  • This report includes anything for which you have been arrested and/or convicted.
  • This report also includes information on arrests, convictions, or plea bargains for which you may have subsequently received pre-trial interventions, pardons, or expungements.

That does NOT excuse you from listing these on your application even if the charges were dropped.

  • There is no time limit or other reason to fail to report an arrest or conviction.

YOUR SIGNATURE BELOW INDICATES THE FOLLOWING:

  • You have read and understand the above.
  • You understand that your employment is contingent upon a satisfactory record check that is in accordance with the answers you provided.
  • Record checks sometimes take significant time to be returned.
  • You understand that our offer of employment is based on an evaluation of the information you have provided. If that information is inaccurate, false, or misleading, that will be grounds to terminate your employment upon receipt of the report.

Louisiana Revised Statues 17:3884 provides that a school board considering the employment application of a person who has been evaluated in another school system shall request such person's evaulation results as part of the application process and shall inform the applicant that his/her evaluation results will be requested. The applicant shall be given the opportunity to review any informatiion received by the prospective employer as a result of such request and to provide any response or information the applicant deems appropriate.
