Board of Education Visitors
The Board welcomes visits to school by parents/guardians,
Board members, other adult residents of the community and interested educators,
when they fit into the classroom or school routine. In order for the
educational program to continue undisturbed when visitors are present, and to
prevent the intrusion of disruptive persons into the schools, the
Superintendent shall devise regulations controlling visitors.
All visitors shall be required to report to the principal's
office upon entering the building. A "visitor" is
anyone other than a pupil enrolled in or a staff member employed in the
particular school. Visitors may not consult with the teaching staff or pupils
during class time without the principal's permission.
When the parental rights of a parent have been terminated or
modified by a court of competent jurisdiction, the legal guardian must inform
the school so that the administration may apply appropriate regulations. The
principal shall confirm legal guardianship.
No one may visit the school during school hours for the
purpose of offering any items for sale. No person shall be allowed to deliver
any address or lecture on any subject unless authorized by the Superintendent
or designee.
All visitors to the schools must obey regulations
prohibiting smoking and any other regulations designed to ensure orderly
operation of the school. All persons violating this policy shall be considered
"disorderly persons" and subject to appropriate action.
