Volunteers
Parent/guardian involvement is not just a wonderful addition to a successful school, it is essential. At Fell Charter School, it is also a requirement of all parents/guardians. There are always opportunities for volunteers to help out, be it during lunch periods, Warrior Nights, or over the summer.
All Parents/Guardians are required to volunteer their time for two (2) hours a month. Volunteer programs benefit our school community, and enforce great parent/student and parent/school involvement.
Field Trips
Any Parent/Guardian who attends a field trip as a chaperone must have his/her two clearances and finger prints on file at the school, 24 hours prior to the field trip.
No one will be permitted to attend a field trip without proper clearances; attendance at the pre-field trip meeting is mandatory.
Background Clearance Checks
Per PA law (Act 151, 34), all volunteers must obtain a PA Child Abuse Background Check and a PA Criminal Background Check.
These clearances will be valid at the school for two years from the date of issue, and can be obtained using the links on this page.
