Ceres Unified School District
Volunteer Application Process
Ceres Unified School District encourages parents, guardians, and members of the community to share their time, knowledge, and abilities to support our students and our schools. We believe school volunteers enrich educational programs and strengthen our schools’ relationships with families, businesses, public agencies, and private institutions.
To ensure and enhance the safety and well-being of CUSD students, we use an online Volunteer Application Process through the Raptor program. For more information, please click HERE to visit our Volunteer page.

School to Business Partnerships
Since 2007, CUSD schools have developed formal partnerships with local businesses, resulting in support by the business of school site activities and events. Businesses have contributed staff time, materials, resources, and other in-kind contributions to each school. Each school site promotes the business at school events and activities as a sponsor. If you are a business interested in supporting a school in Ceres, please contact the principal of the school you want to partner with.
