The school district encourages volunteering by our parents and guardians, and we appreciate our community’s support. Pennsylvania Act 15 requires that adults (those 18 years of age or older) having direct volunteer contact with children will need background check clearances.
New volunteers are required to have clearances
All clearances must have been obtained less than 60 months (5 years) ago.
- LASD Volunteer Application
- PA Child Abuse History Clearance
- PA State Police Criminal Record Check
- FBI Criminal Background Check or Self-Disclosure Form (may be used in lieu of the FBI check if you have lived in PA continuously for the past 10 years)
- Mandated Reporter Training
- Coaches will need to complete additional steps with the Athletic Department and/or Head Coach.
We ask that all volunteers review the Volunteer Handbook prior to volunteering in the district. Specifically, pages 7-11 are directions for obtaining new clearances.
Detailed information for each clearance can be found here.
If you have any questions, please contact Stephanie Ironside at the Superintendent's Office.
