Identification Verification, Fingerprinting, Tuberculosis Screening/Testing
What is the definition of a school volunteer?
A volunteer is any caring adult in the student’s life or a member of our local community who willingly and freely gives their time, regardless of frequency and duration, to support educational programs. Morgan Hill Unified values volunteers and the positive contributions they make to our schools and programs.
What are examples of volunteer opportunities?
Volunteer opportunities may fall into any of the following categories:
-
Ongoing: Volunteering for any school program regularly in any capacity
-
As-needed: Volunteering on school grounds, in the office, or in the classroom one time or intermittently
-
Face-to-face: Volunteering with direct contact with students, either under the supervision of an employee or, at times, as the sole adult supervising students (i.e., during a field trip, going to the library, leading a club, etc.)
-
School-sponsored trips: Athletics, band, field trips, science camp, etc. either as a driver or as a chaperone
Interested volunteers will complete and submit a volunteer packet directly to the school to learn more about the opportunities available at that site. Prior to volunteering, all prospective volunteers must be cleared through Human Resources:
Human Resources Volunteer Processing
MHUSD District Office
15600 Concord Circle, Morgan Hill, CA 95037
Tuesday & Thursday 12:30 PM – 3:30 PM
Effective September 17, 2022
Prospective volunteers will bring the following items to Human Resources:
-
Driver's License, California ID, Permanent Resident Card, or Passport
-
Tuberculosis Risk Assessment or test results (form available in Human Resources)
-
LiveScan form (available in Human Resources)
Once TB results are on file and fingerprints are cleared, the volunteer will be called to pick up a volunteer badge. This badge should be worn whenever the volunteer is on a school site or school sponsored trip. This badge indicates that a volunteer has been cleared and, once approved by the site for a volunteer opportunity, may be used at any site or program as evidence of clearance.
