All Students K-12

Parents/Guardians/Caregivers and community members are always encouraged to apply as an employee or volunteer at their student’s school and/or with Northfield Public Schools. Volunteers provide a valuable service to students and staff. Minnesota Statute requires a school hiring authority to request a criminal history background check on all individuals who are offered employment in a school and on all individuals, except enrolled student volunteers, who are offered the opportunity to provide athletic coaching services or other extracurricular services to a school, regardless of whether any compensation is paid.

Parents/Guardians/Caregivers and community members who volunteer on a regular basis must complete a background check each school year before serving students affiliated with Northfield Public Schools.

Visit the volunteering webpage on the district’s website for more information.
