Policy: IJOC
Volunteers
The District recognizes the valuable contribution made to
the total school program through volunteer assistance of parents
and other citizens. Because a priority of the school board
and the administration is the health and safety of Lyme students,
and in keeping with state laws, “designated volunteers”
are required to undergo a background investigation and a criminal
records check. A “designated volunteer” is any
volunteer so designated by the School Board or Superintendent,
as well as any volunteer who:
1. Comes in direct contact with pupils on a
daily basis
2. Meets regularly with students
3. Meets with students on a one-on-one basis
Designated volunteers are subject to the provisions of Policy
GBCD, Background Investigation and Criminal Records Check.
