Volunteers on Campus

Volunteers at a school must sign in and out, must wear a visitor badge at all times, and must follow all site-specific protocols.

Volunteer Clearance

Volunteers without clearance to independently supervise students must remain under the supervision and direction of a designated certificated employee while working with students.

Volunteers who independently supervise students (such as when driving or coaching students) must submit an application through CiviCore, and may need to meet additional requirements, such as:

  • Volunteers who are transporting students must submit proof of insurance.
  • Volunteers who are independently supervising students must undergo fingerprinting and a background check.
  • Volunteer coaches must undergo fingerprinting and a background check, and must submit proof of a negative TB test from within the last year.
