VIPS

  • Welcome to your volunteer experience with HISD schools and programs! We appreciate your interest in supporting our students and thank you for your investment of time and care. As a new or continuing volunteer, you will have the support of a campus VIPS Coordinator and other staff as you carry out your volunteer assignment.

    Volunteers support the district’s main goal: to positively impact student achievement. By serving as a mentor, tutor, chaperone, and role model, you are supporting HISD students, parents, and the future generations of the Houston community. Your work has special significance for our school communities and can be life-changing for our students.

     Thank you for all you are doing to support Houston ISD and our students!
