Since the Spring Fair is a family event with parents in attendance, volunteer clearances ARE NOT required on SATURDAY.

YOU MUST HAVE CLEARANCES TO VOLUNTEER
In order to volunteer in the classroom, you must have current volunteer clearances through CBSD. Questions? Contact Erin McCreary.

The process is EASY and all done online using the Volunteer Tracker App. Every CB volunteer will need to register, and upload their clearances.

Pennsylvania law requires all persons having direct contact with school children obtain background checks and clearances. Click here for the required clearances, along with links to the state’s websites.
