Dear Parents/Guardians/Volunteers,
As a school, we want to
encourage all of our parents/guardians to volunteer. Just as with
students, parents that are connected in some way to the school are more
informed and their students are more successful. We take the safety of
our students very seriously and when someone wishes to volunteer on
campus we ask that they take the following steps:
- Fill out a Volunteer Application which can be found in our Main Office or online under the “Parents” dropdown menu.
- Turn
in the Volunteer Application to our Vice Principal Secretary and
schedule a meeting with one of our VP's to discuss volunteer protocols
and gain approval.
Once approved, we ask that all of our
volunteers be fingerprinted. Volunteers who work with students without
direct supervision by a district employee must submit their fingerprints
for a criminal background check. As large as our campus is, it is
difficult to ensure that a volunteer is continuously under the
supervision of a staff member; therefore we require all volunteers
adhere to this requirement. We realize this requirement may be different
than your experience at prior schools but we have chosen to error on
the side of caution for the safety of our students. Fingerprints for
volunteers can be taken, free of charge, at the EGUSD Robert L. Trigg
Education Center, 9510 Elk Grove-Florin Road, Room 104 at the following
times:
- Mondays & Wednesdays 8:30-10:30 a.m.
- Tuesdays & Thursdays 2:30-4:30 p.m.
Once
we receive fingerprint clearance, the volunteer will be notified and
they will be immediately cleared to volunteer. We look forward to
working with our parent and community volunteers to make great things
possible for our students.
