COMMUNITY RESOURCE PERSONS AND VOLUNTEERS

The board recognizes the valuable resource it has in the members of the school district community.  When possible and in concert with the education program, members of the school district community may be asked to make presentations to the students or to assist employees in duties other than teaching.  The school district may officially recognize the contributions made by volunteers.

Volunteer recruitment, training, utilization, and the maintenance of records for the purposes of insurance coverage and/or recognition of school district volunteers, are the responsibility of the superintendent or designee.

Whenever possible, background checks will be conducted on volunteers.  Volunteers serve without compensation. Volunteers shall comply with school district rules, regulations, policies, and procedures.
