BUILDING & PLAYGROUND

Students are not to go off the school grounds without the permission of the teacher or teachers' aide in charge.

The patio can be used as a play area. However, the students are not to use balls, stones, sticks, or any other play equipment that could result in broken glass from the windows. This policy is to prevent any accident that might occur.

Recess and scheduled playtime is offered to give the students time to run, play, and exercise. Students are asked to go outside for fresh air unless the teacher or teachers' aide in charge feels the weather is not accommodating for good health. The students that remain in the building at these times are asked to comply with the instructions of the teacher in charge of the school building.

The playground will be supervised by authorized personnel between the hours of 7:50 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.

Due to depreciation and destruction of school property while school is not in session evenings and weekends, the following rule will apply:

"No one is allowed on or about the school grounds during
hours when school is not in session. This prohibits
playing on the playground equipment, riding bicycles,
scooters, small cars, motorcycles, and horses on the
walks around the school building. Cars are not to be
in the driveways, roads, or any part of the school
grounds. However, children under the supervision of a
parent can use the playground equipment after 4:30 p.m.
or on conference days if a parent is conferencing with
a teacher."

Authorized groups that meet in the school are exempt from the above regulation during their meeting hours. Leaders and adults in charge should see that people in a meeting leave for their homes immediately after the meeting is closed.

School facilities are available to the community for education, civic, cultural, and other noncommercial uses consistent with the public interest, when such use does not interfere with the school program or school-sponsored activities. Use of school facilities for school purposes has precedence over all other uses. Persons on school premises must abide by the District's conduct rules at all times.

Student and school-related organizations shall be granted the use of school facilities at no cost. Other organizations granted the use of the facility shall pay fees and costs.

Use of school facilities requires the Board's approval and is subject to the procedures.
The Board shall approve and schedule the various uses of the school facilities. Requests for use of the school facilities must be submitted to the Board in advance of the event.

The Board of Trustees will have all buildings and properties adequately covered by insurance, guided by the advice of their agent.
