In order to volunteer in Jamestown Schools, the following is required:

• Photocopy of Photo ID that includes date of birth
  
  

Maggi will have you complete a Notarized Criminal Record Check Waiver (Maggi is a Notary Public) and a Confidentiality Agreement. Maggi will share these items and your identification with theJamestown Police in order to process your background check in the manner they have requested.

 

For Residents of other towns:
Please stop by your local police department and tell them that you need a BCI Background Check to volunteer at a school. Procedures and forms may vary. Alternatively you can deal directly with the state, see the RI Attorney General's BCI Website. Once the Background Check is completed bring or send associated paperwork to Maggi Moretti, Jamestown School, 76 Melrose Ave, Jamestown RI 02835 (include confidentiality agreement)

 

Names of volunteers with approved background checks will be recorded and accessible to teachers and school administrators.
