VOLUNTEER at WEST HOLLYWOOD ELEMENTARY


Volunteer Application Process:

We have many dedicated and wonderful people who come and volunteer their time in both the classroom and at the school. If you are interested in becoming a volunteer at West Hollywood Elementary, please be sure to turn in the following to the front office:

1) Volunteer Online Application and Volunteer Commitment Form (a new form must be signed & turned in each year)
2) Copy of TB test clearance (test results will be valid for 4 years)

Volunteer Online Application:
All volunteers must fill out the online volunteer application for EACH SCHOOL YEAR. You can access the online registration application at https://volunteerapp.lausd.net Once you complete the online application you will need to submit it electronically. You will also need to PRINT both the application and Volunteer Commitment Form - sign and deliver the hard copies to the front office. To renew for the next year, you will need to go online and confirm your address and other information to "re-apply", than print this and a new commitment form and bring it into the office

TB Testing Information for Volunteers:
A Tuberculosis (Mantoux) Skin Test must be turned in within past 60 days prior to beginning a volunteer assignment. Volunteers who are unable to take the TB skin test or receive a chest x-ray due to pregnancy or other medical circumstances must provide a signed statement (dated within 60 days prior to beginning a volunteer assignment) from a licensed doctor stating that the volunteer is not carrying the TB virus and is not at risk of contaminating the greater population.

 

If the TB skin test is positive, a chest x-ray is required. The results of the test must be attached to the application when submitted to the office. X-rays must be taken within one year of beginning volunteer assignment. Also note that it is not necessary to submit a new TB Test every year if you are a continuing volunteer - TB skin tests and negative x-ray test are valid for four years.
