[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MCPS once again fails to keep someone with a criminal record from working at a school with children present. Instead of focusing how to do better in the future,  the MCPS response is to deflect and blame the contractor.

As a parent,  I have to scan my driver's license to enter a school.  Why isn't MCPS checking who is working at their school?  Delegating the responsibility to a contractor who knows that there is no MCPS check as to who is on site and who may have a financial incentive to let someone who can't pass the background check work on site is negligent by MCPS.

Why don’t people read the article? It clearly says he failed mcps’s background check and the construction company employed him illegally anyway.[/quote]

I did read the article. It shows a huge gap in school security by MCPS.

Who hires that particular construction company? MCPS

Why was the construction worker at a MCPS high school with children present?  [b]Because MCPS is not checking that the workers at the school have the credentials to be working in an area with children.[/b]  School security needs a method to know who is cleared to work at the school and who is not.  That's MCPS' falt.

MCPS has a history of contract workers abusing children in schools yet they haven't closed this gap in school security.   The problem should be addressed by the Board of Education asap.

From the article: "the construction company employing Booker was responsible for ensuring he was eligible to work on school grounds."
