by Brianna Crandall — September 10, 2014—PVF Security Consulting recently announced the firm has partnered with a nationally recognized background investigation services firm to offer an affordable background check solution to U.S. K-12 (kindergarten to 12th grade) school districts looking for improved screening of individuals needing access to students and school property.
This visitor screening service also includes optional monthly monitoring of those requiring ongoing access to their local campus throughout the school year, said Patrick V. Fiel, president and founder of PVF Security Consulting and a nationally recognized school security expert.
“Schools count on the involvement of parents, guardians and other volunteers,” said Fiel. “But administrators need to feel safe about the people that come into contact with students. That requires a background check on every person that enters a campus. By working with a leading background investigation services firm, we can offer a very affordable, high-quality screening solution for individual schools or entire districts.”
The background checks offered by PVF Consulting will comb through more than 500 million criminal records from counties, departments of corrections, administrative offices of courts, and sex offender registries from all 50 states; Washington, DC; Guam and Puerto Rico. Also included are national and international terrorism sources and more than 13 million photos, says Fiel.
School administrators and facilities/security professionals who are interested in more information on this background check service are advised to visit the PVF Security Consulting Web site and click on the link for Affordable School District Background Checks.
