The Lake Elementary School Board of Education recognizes and appreciates that volunteer assistance in schools can significantly enrich the educational program, increase supervision of students, contribute to school safety, and strengthen a school’s relationship with the community.
The Board encourages parents/guardians and other members of the community to share their time, knowledge and abilities with students. The Board, in compliance with California Education Code 35021 and Board policy 1240, requires school volunteers to be screened and authorized to volunteer/chaperone. Volunteers/Chaperones who may be in contact with students must arrange for a CA Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation fingerprint submission prior to volunteering. All volunteers are also required to be TB risk-assessed. These requirements are in place given an abundance of caution for student safety and well-being. In addition to the live scan and TB risk-assessment you will need to complete the Volunteer Agreement Form. If you wish to be a chaperone on a field trip the Guidelines for Volunteer Field Trip Chaperone Form will also need to be signed.
All forms are also available in the office.
Thank you for your generosity of time and service to Lake Elementary School students and staff!
