Volunteer Application

 

Saugus Union School District thanks you for your interest in serving as a volunteer. The time you spend volunteering with students can have a huge impact on their self-esteem, behavior, academic achievement, and social development.

Volunteer services can encompass a wide variety of activities and/or areas of interest. While the list below is not all inclusive, the following are some examples of common volunteer opportunities: After School Volunteer (Level 2), Chaperone (Level 2), Classroom Helper (Level 1), Office Helper (Level 1), Library Helper (Level 1), Fundraising (Level 1), Parent Committee Member (Level 1), Read With Me Volunteer (Level 1), Tutor (Level 1), Valet (Level 1).

The levels associated with each volunteer function are based on being under the direct supervision of District staff. A Level 1 (L1) volunteer is always under the supervision of District staff. A Level 2 (L2) volunteer may not be under the direct supervision of District staff and will be required to submit to a LiveScan criminal background check at his/her own cost. For a one-time Level 2 activity, the cost is approximately $43, for on-going Level 2 activities, the cost is approximately $72. Regardless of what form or direction your volunteer services take, your generosity in donating time, assistance, and/or expertise is very much appreciated. With the generous and caring support of volunteers such as yourself, the opportunities to meet the individual needs of each student are greatly increased.

The following webpages constitutes the application for volunteer service. It may be beneficial to review the documents on the District website (https://tb2cdn.schoolwebmasters.com/accnt_533114/site_533115/Documents/Volunteers.pdf) before you begin. If you have selected to perform functions requiring a LiveScan criminal background check, staff from your school office will contact you.

We believe that volunteering with the Saugus Union School District will add a positive dimension to your life in addition to the many benefits our students and staff will receive as a result of your involvement. If you have any questions regarding any aspect of the volunteer experience, please do not hesitate to contact the Site Principal for further information. On behalf of our students and staff, all volunteer assistance is deeply appreciated and we look forward to your association with Saugus Union School District.

Warm regards,


Colleen Hawkins, Ed.D.
Superintendent
