All volunteers are checked against the sex offender database. For indirectly supervised, unsupervised, or frequent volunteers, BCPS requires a criminal background check. The BCPS Engagement department will cover the cost of the fingerprint background check ($61.50) if that level of screening is needed for the volunteer service. The volunteer would need to register through the Partners In Education Portal (linked above) to authorize screening and payment coverage. BCPS does not reimburse other costs, such as transportation or parking.

MWS Administration prefers that interested Volunteers complete the background check.
