IMPORTANT: SRVUSD Implements New Volunteer Requirements
*SRVUSD has a new system for ALL adults who wish to volunteer on a school campus or drive/chaperone day and overnight field trips.This new Volunteer Management System features a web-based software application that allows the District and all schools to better track and provide the appropriate level of clearance for school volunteers.
The District will NOT be asking parents to: incur any of the costs associated with these clearance processes. be fingerprinted (for the purposes of volunteering in our schools) again.
The new SRVUSD Volunteer Management System includes three (3) levels of volunteer clearance and tracking: 1) Classroom aides and other general school volunteers2) Field trip drivers3) Overnight chaperones During the online application process, you will be asked to choose the level or levels of clearance you will need based on your anticipated involvement.
ALL adult volunteers will need to go through this new process
*Level 1. Classroom Aides and other on-campus school volunteers: This is the most basic level, and includes completion of the Volunteer Online Application, and a search of the Sex Offender Registry.*This level of clearance will allow you to act as a volunteer in classrooms, support campus activities, and chaperone day field trips (as a non-driver).
*Level 2. Field Trip Drivers: At this level, the District will obtain a 10-year driving history and DMV “Pull Notification" ("Pull Notification" allows the District to be notified any time there is a reportable traffic violation or incident that is registered with the Department of Motor Vehicles). Also includes completion of the Volunteer Online Application, and a search of the Sex Offender Registry. *This level of clearance will allow you to transport students as a driver for field trips and extra-curricular activities. **Clearance for this level could take up to 14 days.**
*Level 3. Overnight Chaperones: We will be conducting background clearances on all Overnight Field Trip volunteer applicants. This is the most stringent level of clearance, and all volunteers who wish to chaperone on an overnight trip will be required to go through this process. It includes criminal background clearance through the FBI and Department of Justice. For additional requirements for chaperones who are also driving on a trip, see Level 2 above.*This level of clearance will allow you to act as a chaperone for overnight field trips and activities. **Clearance for level 3 could take approximately 30 days.**
