We are grateful for the wonderful help our parents provide!Please download and review our Volunteer Clearance Requirements for information about the necessary applications and forms.
To provide a high level of safety to our students and staff, we require clearances for certain types of volunteers. Avon Grove Charter School (AGCS) welcomes any member of the student’s family, caring adults in the student’s life, as well as members of our local community to volunteer. All volunteers responsible for the care, supervision, guidance or control of children and routine interaction with children are required to have their background clearances on file with AGCS.
