Welcome to Human Resources!  This page provides you with information related to your employment with the district.  Please take a moment to review these documents carefully and contact us with any questions or comments at (734) 532-1663.

 

 

The State of Michigan "School Safety" legislation (2005 PA 129-131 and 138) recently enacted into law, has an impact on your employment with the school district. Employees convicted of any felony or a misdemeanor from the lists below must notify the Human Resources Department of their conviction (even if noted on your employment application).

 

After January 1, 2006, the new law requires you, as an employee of the district/school to self-report to your employer and the Michigan Department of Education when you have been arraigned/charged with certain identified crimes. (See the listing in Exhibit B). You must do so within three business days of arraignment or you will be guilty of an additional crime. The Human Resources Department can provide the reporting form. This information is confidential and protected with legislative criminal penalties for inappropriate disclosure.

 

The law now prohibits a school district from employing, in any capacity, a person convicted of a listed offense, (see the listing in Exhibit A). Individuals currently employed by a school district, who are on the sex offenders registry, must be dismissed from employment.

 

Non-paid, classroom volunteers do not need to be fingerprinted but do need to complete the Volunteer Consent Form found below under "Resources".  The completed form is to be returned to the main office at the school building. 

All employees of Romulus Community Schools are required to abide by the policies and regulations of the Board of Education. Copies of these policies and regulations are kept in the main office of all school buildings, the Superintendent’s office, and the Human Resource office. They are also located on the District website.

Schools are prohibited from allowing covered individuals who are convicted of "listed offenses" to work under contract in any school. Fingerprints are done through L-1 Identity Solutions.  See L-1 Identity Solutions website for more information.
