FBI Criminal Background Check:
If you have lived in the State of Pennsylvania for the past 10 or more consecutive years, you may sign a fingerprinting waiver, and you will not need to be fingerprinted. If you have not lived in Pennsylvania you will need to be fingerprinted. Follow the instructions below.

For those who have not lived in Pennsylvania for the past 10 or more consecutive years or who do not live in Pennsylvania: Fingerprinting is done at the Franklin County Career and Technology Center on Loop Road in Chambersburg, but you need to schedule and register online. Here it the link to do so: https://uenroll.identogo.com/. Our service code is 1KG6TR. It's a non-public school code. You will pay when you are fingerprinted. This needs to be updated every five (5) years.

Please contact the school office if you have any questions.
