Hopkinton Public Schools is required by M.G.L. c. 71, §38R, to request criminal offender record information (CORI) from the Massachusetts Criminal History Systems Board (CHSB) for both present and future employees or volunteers in any Hopkinton Public Schools program who have direct and unmonitored contact with children. Hopkinton Public Schools also must obtain CORI on all school bus drivers, and on all taxi cab drivers transporting special education children in the district. Hopkinton Public Schools has been certified by the Criminal History Systems Board for access to such conviction and pending criminal case data.
The law also allows schools to conduct CORI checks on subcontractors or laborers commissioned to do work on school grounds that may have direct and unmonitored contact with children. This includes school bus or van drivers employed by a transportation company under contract with the district to provide transportation services to students.
The school/district personnel must:
® review the completeness, legibility, and accuracy of the completed Request Forms in order to avoid inadvertent errors
® verify the individual's identity by reviewing a government issued form of photographic identification
® document verification on the Request Form, and attach a copy of the identification to the completed form
® NO CORI will be processed if the Request Form is not complete or the individual's identity has not been verified by reviewing a form of photographic identification and obtaining and attaching a copy of such identification.

Each organization, i.e., schools, scouts, youth soccer, etc. must run their own CORI check for the law does not permit the sharing of information between organizations.
