General Volunteer Guidelines

All chaperones must be at least 21 years of age. (Policy: IJOA-R)
All volunteers will work with students under the immediate supervision and direction of a certificated person. (Policy: IJOC)
Volunteers with direct supervision are approved once per school year.
Background screening results are evaluated on an individual basis.
Substitutes must complete the online Raptor application in order to volunteer.
Please arrive on time for a scheduled volunteer opportunity.
Give school personnel as much notice as possible if you are unable to fulfill your commitment. The scheduled event may need to be altered if a volunteer becomes unavailable.
Discussion with teachers and other staff should be focused on the volunteer work. Please arrange an appointment for a conference if you need to discuss your child’s work, behavior, or progress.
Discussion regarding students should be limited to the staff member with whom you are working. Confidentiality for our students is very important. Do not speak about specific students or teachers in the community or on social media. If you have an issue with a staff member, please speak with the building principal. If you have concerns about a student, speak with the classroom teacher.
Report discipline and behavior issues to the teacher.
Volunteers should speak with school personnel about safety procedures regarding emergency situations.
Please do not bring other children (students and non-students, including infants and non-school aged children) with you when you are volunteering. Children not enrolled in the class attending a field trip are not permitted to go.
Volunteers should refrain from using cell phones and other electronic devices during the time they are scheduled to supervise students.
Volunteers are expected to be role models to students. This includes behavior and attitude, as well as attire, use of language, and use of alcohol/tobacco.
