In order to volunteer for ANYTHING at my kids school parents must be fingerprinted and submit to a background check as well as taking a class. If I recall it cost around 50.00 total. There is no price to secure our childrens safety.
 
If I wanted to substitute teach at my old HS (where I was once a student), I had to get fingerprinted and the like. And I've known some of the kids since they were little ones..
 
Would a background check do much? I don't know how it works in the US, but generally without a conviction, it wouldn't show up on a background check, and in Canada a person can also pay to remove minor crimes from their record (although that isn't the case for assault, sexual assault, murder, etc.), so I'm wondering truly how effective a background check would have been in this situation, afterall, it did say he wasn't convicted the first time right?
