Verification & EEOC Statement

Sharyland Independent School District is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate in hiring based on age, race, color, creed, religion, disability, gender, ethnic or national origin, or military or veteran status. SISD prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities and will reasonably accommodate applicants with a disability, upon request.

By submitting an online application to the Sharyland Independent School District, you acknowledge that you understand and accept the following statement.

I certify that all the information contained in this application is true and correct, and I further understand that any misstatement or omission of information may be grounds for disqualification or immediate dismissal. I authorize all persons listed in this application to give the District any and all information regarding my employment and education and any other pertinent information they may have, personal or otherwise, and release all parties, such persons, and the District for any damage that may result from furnishing same to the District. I understand that under state law, SISD may obtain any criminal history record information pertaining to me. The District may obtain such information from any law enforcement agency, including a police department or the Department of Public Safety, or from the Texas Department of Corrections or similar out-of-state entities. If employed by the district, I agree to conform to all district policies and procedures. I further understand that no representative of the District, other than the Superintendent or designee, has any authority to enter into any agreement, oral or written, for employment for any specified period of time, or to make any assurance of continued employment. This application becomes public record and is subject to disclosure.

I have been notified that a computerized criminal history (CCH) verification check will be performed by accessing the Texas Department of Public Safety secure website and will be based on name and date of birth identifiers I supply. Because the name-based information is not an exact search and only fingerprint record searches represent true identification to criminal history, SISD is not allowed to discuss ANY criminal history record information obtained using the name and date of birth method. Therefore, SISD may request that I have a fingerprint search performed to clear any misidentification based on the result of the name and date of birth search. For the fingerprinting process I will be required to submit a full and complete set of my fingerprints for analysis through the Texas Department of Public Safety (AFIS) Automated Fingerprint Identification System. I have been made aware that in order to complete this process I must make an appointment, submit a complete set of my fingerprints, request a copy be sent to SISD, and pay a fee to the fingerprinting services company. Once this process is completed and SISD receives the data from DPS, the information in my fingerprint criminal history record may be discussed with me.

I authorize Sharyland ISD to review and consider the results of my educator certification examinations pursuant to Texas Education Code 21.048(c-1) as needed for the duration of my employment. The results of these examinations will be reviewed to obtain information relevant to my qualifications for continued employment with the District.
