With Regard to Student Safety

Because we want our school community to feel safe and comfortable on our campuses, we have policies and guidelines that volunteers are asked to follow. Our district has established a procedure that adheres to Utah State law requiring school districts to screen prospective volunteers. All unsupervised volunteers must complete a background check before serving in an unsupervised capacity. 

 

Volunteer Registration 

  • Volunteers must complete the volunteer application. 

  • Unsupervised volunteers then schedule a one-time background check. 

  • Background checks are completed at the District Office located at 406 E 100 S.

Volunteer Types

A Supervised Volunteer is:

Someone who volunteers with students under the strict supervision of district employees or someone who does not volunteer with students. Supervised volunteers must always be in the line of sight of a district employee and must never be alone with a student. Examples: volunteers in the classroom, front office/copy volunteers, and committee volunteers.  

An Unsupervised Volunteer is:

Someone who volunteers with students and may not be in the line of sight of district employees at all times. This includes volunteers who chaperone field trips, tutor students, and coach students.  Unsupervised volunteers must complete a background check through the school district prior to any volunteering. You can learn more about volunteer background checks under Frequently Asked Questions.
