Volunteer Requirements

 

Fingerprinting Process
 
SMFCSD requires volunteers who work directly with students on or off campus to get fingerprinted.
  1. Obtain a Livescan Request Form from the front office.
     
  2. Take the form to any facility that offers Live Scan fingerprinting services, such as UPS and Postal Annex, and get fingerprinted. 

    Live Scan fingerprinting services incur a fee of $90. If you need financial assistance, contact the front office.

     

  3. Return the completed Live Scan form to the school front office.
     
  4. The school will submit the form to the Human Resources department for a background check, which will check the fingerprints against state and federal databases. Please allow 1-2 weeks for processing. 
     
  5. Once cleared, your information will be entered into the school's system, and you can begin volunteering at Parkside. 

    This clearance is valid for the entirety of your student's time at Parkside. If you have multiple students, it is valid until your last student leaves Parkside.
