Any volunteers who work in the school building or who chaperone field trips must complete an application and background check with Seattle Public Schools  and receive approval.  The list of approved volunteers for Montlake is updated and referenced regularly.  Volunteers who have not been approved will not be allowed in the building or on field trips.

Volunteer approval is good for two years.  If you have been approved in the past, please check each year to ensure that your approval is still current.  If you are new to the school, you must apply and be approved to volunteer at Montlake.  To check your volunteer status or to complete a new application, click the button below.
