Family Involvement, Clubs, & Activities

School Safety Patrol is made up of 4th and 5th grade students.

Students are required to follow directions from patrols. The patrol’s job is to ensure student safety on our campus.

To support participation and to ensure both teachers and parent volunteers can focus entirely on the children in the classroom, the following guidelines have been adopted.

Siblings may accompany parents for:

• Assemblies and concerts during school hours
• After-school events
• In the lunchroom for special occasions. Make arrangements ahead of time with teacher.

Siblings are not allowed:

• In the workroom/staff lounge.
• At recess.
• When parents chaperone field trips.
• When parent volunteers are in the classroom.

The Associated Student Body (ASB) council will serve as the governing body for elementary schools, with each fifth-grade class electing representatives to the council. Students will be elected to serve either the fall or spring term, providing numerous student leadership opportunities. Students must maintain good academic standing and behavior to be eligible for election and serve on the ASB. The purpose of the student council is to propose, discuss, and vote on initiatives that benefit the school community.

If you plan to step onto school grounds, either in the playground area or inside the front doors, a visitor’s badge needs to be obtained from the electronic sign-in system in the office. You will need your driver’s license to sign into the system. Our Schools utilize high-tech camera systems at the school’s main entry to monitor and grant access to visitors. Visitors must use the camera entry system to be allowed into the building. This safety feature will enable our schools to lock the front doors and monitor who is granted access to the building from 9:05 a.m. - 3:25 p.m. The camera console includes a built-in doorbell. Guests to the school can expect and should follow this procedure:

• Visitors to the building should depress the doorbell and look into the camera.
• Once the doorbell is rung, the main office is notified that someone is at the door. The console allows the school office staff to speak with visitors. The school’s secretaries might ask guests to state the purpose of their visit and possibly additional probing questions before visitors will be “buzzed in” to the school.
• When guests are "buzzed in," there is an audible clicking sound, which indicates that visitors can pull the doors on the far right and enter the building.
• Enter the building and go straight to the office on your right.
• Anyone entering school grounds must still sign in at the office with a driver’s license.

ALL VISITORS need to sign in at the office upon arrival and wear a Visitor Badge throughout their stay. Our electronic sign-in system generates visitor badges. A driver’s license is necessary to sign in with our system.

We make every effort not to disturb classes in progress. Items being dropped off (lunches, lunch money, books, food for the class, etc.) for individual students or a class can be left at the office. Your child’s teacher will be notified of the delivery at their next class break or recess.

The Snoqualmie Valley School District welcomes the involvement of families and community members who are committed to supporting the success of our students. If you are interested in volunteering at school, please inquire about opportunities at your school office and follow the steps below. Volunteer applications are processed at each school site. If you're approved by one school, you'll also be eligible to volunteer at any other Snoqualmie Valley schools for two years.

All who volunteer in our schools must be approved as follows: 

1. Read the SVSD Volunteer Handbook.
2. If you agree to these guidelines, please fill out and sign the Volunteer Applications and return the forms to your school office with a copy of your official photo identification - needed to process a background check. (If you are applying to volunteer for a specific event, please allow at least 48 hours prior to your event.)
3. You will be notified via email when your application is approved. If approved, your volunteer application is good for two years, at any Snoqualmie Valley school.
