Volunteer Police Record Checks

The Leeds County, Rideau Lakes and 1000 Island OPP Detachments will be requiring individual applicants to personally attend the police service that covers the jurisdiction in which you reside in order to process police record checks. They can no longer be done at the school. Frequent changes to OPP policy makes it more difficult to keep various organizations informed of these changes and paperwork compliant with auditing standards.

Volunteers will now be required to bring with them to the police station a letter on school letterhead indicating that we require a police record check and the role/duties the individual will be performing as a volunteer. Along with the letter two pieces of valid government-issued identification, one of which must contain a photo.  Also required is a completed LE 225 Form with our school stamp on the form. If you require forms, you must pick them up in person at the school.

It is now more important than ever to complete a Declaration Form C within the required timeline (we must be in possession of a police check within a year) in order to avoid filling out a new police check.

As always we appreciate our very valuable volunteers and would not be able to deliver some of the learning experiences that our students are grateful for without your help.
