Emanuele School - Volunteer Process - 2024-2025
Hello Emanuele Families,
We are always very excited to have so many parents interested in volunteering. I know there is a lot of information on this email, but please read it thoroughly, if you are interested in becoming a volunteer. Please click on the attached form and fill it out to become a school volunteer.
1. For volunteers who already have met the district requirements, please fill out a new volunteer form and submit it to Mrs. Diana Christy in the office or by email. She will then forward it to Ms. Thea Phillips at the ESC who will send you the information to complete the 5 hours of Safe Schools Training which needs to be completed EVERY school year.
2. For NEW volunteers who plan to volunteer more than once and inside of classrooms, your volunteer application will be submitted to the District Office, once the application & # 1 & 2 (below) are submitted to Mrs. Christy.
District Requirements:
1. 2 Forms of ID
2. Negative TB Skin Test or Risk Assessment - Volunteer pays the cost. You will need to make a doctor appointment. It may take a week or two depending on your doctor's office availability. If you are or have been positive for TB, you will need an x-ray.
3. Fingerprint Clearance - Volunteers pay the cost. Ms. Thea at the ESC will email you the Live Scan form needed after the initial volunteer form and #'s 1 & 2 are given to Mrs. Christy.
4. Safe Schools Training - Ms. Thea will also arrange this for you. Please allow 5 hours for the online training. You don't have to do it all in one sitting.
3. For volunteers for OUTSIDE events only, you simply have to fill out the volunteer form and turn it in to the office.
Please fill out the complete form and fill in each box. Even though it says the top part is to be filled out by the site principal, head coach or certificated lead, we ask that you fill it out, except for the principal's signature. Your signature is required on the front and back page (or 2nd page.) If any information is missing your application will not be processed as you will have to come in and fill it in right and this will delay your application.
This process could take 3-4 weeks. More info will follow about volunteer opportunities such as picture day, vision and hearing screening, jogathon, book fair and more. You may also pick up a volunteer form in the office.
Please remember this is all for the safety of the children, staff and families. Thank you for your time! We sincerely appreciate your time.
If you have any questions, please email Mrs. Diana Christy at dchristy@nhusd.k12.ca.us
