If you are an adult interested in volunteering at Saint James School in any capacity including but not limited to playground duty, class trip chaperone, classroom parent, CYM basketball or sports team coach, please review this information. For the protection of all children, the Diocese of Metuchen has the following mandatory requirements for all volunteers:
All volunteers must submit the following documents:
Fingerprinting must be completed by the IdentoGo system. The cost is $24.05. The IdentoGo fingerprinting instructions are attached HERE. Then you may visit the IdentoGo website or call 1-877-503-5981. Follow the instructions on the first form; screen-by-screen instructions are also included. Enter the following Service Code: “2F1J3y”. This code is for volunteers only. When prompted, enter our school’s Contributor Case Number: MET 108. This number is critical to completing the fingerprint process. You will pay online; please keep your confirmation receipt. At your fingerprint appointment, you will receive a receipt from IdentoGo. You will also receive an email after the visit with a confirmation which includes a “PCN” tracking number. (Be sure to check your spam email folder if you don’t see this receipt in your inbox.) You must provide the St. James School Background Coordinator with copies of both the IdentoGo payment receipt and the email fingerprint confirmation letter which contains the PCN number. (The background coordinator will make copies if you are not able.) Once fingerprinted, the criminal history approval letter from the State Police will be forwarded to the Diocese of Metuchen. It is then reviewed, tracked, and sent to the St. James School Background Coordinator to be kept on file with the remaining clearance documents.
