Community and Parent Volunteers

Volunteers

Volunteers play a pivotal role in shaping the educational experience of our students, whether it’s by assisting teachers in the classroom, coaching sports teams, or overseeing extracurricular clubs. Your passion and commitment contribute significantly to the rich and meaningful learning opportunities and inclusive environments in our District. Thank you for considering joining our community of volunteers. 

To complete the volunteer application process, please proceed with the following steps:

1. Watch the training video below:

2. All volunteers involved in coaching students in athletics must complete the Concussion Awareness Training Tool (CATT) from BCSS.  If this applies to your role, use the following link to complete the training.

3. Complete this online Volunteer Safety Check Application Form HERE.

4. For the convenience of volunteers and to meet the timely needs of the school, the District is offering TWO options to get your Police Information Check (PIC, formerly called a Criminal Record Check/CRC).

  • For volunteers who want a more timely response with a “volunteer letter” from the school, please go to the nearest RCMP Detachment. This can include RCMP Community Policing Offices. If you live in Langley, these checks can often be done on the same day, and sometimes even within 10-15 minutes. You can obtain the necessary "volunteer letter" by contacting FLE admin assistant Judy Boivin (jboivin@sd35.bc.ca). 
  • For volunteers who have more time and prefer to apply online, we have a link below you can use. Please be sure to show two pieces of government-issued ID to the school Administrator, and please understand that this could take 3-4 weeks before we get back a response.

Please ensure that the results are brought/sent to us FLE ASAP. A PIC/CRC “clearance” must be given to the District BEFORE you can begin to volunteer in the Langley School District.
