Future Educators Seeking Field Experience,

In accordance with the Texas Education Code, Section 22.083, La Porte ISD may obtain criminal history record information on an individual who has indicated, in writing, an intention to serve as a volunteer. Completion of the online Field Experience Application at www.lpisd.org will serve as written intent to serve as a volunteer at a designated La Porte ISD campus and a release to conduct a criminal background information check. Criminal information obtained is confidential and used only for the purpose of ensuring student safety.

Future educators seeking to complete field experience classroom observations with La Porte ISD should take the following steps:

• Initiate the background/criminal history check process by completing and submitting a Field Experience application online at https://www.lpisd.org/.
• On the LPISD webpage, select Job Postings, Applicants & Volunteers tab and complete the Field Experience Application. Please note that field experience applications are purged annually.
• Complete the application timely as you may not be on our campuses without an approved background/criminal history check.
• Identify on the application the campus site(s) at which you wish to observe. Identify at least two sites to increase the probability that your request can be accommodated.
• Attach school documentation to your application, including: (1) verification of current enrollment in a class requiring completion of classroom observations. It must contain your name and a school contact name, phone number, and email. (2) course syllabus
• Please click on the Field Experience/Classroom Observations link located on the Human Resources webpage for further information.
