What if I have a background check through my school or district?

Educators and staff members with a current background check through their school or district may be eligible for our Background Check Waiver.*

Schools and districts in the United States may opt to submit a Background Check Waiver for their Team Managers with an existing background check.

1. NEW FOR 25-26: Go to our online Background Check Waiver from the background check page on the DI website.
2. Complete the Background Check Waiver form:
   1. Attach a signed copy/scan of this agreement where indicated in the form.
   2. Add the eligible Team Managers to the list. Please ensure that you list the email address each team manager uses for their DI account.
   3. You may return to the online form to add additional Team Managers at any time, but you will need to upload your signed agreement each time you use the form.
3. Please allow 5-10 days for your Team Managers to be marked eligible in our system. Waivers are processed in the order in which they are received.

*California schools and districts are not eligible to use our Background Check Waiver.  Learn more about options for California in this article.
