All parent readers must have a clear background check before volunteering
at a Klein ISD school. If you haven't done that, you need to go online at
www.kleinisd.net under community relations and click on volunteer and follow the steps. It has to be done
online and there are 2 forms you have to fill out….the Sign Me Up Form and Criminal Background Check Form and
then hit submit. It takes about 2 weeks to get those cleared
