At FIE, we are excited to have volunteers working with our students and staff! There are a few things to remember if you would like to come and volunteer. Each adult who wants to visit the school (beyond the office) must have a valid ID that will be scanned on each visit to the school. This could be a valid Drivers License or State Issued ID. This strictly enforced district policy is to ensure the safety of everyone in our building and we appreciate your willingness to comply.
Interested in chaperoning field trips or volunteering in your child's classroom? In an effort to ensure the safety of all of our students and staff, Greenville County Schools has implemented additional security checks for school volunteers. All volunteers must submit an online application to the district and receive clearance before volunteering at any school/center or chaperoning any school field trip. Access School Visitor and Volunteer Guidelines if you would like more information. It is important to remember that the approval process may take up to 2 weeks, so please plan ahead. This process must be repeated each school year.
The FIE Spirit Rock is a great way to share a special message for a FIE student or staff member! You could have anything from Happy Birthday, Congratulations, Good Luck, Thank a Teacher, etc. Please make sure you understand the rock rules before painting. All proceeds from the Spirit Rock will go toward fundraising for special field trips and events for our 4th Grade students. Please note the Sign-up Genius link is open now through the end of December. A new link will be posted starting in January 2027.
