Dear Prospective Volunteer,
To ensure the safety of all the students in our schools, the Ripon Area School District requires all persons interested in volunteering to complete a background check. The background check requires the applicant’s full
name, date of birth, social security number, and addresses for the last ten years.
The District uses all information collected, including the initial information, namely the applicant’s full name, date of birth, social security number, and addresses for the last ten years, solely to verify the information disclosed on this form and to facilitate any search for additional information related to an applicant’s pending charges or prior convictions. The District, pursuant to the federal Privacy Act, is required to inform the applicant that providing his/her social security number on this form is voluntary. Failure to provide the requested information will preclude a person from volunteering in the schools.
All information received or gathered through this process is governed by the laws of the State of Wisconsin and the District’s confidentiality policies in order to protect the volunteer and the students served in the District. The
completed background check report is reviewed by a minimal number of persons. Individuals with reports containing information to be concerning may be provided an opportunity to meet with District office administrators to explain the situation.
If you have questions please email Jonah Adams, Business Manager, or call him at (920) 748-4600.
