Volunteering
Parents interested in volunteering should contact their school site directly to obtain a fingerprinting appointment. All volunteers will also require an Internal Volunteer Request form which can also be obtained from the front office staff at your school site. All volunteers must be cleared by the District prior to participating in school activities.
Please note that fingerprint clearance may take several weeks. It is vitally important that prospective volunteers secure their fingerprints well in advance of all activities requiring fingerprint clearance.
