What volunteer opportunities are available at Las brisas?
Volunteering is an important part of supporting a child's education and school! There are many ways to get involved at Las Brisas, including PTSA volunteering and classroom volunteers. ​

PTSA volunteer opportunities include committees and event volunteers. You can learn more about our committees on our PTSA Leadership page. To help at a PTSA sponsored event watch for a digital signup in member emails and event pages, most events have 30 minute shifts or helping with cleanup.

School volunteering can include supporting your student(s) teacher in the classroom, or signing up to help in a PTSA coordinated opportunity! PTSA offers special training for all Classroom Party Planners, and throughout the year we coordinate the following: WISE Wagon, Book Fair, Picture Days, Field Day, and front office support when needed. 


To volunteer on campus during school hours you must be volunteer trained. This is school district policy and is necessary if you want to volunteer on any DVUSD campus and field trips. Learn more about trainings offered here. 
What do i do if i'm not receiving school notifications through text/email?

These digital flyers contain information about events, programs, schedules, and important updates. You can view all active flyers by selecting "View all Flyers" near the bottom of the flyer emails. If you're not yet receiving digital flyers from Peachjar, you can go to peachjar.com and sign up as a parent.
