Your thinking about working in a school district. You go an get an application. You fill it out. Then you turn it in. Then they ask you for $52.20. It doesn't matter if you get the job or not. You still have to pay $52.20
This is the new teacher fingerprint law that is now into effect. Basically, what the state is saying. If you can't afford the $52.20. Then we don't want you. Can you imagine. That it has come to this. You have to pay to apply! God Help Us!
State officials have set aside about $10 million to fingerprint teachers and other state-certified educators. Bus drivers and other noneducational employees are stuck with the $52 fee unless school districts pay it for them.
How did Aaron Pena vote on this bill? He didn't vote. Typical Aaron Pena! But he was there!
We elect him to be our voice up in Austin and then he doesn't vote!
