Dear Parents,

The Madison City School Board is now requiring all volunteers in contact with students to have a background check. This is required for all chaperones, equipment crew, photographers, and any others that are in contact with the students. The band is required to check and make sure all volunteers have completed this background check. Please follow the instructions below to complete your background check and submit your approved background check to the band.

To complete the background check: Please go to our BJHS Band website, bjhsband.com, and click on the “Background Check” button in the center of the page. There is a cost of $14.95. It is an easy process and it only takes a few minutes to complete. You will receive your card in the mail after your background check is complete.

When you do receive your approval: Please take a picture, or scan, of the front of your card and send it to:

bjhsband.forms@gmail.com

Please put Background Check and your name in the subject line. For instance, my email subject would be:

Background Check Janine Reardon

If you are an employee of MCS, you have a background check and that counts. Please take a picture, or scan, of the front of your badge and send it to bjhsband.forms@gmail.com. Please put Background Check and your name in the subject line.

Because this is not an instant check, please continue to use the Lobby Guard check in the lobby of the school until you receive your background check approval. You can bring the sticker to the band room and place it in the band box.

PLEASE COMPLETE THIS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

Thank you for your cooperation with this new requirement.

Janine Reardon
