I got in trouble in 2011 got first offender probation for 10 years. I haven't gotten in trouble at all. I got offered a job working for a school. They want me to do a background check at the police station. Will it show up on my record?

If you were convicted and placed on probation, yes, it will show up.

Be on your record for 10 years unless expunged by a judge. It's already 5 years so you should know what's on your record. Do you report to a PO?

That's not true it's doesn't always show up ivery had background checks done for jobs in the 5 years and it didn't show up. My question is being that I had to do it at the police station using my finger prints will it show up.

It will show up on a real police background check.

Each state has its own rules on what is released (police will always see it)
And some background checks are a higher level. Such as those for national security clearances.

So the answer is maybe and most likely.
