Employment Application

I understand that if I am hired, my employment will be under a Letter of Appointment, which will establish my wages and terms and conditions of this employment. No one other than the Headmaster has the authority to modify this relationship or make any agreement to the contrary. Any such modification shall be in writing.

I understand that Westminster Academy reserves the right to require me to submit to a drug test at such times and in a manner as defined by School Board policy. It also reserves the right to require me to submit to an alcohol test and medical examination to the extent permitted by law. I further understand that Westminster Academy may contact my previous employers, and I authorize those employers to disclose to the school all records and other information pertinent to my employment with them. I release my previous employers from liability due to their disclosing information about me to Westminster Academy. I also authorize Westminster Academy to provide truthful information concerning my employment to my future prospective employers, and I agree to hold it harmless for providing such information.

I also understand that I must abide by Westminster Academy’s policies and procedures, whether outlined in my Letter of Appointment, in school publications or manuals, or otherwise communicated to me. By signing below, I certify that all the information I provide on this application and in any interview will be true, complete, and accurate. I understand that if I am employed and any such information is later found to be false or misleading, I will be dismissed.

I certify that I have received a written notification that Westminster Academy may obtain a consumer report or reports on me. I authorize Westminster Academy to obtain such a report or reports for use in connection with my employment application and other employment-related reasons. If hired, this authorization shall remain on file and serve as ongoing authorization for procuring employment-related consumer reports at any time during my employment. I understand that the term “consumer report” includes, but is not limited to, credit checks, criminal background checks, department of motor vehicle reports, and investigative consumer reports. I further understand that the term “investigative consumer report” means a report in which information on my character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with my neighbors, friends, or associates or with others with whom I am acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information.
