Volunteer Disclaimer

Serving as a Dividend School Volunteer is a volunteer activity. To properly screen Dividends for a discretionary activity, an applicant must provide his/her social security number. Applicants who declined to furnish a social security number may not serve as a school volunteer.

To ensure the protection and safety of the students, all volunteers are subject to a random background screening. If selected, you will be asked to be fingerprinted at the district's expense. If a volunteer refuses to comply, their volunteer application will be de-activated.

Furthermore, in accordance with Seminole County Public Schools Board Policy 6.69, "non-student Social security numbers may be released to a commercial entity as permitted by law. The commercial entity must state the reason for requesting the social security numbers. A commercial entity is any corporation, partnership, limited partnership, proprietorship, sole proprietorship, firm, enterprise, franchise, or association that performs a commercial activity in this state. Release of social security numbers shall process as required by §119.071(5), Fla. Stat." This means that Seminole County Public Schools will not release Social Security numbers to any commercial entity unless the commercial entity has been approved and in compliance with the Florida Statutes.

All Dividend volunteers are required to re-activate their applications each year. If you cannot register online, paper applications are available at any district school or at the Educational Support Center. You can also email Misa_ [email protected] and we can send you an electronic copy of the application.

If you are applying and need to register with a paper application, you will also need to furnish written documentation: written explanation (include year of incident), arrest record, and final disposition. This paperwork will be submitted to the District Professional Standards Committee. We will inform you of their decision. Please contact the Dividends Office at 407.320.0178 for further questions.
