Become a Sage Volunteer!

Are you interested in helping out in the school, chaperoning, on field trips or in the classrooms? We welcome all volunteers to apply!. 

To protect the safety and welfare of children, a full criminal background record check is completed for all employees and volunteers.
 
To ensure the safety of our students and team members, we also conduct background checks every year on all school volunteers who work directly with students.
 
Please note this application is for parents/guardians, families and community members. 
(RSD staff members are not required to complete the application as background records are screened prior to employment.)
 
We employ a third-party screening company called bchex.com. They oversee all applications and communication with volunteers regarding the clearance process. RSD will not email applicants directly regarding as all communication will be coming to the applicant from bchex.
 
To locate the volunteer application:
 
1.) Please visit redmondschools.org
2.) To change the language on the page, hover over the ‘English’ dropdown menu and select the preferred language.
3.) Hover over the ‘About’ dropdown menu then,
4.) Click on ‘Volunteer’
 
This will bring you to the volunteer application!
 
Please be prepared, all applicants will be asked to scan a QR Code on the website. Additionally, volunteer applicants will be asked to scan their identification. Both of these steps can be completed using a cell phone camera. Simply go into your camera application on your smartphone and face the camera at the code shape until you see the URL/link appear on the camera screen. At that time, you can click the URL/link to proceed.

If applicants need additional information or assistance, please call bchex.com at 704-439-3900 first. If additional help is needed after that call has been made, please contact Mel.McCabe@redmondschools.org
