How to Begin Complying with the Child Protection Policy

  1. Fill out the Volunteer Application form and bring it in to the school office for a signature from Ms. Kilty and to have copies made.
  2. Register for "Protecting God's Children" class at www.virtus.org or www.adw.org. Make sure you select a session date. Please record your User ID and Password.

  3. Contact the school office to make sure the receipt of your application has been recorded on your Virtus account. The fingerprinting office will not make an appointment for fingerprinting unless they can see that your Virtus account shows the receipt by your parish/school of your Volunteer Application.
  4. Call the Archdiocese Office of Employee & Volunteer Services to set up an appointment for fingerprinting.
  5. St. Andrew's will need a copy of the receipt you will receive after you have been fingerprinted.
  6. CHILD PROTECTION POLICY BOOKLET

    Read the Child Protection Policy Booklet (pick one up in the school office) and sign the last page in the back of the booklet. Bring the signed original of this page to the school office and receive a copy from the office.

REMEMBER when you go to the Protecting God's Children for Adults class:

Thank you for all that you do and for helping us keep our children safe.

** You may add 3 volunteer hours for fingerprinting and 3 volunteer hours for taking the "Protecting God's Children" class. **

PLEASE KEEP THIS LIST HANDY UNTIL YOU HAVE COMPLETED THE PROCESS.
