Broadview-Thomson and the PTA love volunteers! Thank you for your interest!
Please see below for instructions on how to become a volunteer, then check out the opportunities here:

Lunch & Recess Volunteers:
We love having lunch and recess volunteers! (You must be an approved volunteer.) More info coming soon…

Volunteering On Campus:

Examples: Monitoring lunch and recess, volunteering in the classroom, or chaperoning field trips.

Steps to volunteer:

The process to become an approved volunteer has recently changed, and we are seeking clarification and will update this page soon. Here is the Volunteer page on SPS’s site: https://www.seattleschools.org/departments/volunteer/

Volunteering Off Campus:

For off-campus PTA events, such as picking up food bags from the Ballard Food Bank or organizing a Self-Help Project,
you do NOT need to be an approved volunteer. Find the SignUpGenius link for our Weekly Food Program at the top of this page or CLICK HERE.

Self-Help Projects:

  • A Self Help Project is any project to improve our school buildings or grounds and can be initiated by anyone!
    Read more about them HERE. Have an idea? Email Mckenzie.powell@broadviewthomsonpta.com with questions or to find out how we can support your plan.
