   Dear Parents/Guardians:

           Please review the SAFE ENVIRONMENT clearances and training needed
according to Archdiocese of Philadelphia Policy. Go to the OLA website, Parent
Resources, Safe Environment for all links and documents. There are a total of
FIVE documents that you MUST HAVE – Three Clearances and two training
certificates.

There are THREE  Clearances needed Every three (3) years. (These are FREE FOR
VOLUNTEERS):

There are TWO Safe Environment Training Certificates (One time only)

THE CERTIFICATE.

Mandated Reporting so EVERYONE must complete this training)

Once all Training and Clearances are complete:
Keep your originals and
Copy all letters, documents and certificates and 
Send all copies together to school. 
Include contact information in case we have questions.

It is your responsibility to make sure all clearances and training are up to
