Safe Kids Gateway

The School District of Lancaster is pleased to present the Safe Kids Gateway! Safe Kids is a secure online system that allows parents and community members to upload all State-required clearance documentation directly to the system through either a computer or a mobile device. Please note: establishing a Safe Kids account does not automatically approve you to work in the District. You must apply for all appropriate background checks and receive approval from the system first.

It is easiest to complete a Safe Kids application when you have all of your clearance documentation ready. Please visit the Clearances page to learn more about which clearances are necessary.
