Volunteering

Complete a Flagler Schools Volunteer Application.

The application can be emailed as an attachment to martins@flaglerschools.com. Paper copies of the application are also available at each school’s main office and can be interoffice mailed to Shelley Martin, Human Resources.

Overnight School Volunteer Applications will require a 3D background clearance. The required fee for a 3D background check is $23.95. Cash in the exact amount or checks payable to Flagler Schools are accepted as payment with your application.

By completing an application, you are agreeing to allow Flagler Schools to share your demographic and volunteer interest information with our partnering agency, Flagler Volunteer Services. This allows the district and Flagler Volunteer Services to track your hours and contact you regarding volunteering opportunities.

By completing a School Volunteer Application, you are consenting to a criminal background check and a sex offender check. You are also agreeing to abide by the policies and procedures of Flagler Schools and its facilities while volunteering.

Personal information is kept confidential. Volunteers are also expected to keep any and all information seen or heard while volunteering confidential. Flagler Schools reserves the right to restrict and/or deny volunteer privileges when deemed necessary.

Types of Clearance

For volunteers working with or around children, in the presence of or in the line of sight of school district employees, a national sexual predator search will be conducted. These volunteers will receive a badge with a lavender strip to indicate clearance level, which is valid for two years.

To mentor or tutor students one-on-one or participate in an overnight field trip as a chaperone, the applicant may undergo a criminal history background check, which automatically includes a national sexual predator check. This level of background check must be pre-approved by the Human Resources Department.

Flagler Schools Volunteer Clearance Procedures

School volunteer badges are issued by appointment only.

Once your School Volunteer Application has cleared, you will be contacted to schedule an appointment to get a badge. Badges are issued in the Human Resources Department offices Monday–Friday, 8:00 am–1:00 pm and 2:00 pm–3:30 pm.

After scheduling an appointment, you will receive a confirmation of your appointment date and time via email with detailed instructions about obtaining your badge.

Your badge must be visible at all times while at school facilities.
