- Find an IdentoGo location
- Schedule an appointment
- Read the SAFIS Registration Guide
- Sign the Background Checks Acknowledgment form
- Gather acceptable forms of identification
- Read the legal FAQs on background checks
- Change, correct, or update your national criminal history record response
- Provide a copy of your fingerprinting receipt to the HR office

Done this before?
If you have already been fingerprinted for another Massachusetts school district, ask that district to send Canton a suitability determination letter.
