Volunteering for Forney ISD

In an effort to maintain safety for our students and staff, Forney ISD requires all individuals who will be a volunteer or serve as a field trip chaperone to complete two steps:

1. Complete an online volunteer training module and assessment; and

2. Submit an authorization to conduct a criminal history check.

Both of these items must be completed annually. Forney ISD has practices in place to keep any information submitted through the form or obtained through the criminal history check secure/confidential. Participants will be notified of their status once the background process has been completed. Those applying for approval may also check with a campus office to determine if their participation has been cleared/approved. Individuals should allow a minimum of 5 business days for processing.

Questions regarding criminal history checks for volunteers, guests and participants, should be directed to Tommy Riggs, Executive Director of Human Resources at 469-762-4100 or tommy.riggs@edu.forneyisd.net.
