Policy 4140 - Visitors to the Schools

Visitors to the Schools
While the Charter School encourages visits by Board members, parents, and citizens to the Charter School, all visitors are required to report to the front office upon entering the school building.

The Principal shall ensure that prominent notices are posted at each entrance requiring that all visitors must first report to the Principal’s office. This includes all parents, Directors, volunteers, social service workers, invited speakers, maintenance and repair persons not employed by the Charter School, salespersons, representatives of the news media, former students, and any other visitors.

Visits to individual classrooms during instructional time shall be permitted only with the Principal’s and teacher’s approval and such visits shall not be permitted if their duration or frequency interferes with the delivery of instruction or disrupts the normal school environment.

Conferences should be held outside school hours or during the teacher’s conference or prep time.
