St. Bartholomew Strives to Maintain a Safe Environment for All
Protecting our Students Does NOT Stop at our State of the Art Security System

- All employees and volunteers who have contact with students undergo thorough screening, including background checks through the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation & Identification (BCI&I). For complete information on screening policies, see the revised Policy for the Safety of Children in Matters of Sexual Abuse, section 1.2 (p. 3).
- All employees and volunteers also actively participate in VIRTUS Training.
