Pre-Employment Criminal Background Check

The primary concern of Mahtomedi Public Schools is to offer the students of the district a meaningful and safe educational experience. To assist in achieving this goal, the District requires that individuals seeking employment or volunteer opportunities undergo a criminal background check.

Your completed form must be accompanied by a payment for $12.00 online. This covers only a portion of the cost of the background check.

As the subject of the background check, you have the following rights:

To be informed that a background check is being requested about you for the purpose of employment, or purpose of volunteering, by Mahtomedi Public Schools/Independent School District No. 832.
To be informed that a background check is being requested to determine whether you have been convicted of any crimes listed on the informed consent form.
To be notified by Trusted Employees of the response to the background check and of your right to request a copy of the background check report.
To obtain from Trusted Employees any record that forms the basis for the background check report and to challenge the accuracy or completeness of the information.
To be informed by the district if your contingent offer of employment has been denied because of the background check.
