Clearances

School Secretary, Mrs. Barb McCarron will be in charge of all clearances for school volunteers. You may call or email and check your status at school@sspeterandpaulrc.org or 610-696-1000. NO VOLUNTEERS, including Mystery of the Week readers, will be admitted to school or on a field trip without all three clearances on file. All three clearances must be renewed EVERY 5 YEARS. All Volunteers and Visitors to school for classroom activities must report to the office, sign in as visitor/volunteer, and wear a badge while on campus.

The website, KeepKidsSafe.pa.gov, is designed to serve as the hub for information related to critical components impacting child protection including a link for mandated reporters to make reports of suspected child abuse electronically, training on child abuse recognition and reporting, information related to clearances and general information related to child protection.

Individuals, in order to work or volunteer with children, are required to obtain the following:

• Pennsylvania Child Abuse History Clearance;
• Pennsylvania State Police Criminal Record Check; and
• Federal Bureau of Investigation Criminal Background Check (fingerprints)
