Level II Background Check

If you plan to chaperone a field trip or volunteer on campus, you must complete a level two background check, which includes fingerprinting.

To complete this process:

  • Fill out the form

  • Receive email regarding fingerprinting process.

  • Pay for fingerprinting (Cost varies by location).

  • Attend your appointment.

  • Receive an email upon clearance. 

  • Once cleared, you can attend field trips and will receive emails about volunteer opportunities on campus.

  • On February 23, 2023, the St Johns Classical Academy Board of Directors adopted a policy to comply with Senate Bill 2524, 435.12 Florida Statutes to enhance background screenings within schools.  By taking these steps, our school continues to make safety a priority.

  • Plan for 30 minutes.

  • The cost for fingerprinting varies by location and will likely range between $85-$100.

  • Yes.

  • The information you share with the school is confidential.

  • Yes. SJCA does require parents/guardians to wear a specific t-shirt for field trips and volunteer opportunities on campus. 

    On the Fleming Island campus, you can purchase a t-shirt through the Lions Council website and pick it up at the reception building. The cost is $15.

    On the Orange Park campus, you can purchase a t-shirt at the front desk. The cost is $15.  

  • You can visit campus for events, award ceremonies, or to eat lunch with your scholar without this clearance, but if you plan to volunteer or attend a field trip, you must complete the Level II Background Check.

  • If cleared, it will last for five years. (Note: There is no longer a one-year option).
