Background Checks for all Chaperones and Volunteers Working In Schools and/or with ACPS Students
Staff members are reminded to communicate to chaperones and volunteers that they must complete a background check prior to serving as a chaperone or volunteer. There is no charge for the background check: however, results of the check can sometimes take several weeks. Therefore, staff members should communicate to perspective chaperones and/or volunteers that they should complete the background check well in advance of scheduled field trips or activities they wish to chaperone or participate in as a volunteer. Individuals should come to the Human Resources Office on weekdays (except holiday breaks/inclement weather) from 9-10 AM and 2-3 PM Monday through Friday to complete background checks. Background checks are required to be updated every 10 years.
