To facilitate access to fingerprinting and encourage parent engagement and volunteerism, LGUSD will cover the cost of individuals who are fingerprinted at an LGUSD-sponsored fingerprinting opportunity. Those are shared with families via ParentSquare.

Please note that volunteers will only need to submit fingerprints once during their time in LGUSD. If you participated in a previous LGUSD fingerprinting session, you do not need to submit again.
