Wind & Oar Boat School - Background Screening Portal

Our Mission


To teach communities of youth and adults the art and science of wooden boat building, the power of hands on learning, and a commitment to environmental stewardship.

What We Do


The Wind & Oar Boat School offers a comprehensive program engaging communities in hands-on-learning, where basic woodworking and maritime skills converge with environmental stewardship and watershed ecology. With a focus on youth programs, the school provides classes on traditional methods of boatbuilding and related arts and science. Students gain competence in job related skills and experience the team building, collaboration, and self-confidence that arise from working towards a common goal. Cuts to public education have eroded access to hands-on-learning opportunities that connect students to the practical application of their studies. The school’s integrated curriculum linking math, science, and design to the building of boats, provides a much-needed educational opportunity. The program costs are funded through adult and community course fees, grants, and partnerships with private and public entities.


Background Screening Requirement


In order to be a volunteer or employee with the Wind & Oar Boat School, an organization affiliated with the National Council of Nonprofits or one of their State Associations, each candidate is required to have a criminal background check completed prior to begining their service.
The Wind & Oar Boat School, as a nonprofit organization, typically incurs the cost of all background checks conducted on our volunteers.
