Volunteer Registration Form

Woodstock Elementary School welcomes parent and community member volunteers. The School Volunteer Handbook provides descriptions for the various volunteer jobs. There are sure to be tasks that match you talents and interests. Please review the handbook and then complete the Volunteer Registration Form to let us know how you’d like to get involved.

Application to Volunteer - Criminal Background Check

Portland Public Schools take every precaution to ensure the safety of our children. All school volunteers must complete a Application to Volunteer form. These background checks need to be renewed every three years. The school office maintains a list of approved volunteers and will gladly check to see if your paperwork is current. Field trip chaperones also need to have current background checks on file.

Application to Volunteer forms are included in the Woodstock Back to School Packet and are available in the school office. The cost for running the criminal background check is $5.00. Our PTA defrays this cost.

Confidentiality Agreement

Volunteers are expected to respect student privacy. Under Federal law, state law and Portland Public Schools policy student information is confidential. School volunteers are expected to maintain these high standards and must sign a Confidentiality Agreement. This agreement is included in the Back to School Packet.

Medical Information for Volunteers

The safety of our volunteers is also important and we need to have emergency information on file for our volunteers. Thank you for completing the Medical Information Form for Volunteers that is included in the Back to School Packet.

Volunteers make Woodstock School a very special place and are a vital part of our educational program. Thank you for supporting Woodstock School!
