VOLUNTEER

Looking to support Clark Band? Volunteering with the band is a deeply gratifying experience that offers a unique opportunity to play an active role in your student’s musical journey. As a volunteer, you'll contribute to creating a supportive and vibrant environment that enhances the band's performances and overall experience. Not only will you help facilitate exciting events and competitions, but you’ll also get to witness your students’ growth and achievements up close. Plus, it’s a fantastic way to meet other families and connect with the community. Come join us and share in the pride and joy of the Clark High School Band!

 

All Clark Band volunteers must complete the Plano ISD volunteer application, including a background check. If you are a Plano ISD employee, you are still required to complete the volunteer application. This step is required each school year. Applications for the upcoming school year are available beginning mid-July. Watch your email for approval prior to any volunteering. Thank you!

After completing the PISD Volunteer Application, you are welcome to sign up to volunteer! Curious where your talents are a great match? Check out the volunteer opportunities below. This is not an exhaustive list, but should give an idea of where we need the most support from parents and volunteers throughout the year.
