Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools Volunteer Statement
Thank
you for volunteering to support learning and student achievement in
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools. Below is an explanation of how we screen
our volunteers and the procedures you will need to follow for
volunteering.
Volunteer
Screening Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools screens all volunteers to
ensure the safety of our students. The screening includes completion of
an online volunteer registration form and a criminal background check.
Volunteer screening can also include interviews by appropriate CMS staff
and reference checks.
We
have three kinds of volunteer approvals: Supervised, unsupervised
without driving and unsupervised with driving. Supervised volunteers
will work under the direction and in the presence of CMS staff.
Unsupervised volunteers may work with children without CMS staff
present. Volunteers approved as "Unsupervised with driving" are allowed
to drive children as part of their volunteer activity. Please note that
volunteers who drive children must provide proof of insurance and a copy
of their driver license to CMS Law Enforcement.
Volunteer Personal Information
When
you register, you will establish a personal user name and password for
your profile information. You will use this regularly to update your
information and to log in your volunteer hours. Your profile information
is available to the volunteer coordinator at the school(s) you select
as your preferred school(s), CMS Law Enforcement and the district’s
volunteer supervisor. We will not give your information to anyone else.
After researching the safest way to store volunteer data, we have opted
for a secure Web server not housed at CMS and used by many local banks.
CMS also follows North Carolina laws limiting access to volunteer
information. Again, thank you for volunteering in our schools.
