School Volunteers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Volunteers can improve the school environment, resulting in better academic and social development for students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Information on background checks for volunteers<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The safety and security of the school community is a top priority of MLWGS. For your protection and that of the students and staff, the school conducts a check on all school personnel and volunteers with the National Sex Offender Public Website. This includes the Virginia State Police Registry of Sexual Offenders and Crimes against Minors. Anyone convicted of a misdemeanor or felony offense, especially an offense against a minor, may be disqualified from volunteering depending upon the nature of the offense and the nature of the school volunteer activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To volunteer for MLWGS, please complete the registration form and agreement, and the background check authorization below, and return all to room 100 (Reception) or email them to vwilliams@gsgis.k12.va.u<\/a>s.\u00a0TB screening can be completed with the school’s registered nurse M-Fri, 8:30 am – 3:30 pm. Please review the Volunteer Handbook below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When all forms are completed and returned to Ms. Williams, a short orientation with the school’s Activities Director can be scheduled, who will issue each volunteer a badge to complete the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
