The Gilford School District welcomes volunteers in our schools.
A fingerprint background check is required in all Gilford schools for individuals, volunteers and chaperones engaged in the following activities:
Once a thorough background investigation and criminal records check is complete with no disqualifying records and the volunteer has completed orientation, the volunteer will be issued an identification badge to be worn every time the volunteer works in the school.
Fingerprint clinics are scheduled at the SAU office located at 2 Belknap Mountain Road. A photo ID is required for identification.
The process takes approximately 30 minutes. A photo will be taken for the ID badge.

Anyone who volunteers in the Gilford School District must complete an annual Volunteer Affidavit and Confidentiality Agreement.
Volunteers who have already been issued an ID badge and would like a new badge for the 2023-2024 school year need to complete the Volunteer Affidavit and Confidentiality Agreement and submit to the SAU office. Every four years volunteers
will need to go through the background investigation and criminal records check
at the SAU office.
