There are endless opportunities to volunteer at Key School — no matter how much or how little you want to be involved. If you are interested in helping out at Key, please visit our list of committees, or simply email one of our PTO Co-Presidents, Jessica Kramer (jessicapalmerkramer@gmail.com) or Adam Kirschenbaum (aikbaum@hotmail.com).
Complete the Volunteer Clearance Process
Please note, if you volunteer for a field trip off campus, you must complete the DCPS clearance process—even if you are a parent. To complete the DCPS Clearance process, complete the following steps:
-
- Complete the online Clearance Application, here: DCPS Clearance Application.
- Complete a TB test or obtain documentation showing cleared TB test results from the last 12 months.
- Report to DCPS Central Office (1200 First Street NE, 10th Floor) during operating hours to complete the fingerprinting process: Monday through Thursday from 8:00am to 5:00pm and Fridays from 8:00am to 3:00pm. TB test results must be provided upon reporting to Central Office for fingerprints. Individuals who fail to produce TB test results from the last 12 months will be denied fingerprinting services.
- Wait 3-10 business days for a clearance letter, indicating cleared fingerprinting results.
