2430.01 - SPECIAL PROGRAMS BY COMMUNITY VOLUNTEERS

Recruitment and selection of volunteers is done at the local building level. Interested individuals should contact the building principal or his/her designee. The interests and abilities of the volunteers will be considered when making assignments. It is the responsibility of the building principal to accept and assign volunteers to the school program. All volunteers are subject to the authority of the principal and direction by the classroom teacher or other school employee.

In order to ensure that activities recommended by or involving community volunteers in an instructional role are in keeping with District philosophy and will help students better accomplish the learning goals of the District's program, the Board establishes the following guidelines for the approval of any activity involving community volunteers:

	A.	Any suggested activity must be presented to the Superintendent, in writing, at least thirty (30) days prior to the planned starting date.
	B.	Each request must include:

		1.	the purpose of the activity;
		2.	the students for whom the activity is planned;
		3.	the intended learning outcomes;
		4.	the names and qualifications of those community volunteers who will be participating in any aspect of the activity;
		5.	the number of hours and total duration of the activity.

The Board delegates to the Superintendent the responsibility for approving each requested activity based on its educational merits and relationship to the total District program.

In addition to those established for all regular co-curricular and extra-curricular programs, the Superintendent will prepare any special administrative guidelines required for the proper conduct and evaluation of activities involving community volunteers.
