Dear Serra Family,

Junipero Serra High school believes effective communication between faculty and parents/guardians play an important role in the success of our students. In this vein, parent-teacher conferences are excellent opportunities to discuss your student’s academic achievements as well as areas of growth.

In an effort to better serve you, and in the end, our students, Serra is implementing a new online scheduler called VolunteerSpot.com for all future parent-teacher conferences. Long wait times will be reduced for both parents and teachers as a result of using this improved coordination. The user-friendly system will also make better use of your time by allowing you to select specific time slots for individual instructors.

VolunteerSpot.com is free to use and does not require you to make an account. The only information that will be necessary to provide is an email address and phone number which will be for contact purposes only.

In addition to being available on this website, instructions to begin using VolunteerSpot.com will be shared with you via email and will be included in the Daily Bulletin. Please check your email inbox for these invitations. These communications will be posted and sent well in advance of parent-teacher conferences ensuring you have a substantial tine to plan ahead.

Serra is confident this new and improved approach to scheduling parent-teacher conferences better suits the needs of all involved. We think you will enjoy using VolunteerSpot.com, and as always, look forward to seeing you soon!
