Although a background check is useless if there has never been a criminal offense..it does provide at least SOME peace of mind.I work at a school system. My contact with students is very minimal. In order to work with children I had to pass a background check, a physical and have a clean driving record. Days my pass and I won't speak to a single student. I will never drive a single student anywhere. People working even near kids need to be held to a higher standard. My kid came from gymnastics. I made the mistake of assuming(i know) that USASF and USAG were on par with each other. It wasn't until this thread yesterday and found out no one is required to do a background check. Where is the smiley with the cart in front of the horse.
