Senate Bill 9, also known as the "Fingerprinting
Bill" was signed into law by Governor Perry in the
Fall of 2007. This bill requires that all substitute
teachers and classified substitutes hired after January
1, 2008 undergo a national criminal history record
information review by the Texas Education Agency (TEA).
Therefore, before you can be employed as a teacher
substitute or classified substitute in Hays CISD, you
will be required to provide your fingerprints to be
checked against the national criminal history database.
You will be required to pay the up front fees
associated with the fingerprinting process. The cost is
from $51.00 - $53.00 depending on method of payment.
A Texas school district must request a "FastPass"
on your behalf to begin the fingerprinting process. Once
the "FastPass" is obtained, you will need to
make an appointment with the fingerprinting vendor, IBT.
When you have paid for and been fingerprinted at IBT,
they will issue you a receipt. Any school district that
you substitute for will need to copy this receipt for
their records.
If you wish to have Hays CISD request a FastPass from
the Texas Education Agency, please email Tricia
Griffith: GriffithT@hayscisd.net
. You will receive a return email with instructions for
obtaining your FastPass.
After fingerprinting: bring, fax or mail a copy
of your receipt to Tricia Griffith, Substitute
Specialist (info below). Once your receipt is on file in
our substitute office, you may sign up to attend the
next available orientation session.
IMPORTANT:
* Individuals who have already
submitted fingerprints for the Texas Education Agency
will not need to complete the process again for Hays
CISD, however, we will need subscribe to your
fingerprint results with TEA. Please send an email
requesting that we subscribe to your prints that are
already on file with TEA, once we have subscribed to
your results, we will let you know (by email) so that
you may register for an upcoming substitute orientation
session.
