We wanted to give all of you a heads up about our final Field Trip for this year. Although it is a few months away we want to be sure to give you plenty of time to prepare. This is a FUN and EXCITING time for our kiddos. Our last Field Trip will be to the Jacksonville Zoo, and we will be going April 4th. We are so Happy to tell you that we DO NOT have a limit to the number of Chaperones we can have. That's right, your heard us, ALL of you can come if you want!! The more the merrier! We do have a few reminders (sorry to be a bummer): Our School Policy does not allow siblings to attend Field Trips.
Also, if you would like to be a chaperone you MUST fill out the the Volunteer Application on the DCPS Website. There is a 2-3 week turn around to be approved...so PLEASE do not wait until the day before, we will not be allowed to have you chaperone.
Things are changing for the safety of our students. If you would like to Volunteer in our classroom, you MUST fill out the Volunteer Application. If you would like to have Lunch with your child in the Cheetah Cafe...You MUST fill out the Volunteer Application. If you would like to Chaperone on a Field Trip....You guessed it....You MUST fill out the Volunteer Application. Our Principal informed us that ANY AND ALL CLASSROOM VISITORS/VOLUNTEERS MUST FILL OUT THE VOLUNTEER APPLICATION ON THE DCPS WEBSITE. We joke...but it is VERY IMPORTANT!
Let us know if you have any questions about filling out the form online.
Here is the link on the Duval Schools Website for the Volunteer Application
******We have received NEW INFORMATION! We found out from the District that they are NO LONGER mailing out Volunteer Cards, to let you know you are approved.

Will we get anything saying our volunteer application went through?
ReplyDeleteApprox. a month after you have submitted the Application you will receive a Volunteer Card from the county. The school will also receive a printout of those who have submitted and been approved. The time it takes to be approved varies based upon the volume of Applications.
ReplyDeleteHi - I received a copy of the Volunteer application report from InfoMart back in August, but I didn't receive a Volunteer Card. How do I verify that I am on the list for Chimney Lakes?
ReplyDeleteI received the same thing, a copy of the background check but not a card or letter.
