SUMMARY:
Criminal records checks of school board employees. Expands the scope of the current criminal records checks and arrest reports for school board employees to include misdemeanors for persons accepting or offered employment and to encompass current employees' convictions of any felony or misdemeanor. A report of an arrest for a current employee for one of the listed crimes will trigger the criminal records check. Under the present law, these records are only checked for convictions of specific crimes such as murder, sexual assault, drug possession and distribution, and arson. The citations for these crimes are specifically set out in this bill and described in more detail. Further, this information is also to be used for suspension and dismissal purposes.
