Volunteer Policy Updated
The Volunteer Policy has been updated and changes have been made. It was passed by trustees recently and is effective immediately. This will mean that any volunteer that comes into contact with a student will need a Vulnerable Sector Check.
Volunteers must also complete a Volunteer Application and Agreement Form. You may request a hard copy of these forms from the office. The Vulnerable Sector Check needs to be obtained for:
- classroom volunteers
- food program volunteers
- Library volunteers
- any parent wanting to go on a trip at any time during the school year whether walking or bus trip
- any activity where a parent will have any sort of contact with a student
I know this is an extra ask during a busy time but know that the new policy does prioritize student safety. Thank you for your help with this.
