A: STEP 1- Attend a volunteer orientation with Dr. Hodge.STEP 2- Complete the Volunteer Application and turn it into Mrs. Hamme in the school office.STEP 3- Provide payment to the school district for the filing fee. [Note: currently waived as of 11/29]STEP 4- Complete the Live scan process (now available through CCUSD:STEP 5- Wait for your clearance approval (one or two weeks at most). Contact Mrs. Hamme in the front office to verify you have been cleared. - Q: Do I need to be cleared in order to volunteer?

These include activities after school or on weekends (Student Store and many of our family events), independent efforts (collecting or delivering items, organizing materials, coordinating activities). - Q: How do I find out about volunteer opportunities?
