Comply Volunteer Instructions




Dear Volunteers,
Our district is now utilizing COMPLY to manage volunteer requirements. This system provides several benefits:
- Safe & Secure Database – Your information is stored securely, protecting your clearances and personal data.
- Automated Reminders – Email notifications alert you when items are nearing expiration, helping you stay on track.
- User-Friendly – Log in anytime to see what’s required and complete items at your own pace.
- Transparent – Both volunteers and the district can clearly see what has been completed.
How It Works
All volunteers must self-register in COMPLY using a district-provided token and their personal email address. Even if your information is already on file, we are starting fresh in COMPLY, so all volunteers must upload their information again. (Note: You do NOT need to update clearances if they are still valid.)
Important Notes:
- You will not be approved until all required items are completed and submitted.
- You may complete steps at your own pace, but incomplete packets will not be considered.
- Approval is required before your first day as a volunteer. You must receive an approval email from COMPLY before beginning.

Volunteer Clearance Policy & Protocols

The District encourages and appreciates those who volunteer in our schools. Parental and community involvement helps to support student learning. If you plan to volunteer at a Riverview School District school this year, please be aware that there are new and revised State regulations regarding clearances for volunteers.

 

The PA House passed Act 153 of 2014 into law on October 22, 2014. Throughout the past year, additional revisions to these requirements and procedures have been made. This new PA law takes effect for the 2015-2016 school year and applies to employees and unpaid volunteers who have direct contact with children, are responsible for the welfare of a child, and have routine interaction with children. This law provides a specific directive on the type of background checks now required.


Our goal is to keep our students safe and also make this process as realistically stress-free as possible. All volunteers are encouraged to review Riverview School District Policy 916, which you will find located under the Volunteer Information section of this site. All Independent Volunteers must submit a completed Clearance Checklist and Disclosure Form, also located under the Volunteer Information section. Be sure to follow the specific residency information as it pertains to the clearances which will be required.

 

Gov. Tom Wolf waived the fees for the Criminal Record Check and Child Abuse Clearance beginning July 25, 2015. Volunteers will be responsible for the cost of an FBI clearance should one be necessary. Clearances are required to be submitted and on file prior to working in schools. 

 

If you have any questions, please contact Raney Zatawski via email: [email protected] 

All Clearances are to be turned in at the RSD Business Office, 701 Tenth Street.
