Information on Volunteering at Monocacy
MCPS has started a new process for volunteering at Montgomery County Public Schools. Any individual who is a volunteer or chaperoning a field trip must always have an MCPS employee present. If not, they must complete a Background Clearance along with the CPS forms and the Recognizing Child Abuse Module (on the ParentVue). Fingerprinting is by appointment only.
Volunteer/Chaperone Background Screening Packet (There is more information in this link regarding the process).
CPS Form: Child Protective Service Form (You have to download this form to fill it out online).
