Applications will all be available electronically for volunteers across Marion County Public Schools.
According to a Marion County Public Schools press release, the district will begin a new volunteer applications process starting on Monday, November 1.
Any interested volunteers will need to fill out an electronic application that, starting on Monday, will be available through the Marion County Public School volunteer website, or on each school’s homepage.
Each volunteer applicant will then be screened, and a background check will be performed, to make sure that they are cleared to be on campus.
The cost of the background checks will be covered by the district. After review of the application, the district will communicate the results to the applicant.
Hard-copy applications will no longer be required or accepted for anyone wanting to volunteer.
MCPS states that the all-electronic process will allow them to screen the volunteers more efficiently.
