903.02 Community Resource Persons and Volunteers

The Board recognizes the valuable resource it has in the members of the District community. District administrators may ask members of the District community to make presentations to the students and/or to assist employees in duties other than teaching when the volunteering would be appropriate considering the needs of the educational program. The volunteer may be asked to agree to a criminal background check and/or a sexual abuse check. The district may officially recognize the contributions made by volunteers.

Recruitment, training, utilization, and the maintenance of records for the purposes of insurance coverage and/or recognition of District volunteers is the responsibility of the Superintendent.

Volunteers within the district are held to the same high standards of behavior as school employees and may be subject to background checks prior to interacting with the students in a volunteer capacity. It is the responsibility of the Superintendent or the Superintendent's designee to create regulations necessary to carry out this policy.
