Odessa - Thirty years after the Volunteers in Public Schools Program began, it has provided 24-million-dollars in classroom assistance. Debbie Rogers, Community Liaison Specialist for ECISD, told CBS 7 Closer Look that the VIPS Program recruited 17,000 volunteers who worked for one-point-seven-million hours for teachers and students. Volunteers are a huge asset for teachers who receive assistance in the classroom and behind the scenes. VIPS grade papers, go on field trips and special events, and many other jobs to assist in the classroom. Rogers urged viewers to volunteer for the program which has been so successful for ECISD.
