Help keep our schools safe! Use our volunteer screening process to vet your volunteers. We all know it takes a village to create successful school communities - that includes great teachers, leaders, involved parents and volunteers! Please be mindful when allowing volunteers into your school that ALL non-SCS employees are required to complete the volunteer screening process before helping in our schools. The screening process is easy and helps us keep our staff and students safe. Contact T'Challa Pollard to get your current and future volunteers screened.
