VOLUNTEER COACHES

If you wish to be a volunteer coach, please leave this application and submit an application for volunteer coach instead, as the requirements are different.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

HOW WILL I KNOW I'M CLEAR?

Once your application is processed, you will get an EMAIL notification. If you have been cleared, you will be instructed to make an appointment to have a volunteer badge issued.

DO I ALSO HAVE TO BE FINGERPRINTED?

Volunteers typically only have to go through a fingerprint background check if they are expected to have Unsupervised Access to students (or will be on out of state or overnight trips with students). Most volunteers do not need to be fingerprinted, and will instead have a name and date of birth background check with the WA State Patrol.

Please consult the school principal who will be overseeing your volunteer role to determine if you need to be fingerprinted.

WHEN DOES MY VOLUNTEER STATUS EXPIRE?

At the end of the school year in which is it processed.
