As a result of KRS 161.148/KRS161.044: All parent volunteers that provide direct supervision of students must participate in a volunteer training (as designated by each district) and submit for a criminal record check. In Pendleton County the following is required:

application form, Page 2 is the Participation Statement which includes the understanding about confidentiality
and Page 3 is the Criminal Record Check form
c. All 3 must be completed and be legible for processing. They can be mailed to the address noted on the forms,
returned to the schools in a sealed envelope or dropped off at Room 301 Falmouth School Center.
d. Once received the expected turn- around time is one week or less. Once approved the volunteer is added to
the district list which is distributed to school secretaries. A letter from the Superintendent is forthcoming that
