4 thoughts on “IPS makes volunteers pay for own background checks, frustrating some parents

  1. There is always a victim, while there are plenty of sources for internet access and financial assistance. It shouldn’t also fall on tax payers to pay for background checks. Always something to play victim to.

  2. I have always had to pay for my own background checks when I volunteer at any NFP organization or kids sports leagues….

    These parents do not complain about their background check when they volunteer at the baseball diamond, why are they complaining about doing it to go inside a school with hundreds of children?

  3. This is going to sound cold, and our children and IPS could sure use the help. But… if you are at a point where you can’t cough up a one-time, $20 app. fee to volunteer for the school year, maybe that volunteer time would be better spent earning some ancillary income.

  4. Fast food, delivery services, cable/streaming services, cell phone (texting costs) plans, smoking, and alcohol are all potential areas where there might be an opportunity to shave $20 per year.
