Volunteer Guest Background Screening Process

The Blue Springs School District has partnered with the local company DataSource to enhance and strengthen our current background screening process for Volunteer Guests. It is FREE, SECURE, and SIMPLE to register.

Please go to the link below. All Blue Springs School District schools will be listed. Click on the building in which you are planning to volunteer. (If you have students attending multiple buildings, you will only need to complete one application. After completing the application, please contact the Building School Resource Officer for the school you applied at and let them know you have students at additional locations).

Please note:  district employees/volunteer staff are required to receive a MACHS (Missouri Automated Criminal History System) background check prior to being employed. This is a comprehensive background check with continuous monitoring. Therefore, district employees looking to volunteer at their child’s school should not complete this screening as they have already been evaluated through the MACHS system.  After submission, please wait for an email from DataSource. The email will let you know whether you have been approved or denied.  Volunteer applications MUST be submitted at least five (5) days before the event for which you are volunteering.  Link:  https://bssd.quickapp.pro

DYE Lunch Visitor Sign-Up

• Please allow time to check in at the front office. A photo ID will be requested. Once properly checked in, visitors must wear a visitor sticker while in the building. The process will be more efficient if all your information is updated in the Parent Portal.
• All lunch visitors must complete the Volunteer Guest Background Screening Process.  (See Information in the section above.)
• A designated eating area will be identified at each school. Lunch will be with you and your student only.  We request that other students not sit or share food with you and your student.  Once the student’s lunch period is over, all visitors must leave the building and are not allowed to walk their student to the classroom or attend recess.
• Please exit through the front office so that you may check out with the office personnel.

Please do not hesitate to reach out to the office with any questions you may have.
