Who Needs a Pupil-Activity Permit (PAP)

Any coach/volunteer of a sport or coach/advisor/volunteer of an activity outside the school day that requires routine or regular physical activity or activities with health and safety considerations must have a valid PAP prior to working with students/student athletes.

Any advisor/volunteer who is not a licensed teacher or principal and supervising an activity outside the school day that does not require routine or regular physical activity or activities with health and safety considerations must also have the PAP prior to working with students.

Any advisor/volunteer who is a licensed teacher or principal and supervises an activity outside the school day that does not require routine or regular physical activity or activities with health and safety considerations is not required to have a PAP.

If you are unsure of whether an activity qualifies as requiring "routine or regular physical activity or activities with health and safety considerations," please touch base with Becca Yanni prior to starting the activity. More Information can also be found on the Ohio State Board of Education website.
