  • Resources:
  • Important Information Discussed in regard to background checks for school volunteers:
    • Volunteers are not required to have a background check completed, although school boards certainly could adopt a policy requiring this.

      C.R.S. 22-32-109.7 does require the board of education to conduct a background check “prior to the employment of any person by a school district.”  This would apply to licensed and non licensed positions. The applicant may not be convicted of felony child abuse, a crime of violence, a felony involving unlawful sexual behavior, a felony that has an underlying factual basis of domestic violence, a felony drug offense committed after August 25, 2012, felony indecent exposure. There are other requirements relating to the background check which I can explain further if you’d like.

      The definition of “position of employment” in C.R.S. 22-32-109.8 does not include volunteers, it means “any job or position in which any person may be engaged in the service of a school district for salary or hourly wage, whether full time or part time and whether temporary or permanent.”
