Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Level 1 Volunteer?Level 1 Volunteers are volunteers who have minimal interaction with students. Minimal interaction is defined as those volunteers who have direct student contact for less than one hour per month and/or no one-on-one student contact (e.g. assisting with day field trips, one-time classroom presentations, fundraising, and special events would still constitute minimal interaction).

These volunteers will not be subject to tuberculosis testing or fingerprinting; however, an automated records check to comply with Megan’s law reporting will be required to complete an application.
