Visitors/Volunteers (page 20)

VISITORS/VOLUNTEERS MUST WEAR A VISITOR’S BADGE AT ALL TIMES WHILE IN THE BUILDING. Every person must sign in with a Photo ID in the front office upon arrival and sign out upon leaving. Bags and coolers are subject to check before entering the school. Arrangements must be made in advance with the principal and/or teacher before visiting or observing in a classroom. Parents may not visit on our playground during recess time. This is a time that requires the teacher's undivided attention on the students. If there is a special need to observe a child's social activity, it must be arranged with the teacher and/or the principal..
