VOLUNTEERS

New Required State Policy

 

Effective July 1, 2026, California Senate Bill 848 expands the definition of “mandated reporters” to include (1) all school employees; (2) volunteers (as defined in Penal Code section 11165.7); (3) contractors; and (4) governing board members.

 

If you plan to volunteer this upcoming 2026-27 school year, including driving on field trips, you must complete the child-mandated reporter training before volunteering. Volunteering includes helping in the classroom and/or driving on field trips. We have partnered with Public School Works to facilitate the training. Click on the provided link below to register and access the portal to complete the course. When completed, print out the certificate and drop it off in the office.

 

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.

 

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact the office at (707) 795-4380.
