Volunteer Background Checks

In order to ensure the protection of children in the care of Bloomfield Hills Schools, school policy requires, prior to any and all persons providing a volunteer service at the school or for any function conducted by the school; all potential volunteers complete a State of Michigan background check.  The background check is a name check only, through the State of Michigan ICHAT system and is based on individual identifiers.  Any applicant declining to complete a "Volunteer Background Check" acknowledgment form will not be considered.

Bloomfield Hills Schools reserves the right to "approve" or "deny" any volunteer service upon review of the background check returned through ICHAT.  The determination will be based upon the individual's fitness to have responsibility for the safety and wellbeing of children.  Providing false information, or information contradicting the background check information, is grounds for immediate volunteer denial.

This form only needs to be completed once per school year.
