Fingerprinting
Employment opportunities in the Monticello School District
Fingerprinting
New York State has instituted a new law, requiring all persons seeking
employment in a school district must be fingerprinted, have background checks
and be issued a clearance by the State Education Department prior to starting
work. New employees who have not completed this process in another school
district must request a fingerprinting packet at the Monticello School District
Office immediately upon returning all paperwork.
A fee of $74 is charge and must be forwarded in the form of a Certified Check or
Money Order made payable to the “New York State Education Department.”
The fingerprinting process takes about three weeks to complete, and it is
therefore important that prospective employees complete this process as soon as
possible. At the present time, fingerprinting is available by appointment at the
locations listed below.
