Court-Ordered Volunteers

Court-ordered volunteers may approach school sites asking to work or tutor students to fulfill community service sentences. In many criminal cases, as part of the person’s sentence, they are required by the court to provide volunteer services to the community.

Schools are not required to accept court-ordered volunteers. Schools may perform background checks on court-ordered volunteers. See pages 10 and 11 of the Volunteer Coordinator’s Handbook for the procedure for background checks on volunteers.
