“Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.” – Helen Keller.
Volunteer System Update
Starting in the 2024-2025 school year, the Beaverton School District will be using a new volunteer system. The Better Impact/myimpactpage will be going away and a new software system will be in place for the 2024-2025 school year.
New volunteers for the current school year should continue using the process listed below. Once available, ALL volunteers will be required to submit an application through the new software.
More information will be coming soon, and will be shared accordingly.

Step Two: Find Opportunities
Step Two: Find Opportunities
Volunteers are essential to the success of Cedar Mill Elementary. At this time, the plan is to announce opportunities throughout the school year via ParentSquare announcements and the Lapping Lumberjack newsletter. Examples of some opportunities that will be available are Art Literacy, chaperoning, cafeteria support, Oregon Battle of the Books (OBOB), picture day, library support & more. See our PTC Programs & Volunteering deck for detailed information. You can sign up to volunteer through the Raptor system, and opportunities will be posted as they become available:
1. Head to the Raptor Login Page. Note: You will only be able to log in once you are approved through the district
2. Sign-in.
3. Click “Events” from the top menu bar. From there, you can sort by date or event name to sign up for events.
Additional Information
Please note that the volunteer system through the Beaverton School District has recently changed from Better Impact to Raptor Technologies. We expect it will take time for all of us (staff, PTC, volunteers) to adjust to this new system. For those of you who have volunteered through Beaverton School District in the past, the login process at the school will be a bit different then before as well.
Please come to school with your Raptor password memorized or written down, as there is no longer the option for an app for volunteers.
If you are having trouble navigating the system at home, please refer to this tip sheet. You can also reach out to volunteercoord@cedarmillptc.org with any questions.
