[NAGDU] Criminal background check

[Stacie Hardy - NFBHOU]

Hello all, first, I'd like to wish all of the dads on this list a very happy Father's Day. Hope each of you have a wonderful day.
Regarding criminal background checks, I personally don't have a problem with them. I do however think that the websites need to be accessible. Maybe the school should reach out to the Federation and ask which website they use for these checks. I know from personal experience these websites are accessible.
