The Leon County School District utilizes the V-Soft Program by Raptor Technologies to check whether visitors to schools are Sexual Predators/Offenders. The “Raptor” program checks a database of 48 states to determine whether a visitor is a Sexual Predator/Offender. The LCSB has purchased a license to utilize the software which allows the District to conduct this search. A visitor submits his/her Drivers License or Florida ID Card at the school site and it is then scanned. The scanner reads the First Name, Last Name, Date of Birth and Drivers License Number. This information is then encrypted and sent through the Internet the Raptor Server where it is checked against the Raptor Sexual Predator/Offender database.  Raptor Technologies retains this information on a secure server so that the next time the information is scanned by a school, the system does a “Quick Find” to shorten the processing time. The school may run a report to determine who has visited the school site. The report will only list First Name, Last Name and Date of Birth. It doesn’t list any child’s information nor whether the person is a parent, volunteer, mentor, vendor or general visitor. The Leon County School District’s priority is the safety of our children!
