The Board recognizes that the safety of the District's students and staff is paramount.

Under the Board's general delegation of authority to the Superintendent of Schools, the Superintendent will establish procedures for securing a criminal records check for every person offered employment with the District.

At the discretion of the Superintendent, or designate, where information contained in a criminal records check brings into question the suitability of the person to work for a school district, an offer of employment may be rescinded or employment may be terminated.
