School and day care employees would be required to self-report any felonies or certain misdemeanors under legislation introduced today to protect children from abusive educators.
Employees would face a two-year felony for not reporting a sex crime arrest to their employer and to the Department of Education and a one-year misdemeanor for other crimes. To ensure compliance, the teachers' criminal history would be checked monthly with a state police database.
