How to request a Volunteer Classroom Speaker

|Volunteer Classroom Speaker Request Form|

 * Review the information on the program or the volunteer speaker you would like to request. Decide on a subject area and definite objective for the resource volunteer. Please note that some topics are available only for certain grades.

*  Use the Teacher Request form in the Volunteer Notebook for general requests or select the correct request form for that specific program/volunteer, (Please copy and leave originals in the book) then pony or fax it to the Volunteer Services office. Or we encourage you to view this information via the District 11 web page and place your request(s) online as explained below.

*   Included in the notebook is also a form for requesting multiple speakers for special event days. (Please copy and leave originals in the book)

*   Requests must be received by Volunteer Services three (3) weeks in advance of the date a Resource Volunteer is requested.

To view the program flyers or to make requests online please log on to the D11 website at:

1.       www.d11.org/volunteers/  

2.       Then select All Program Forms to access all of the forms. 

3.       Make sure to click on submit when you have finished filling out your form.

 *   When the Resource Volunteer has been scheduled, the requesting teacher and the Resource Volunteer will receive written notification confirming the date, time and subject to be presented, as well as, an indication of equipment or materials needed for the program.

 *   Evaluation forms accompany the confirmation to give the requesting teacher and Resource Volunteer an opportunity to comment on their experience. This feedback is valuable to the volunteer, the teacher and  Volunteer Services.  Volunteer Services wants to insure a quality experience for District Eleven students.  Completing an evaluation allows us to improve the placement of the program and provide suggestions to volunteers for improvement. 

*   Thank you notes written by students are appreciated a great deal by the Resource Volunteers. You can put them in the inter-district mail and we will forward them to the volunteer.
