Needs From: Belmont Office of Community-Engaged Learning and Service

Joelton Elementary School is in need of volunteer test proctors from April 20th through April 30th.

Proctors are essential for all schools undergoing TCAP or end of course testing. You will help monitor students and assist the classroom teacher as students take their tests. Other volunteer functions may be assigned (such as hallway monitoring, assisting with restroom breaks, or other real-time needs of the school). 

Proctor Schedule

8:00AM - 11:00AM

Arrive at 8:00 a.m. Park in the front parking lot. Check in with the front office staff. Bring your ID.

*Note: Your shift may vary in length, with some tests lasting 90 minutes, and some closer to 40 minutes - please be prepared for either case.

Training and Expectations

PENCIL provides training through our annual Proctor Party, hosted Thursday, April 2. You can sign up for this training here, or you may sign up to volunteer as a proctor without participating in PENCIL's training. Expect the school to also provide some short training and expectations when you arrive for your proctoring shift. 

Incentives

One lucky test proctor will receive a FREE Southwest Airlines round trip ticket as a thank you from PENCIL for volunteering in this much needed activity across MNPS! To be entered to win, you must complete a proctoring shift through one of our posted PENCIL Connect proctoring opportunities (such as this one). 

Please contact PENCIL's Director of Partnerships, Alayna Cate, acate@pencil615.org if you have any questions for PENCIL - or contact the school directly otherwise.

Thank you for volunteering!

Joelton Elementary's kindergarten friends are in need of monitors to help with their computers during their WIN time ("What I Need" - this is a personalized learning time). Kindergarten WIN time is Monday-Friday from 10:15am-11:00am.

This is a daily occurrence in their schedule, but volunteers can support at their desired frequency - one time, weekly, whenever you are available!

Please contact Sarah Finney at sfinney@fcsnashville.org for more information.
