Interested in Volunteering?
We are always grateful for the support of our families, and we love having parents and family members involved in events and activities at St. Joseph Center for Special Learning!
If you are interested in volunteering at the school for any upcoming events, please reach out to Jenn in the front office to find out which background clearances need to be completed. The list of background checks / courses need to be completed are listed below, and there are some additional forms that will need to be filled out that SJC will provide. The clearance process can take a few weeks, so we encourage you to get started now, even if you are not sure when you may have an opportunity to volunteer.
Once your clearances are on file, you will be all set for five years (from the date they were completed), so you won’t have to worry about completing the process each time you would like to help.
Thank you for your willingness to share your time and talents with our students and adults. We truly appreciate having our families be a part of the SJC community!
If you have any questions or would like to get started, please contact Jenn in the front office or email her your already-completed clearances:
