Volunteers whose interactions with students are limited and who will always be within sight and hearing of staff members shall be considered OTHER volunteers. The duties of OTHER volunteers may include activities like distributing popcorn or chaperoning day field trips under the supervision of staff.
All volunteers must complete the following forms:
Volunteer Acknowledgement Form
1st time volunteers must complete the form above and attend a volunteer orientation. Copies of the forms will be available at the training. To save time you may want to print and complete the forms in advance to bring with you.
Volunteer Orientations will be offered multiple times throughout the school year.
Volunteers who serve on an ongoing basis and have one-to-one contact with students shall be considered designated volunteers. Mentors, homework helpers, overnight chaperones, and coaches are examples of designated volunteers.
Plan ahead it will take at least three weeks or more for finger printing to be reviewed and returned.
Contact: Joanna LaBrecque (reception@mansd.org) at Manchester School District for Volunteer Packet with finger printing information.
Complete the packet and return to Joanna LaBrecque at the
Manchester School District Main Office - 195 McGregor St. Suite 201 Manchester NH 03102.
Once your fingerprints have been returned and reviewed, the district will notify the school principal who was listed on your paperwork. The school will contact you directly once they receive this approval for you to start volunteering.
1st time volunteers must also attend a volunteer orientation at the school where they will be volunteering.
Volunteer Orientations will be offered multiple times throughout the school year.
Designated volunteers must volunteer at least every six months to keep their status active.
