New Application for School Volunteers/Nueva Solicitud para Voluntarios Escolares
For the safety of children, volunteers are required to have an approved background check when volunteering in schools.
To help streamline compliance with state and school board policies, which require that all volunteers have background checks and knowledge of other board policies -- as well as state-mandated proof of vaccination (or a qualified exemption) -- we are introducing a new all-in-one volunteer application and approval process through ou Raptor Visitor Management System.
Submitting an online application initiates the background check process. Once submitted, applicants will receive an email upon approval of your background check and you will be given access through the onsite Raptor System at all schools. Please allow up to three weeks to process your approval.
Volunteers need to submit only one application for volunteering in all LOSD schools. Applications need to be submitted annually to capture changes in background checks, policies, and/or vaccination requirements.
Volunteer Application for LOSD
Thank you for applying promptly, and for your service to our students and schools. We are grateful for our volunteers.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Para ayudar a agilizar el cumplimiento de las políticas estatales y de la junta escolar, que requieren que todos los voluntarios tengan verificación de antecedentes y conocimiento de otras políticas de la junta, así como prueba de vacunación exigida por el estado (o una exención calificada), estamos introduciendo un nuevo Proceso de solicitud y aprobación de voluntarios en uno a través de nuestro sistema de gestión de visitantes Raptor.
Enviar una solicitud en línea inicia el proceso de verificación de antecedentes. Una vez enviados, los solicitantes recibirán un correo electrónico sobre la aprobación de su verificación de antecedentes y se les dará acceso a través del Sistema Raptor en el sitio en todas las escuelas. Espere hasta tres semanas para procesar su aprobación.
Los voluntarios deben presentar solo una solicitud para ser voluntario en todas las escuelas LOSD. Las solicitudes deben enviarse anualmente para capturar los cambios en las verificaciones de antecedentes, las políticas y/o los requisitos de vacunación.
Volunteer Application for LOSD
Gracias por presentar su solicitud con prontitud y por su servicio a nuestros estudiantes y escuelas. Estamos agradecidos por nuestros voluntarios.
Fall i-Ready
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Este otoño, todos los estudiantes en los grados 1-5 completarán dos evaluaciones i-Ready en línea en clase. Uno es para matemáticas y el otro es para lectura. i-Ready es una evaluación de diagnóstico que nos ayudará a determinar las fortalezas y áreas de crecimiento de su hijo, personalizar su aprendizaje y monitorear su progreso a lo largo del año escolar. i-Ready nos permite conocer a su hijo donde está y nos brinda datos para informar y adaptar la instrucción para acelerar el crecimiento. Esta es la primera de tres evaluaciones i-Ready que damos cada año. En Lake Oswego, la ventana Fall i-Ready está abierta hasta el 16 de septiembre.
