Volunteering
Thank you for your interest in volunteering. BRSSD has a volunteer clearance which requires volunteers who may be alone with students to have fingerprint clearance with the Department of Justice. The benefit of this new system is that your fingerprint clearance will be valid for your entire time in Belmont-Redwood Shores-you only have to be fingerprinted once.
This form must be completed yearly by each individual who wishes to volunteer within the Belmont-Redwood Shores School District.
Though you must complete the online form yearly, the fingerprint clearance process only needs to be completed once.
