When visiting the campus, please be prepared for the following updated procedures:
- ID Scan: All visitors, volunteers, and contractors must present a valid government-issued photo ID, such as a driver's license or state ID card.
- Screening: The Raptor system will scan the ID and check it against the national Sex Offender Registry and the state Harm to Student Registry. This screening is a confidential and discreet process.
- Visitor Badge: Once approved, visitors will be given a temporary visitor badge that includes their name and photo. This badge must be worn for the entire duration of the visit.
Individuals interested in volunteering at the school must follow these steps:
- Application: An online application must be completed. Prospective volunteers can apply here:
- Background Check: All applicants must pass a background check before they can participate in school activities.
- Approval: If cleared, individuals will be able to sign up for volunteer opportunities. If an application is denied, the individual will not be permitted to volunteer at any Department of Education school campus.
