It is now Gilford School District policy that volunteers need a background check/fingerprinting before working with our students. This includes, but not limited to: classroom volunteers, chaperones on field trips, assisting at school activities such as dances, plays, and concerts, and volunteer coaching. All volunteers must also attend orientation before they are considered an approved volunteer.  Approved volunteers will receive an id badge that will expire after one year. A renewal may be acquired from the SAU after submitting a signed affidavit. Fingerprints are good for three years. Monthly fingerprint clinics/background checks are held at the SAU office located at: 

2 Belknap Mountain Road. 

Please call the office at 527-9215 to schedule an appointment. A photo ID is required for identification. Please plan accordingly, as the background check process will take 4-8 weeks.
