NWEE welcomes families to volunteer in our building as part of our family engagement initiatives! Please read the following policy on background checks that need to be completed before your volunteer service in our building. Please communicate with your classroom teachers on any upcoming opportunities. Regarding school-wide events, communication will be disseminated from the office to all families inviting your participation. Additionally, the PTO has rescheduled their monthly meetings to encourage families to join. Please see the schedule below and we look forward to seeing you then!
"In order to ensure the protection of children in the care of Northwest Community Schools, school policy requires, prior to any and all persons providing a volunteer service at the school or for any function conducted by the school; all potential volunteers complete a State of Michigan background check. The background check is a name check only through the State of Michigan ICHAT system, and is based on individual identifiers.
Any applicant declining to complete a "Volunteer/Chaperone Background Check Acknowledgment Form" will not be considered. Forms are valid for the current school year only and should be submitted at least two weeks before the event. "
