteer information as applicable to committee chairs. Please let us know if you are interested in serving in that capacity.

We are also looking for several committee chairs.  Please let us know if you are interested in chairing one of the committees below:

  • Tailgate Meals – Committee Chair will coordinate ordering, picking-up, and serving meals to students for several football games and contest days. Additional volunteers will be solicited to assist with setting up and serving meals at school or contest sites.
  • Homecoming Mums – Committee Chair will coordinate several volunteers to construct mums for the senior students. No creativity needed. Usually done in September.

  • Commemorative Spring Program – Committee Chair will coordinate the sale of family ads, commercial ads, and production of the program to be distributed at the Spring Band Concert in May.

As you can see, it will truly take a village to make this a successful year for our band.  Please get involved; the band needs all of us.  Please contact Angela at president@dullesbandboosters.org if you have any questions about volunteering.
