Safe Training

The well-being and safety of all students is a top priority at St. Mary’s. We actively implements the Diocesan Safe Environment policies. The Diocese of Boise requires that anyone working with youth under the age of 18 take a Safe Environment Workshop. The Diocese of Boise now requires that this training be renewed each year.

Volunteers interacting with students must complete the following: 

    1. Create a Virtus account and register for an upcoming training session.
    2. Attend a face-to-face Safe Environment Training session.  
    3. Have a background check to be completed by the Diocese and renewed every 5 years.
    4. Submit a driver’s license and insurance information if you are planning to drive on field trips.
    5. Annually renew your Safe Environment Training through the Diocesan online platform, Virtus. Renewal sessions can be performed online. 

We hope that all St. Mary’s parents will be interacting with students in some capacity so we recommend that all parents complete or update their training prior to the beginning of each school year.
