Plan on chaperoning this year? You will need to become CPS Volunteer Approved…info below!

🍎School will be starting soon! It’s time to renew or obtain your CPS volunteer screening for the 2024-25 school year!


The sooner you start the sooner you’ll be available to chaperone field trips and help out at all of our events like Walkathon and the Book Fair!


More info below!


Parents and guardians who wish to volunteer at Beaubien must be approved in advance by Chicago Public Schools (CPS) central office. Screening approval is needed for volunteering at in-school activities, PTO volunteer events and off-site field trips, just to name a few examples.


➡️Getting approved is easy, it just takes a couple of minutes:


1. Go to: https://chicagopublicschools.civicore.com/index.php?action=userLogin

2. Click: "Complete a Volunteer Application."

3. Choose LEVEL 2 volunteer when prompted (unless you are applying for a Level 1 position, which is a bit more involved)

4. Bring your Driver's License/ID to Ms. Santana in the Main Office, and tell her you would like be a Beaubien volunteer. Her email address is: esantana2@cps.edu


What if I was approved in past years? Am I still approved approved now?


It is important to login to your account at

https://chicagopublicschools.civicore.com/index.php?action=userLogin


1. Choose: "Complete a volunteer application"

2. Choose your language

3. Select: "Current Volunteer."

Follow directions from there.


Once that is complete, you must email Ms. Santana at the Beaubien Main Office for school approval again. Her email address is: esantana2@cps.edu



What is the difference between a Level 1 and Level 2 volunteer?


Note: Most Beaubien field trips require Level 1 volunteer status, most PTO events only require Level 2 status.

Please review the CPS policy at the following link: https://chicagopublicschools.civicore.com/?downloadFile=1&table=documents&field=document&check=b0072c3511c58cb48ba1c6fa35b716cd&key=10


➡️ Note: The approval process might take several weeks. Volunteers must be approved annually for each school they wish to volunteer at. Volunteer approvals from CPS are only valid for the current school year beginning each July 1 and expiring June 30th annually.


Questions? Please email our volunteer coordinator at beaubien.volunteer@gmail.com
