Volunteer Info
The Parent Association encourages all parents to volunteer at the school. We have various volunteer options to fit everyone's needs, skills, and time limitations. Every bit of help counts and it is a meaningful way to build our community. If you think you could volunteer even for a small amount of time, please complete the volunteer survey. We will use your survey responses to reach out to you when we have a volunteer need that matches your interests.
Once the survey is completed you will receive an email with a .zip file that includes all of the volunteer forms and an orientation video. Please bring all completed forms to Ms. Maggie in the front office. Once you are cleared to volunteer, you will be asked to sign in at the front office and wear a volunteer badge upon visiting the school.

TB and Live Scan FAQ
Are TB tests good for 4 years and can come from any doctor/place as long as they have a copy of the results?
TB is good up to 4 years, so anything taken after 2021
Are Livescans good for the duration of the time the volunteer is at our school? So if someone got their Livescan from when the child was in Kindergarten, it will be good until 5th grade.
Live Scan is valid for one year from the date of the scan, they would need to get fingerprints if they haven't done so after one year.
Would we be able to verify volunteer LIvescan results from the past few years?
Please refer to my answer above regarding one year. We would not be able to see results taken for other organizations or jobs only for HTH with our billing code.
Is Livescan able to be transferred from other schools/work if they can get a copy of the results?
NO! Unfortunately this is not accepted by law. Your prints only go to one agency or employer at a time so you can't use one set of prints for two different live scans. Agencies or employers are not allowed to share a person's background check information with one another.
