CRIMINAL HISTORY RECORD CHECK. 39.1 In accordance with State law, the Board of Education requires a criminal background check including information from the Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation (BCII) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) of each applicant the Superintendent recommends for employment and on a periodic basis. 39.2 The Board will pay up to $50.00 cost for state and federal background checks required by the Ohio Revised Code as to a unit member. Such payment will be made directly to the Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation once the unit member completes the background checks. 39.3 A criminal background check is not required of any currently-employed staff member who is a candidate for another position in the District, unless otherwise required by law. 39.4 The Superintendent shall establish administrative guidelines that require an appropriate record check that complies with the law. 39.5 Any information and records obtained from such inquiries are not public records and shall be kept confidential and not released or disseminated. 39.6 Should it be necessary to employ a person to maintain continuity of the District’s operations, prior to receipt of the criminal history record, the Superintendent may employ the person on a provisional basis until the report is received. 39.7 All custodial, maintenance and grounds employees who are the subject of a criminal records check, including applicants hired provisionally in advance of a completed records check, and who it is determined have pled guilty to or been convicted of any offense enumerated under R.C. 3319.39 (B) (1) including a judicial finding for intervention in lieu of conviction and/or participation in a pre- trial diversion program relating to any of the offenses listed therein, shall not be hired or shall be released from employment, as applicable, unless such individual meets the rehabilitation standards adopted by the Ohio Department of Education under division (E) of that section at the time of the hiring and/or upon discovery of such plea or conviction by the Board.
