Introduced by: Jay Katzen | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles

SUMMARY:

Criminal history records checks for school board employees. Adds Rappahannock County to the list of school boards requiring, as a condition of employment, fingerprinting and information from the national Central Criminal Records Exchange for persons who are offered or accept school board employment, whether on a temporary, permanent, or part- or full-time basis. The records are searched for felonies and misdemeanors involving drugs, abuse or neglect of children, moral turpitude, obscenity offenses, and sexual assault. In addition, localities requiring these records checks will also receive reports of arrests for these crimes for current employees, who must then submit to fingerprinting and a criminal records check. Under current law, the school board may require applicants and employees to pay for the fingerprinting and records check or may pay for these services from such funds as may be available for that purpose. Incorporated in HB 521.
