Visiting Hawkins Path

Middle Country Central School District Policy:
 

To promote effective communication between the citizens of the community and the school system, the Board of Education encourages parents and other citizens to visit their schools periodically during the course of the school year.

 

All visitors shall be required to show photo ID (identification) to appropriate school personnel and record their name and purpose of visit. Upon the completion of said requirements the visitor will be provided with a visitation pass. All visitors must remain in the visitor registration area until such a time as the party they are visiting arrives to receive them unless otherwise directed by the building principal or designee. The Superintendent, or designee, shall develop guidelines for the implementation of this policy.

 

When individual Board members visit the schools, they must abide by the regulations and procedures developed by the administration regarding school visits.

 

Visits to school buildings are to be in accordance with the Board regulations posted in conspicuous places. All visitors are to conduct themselves in a civil manner. Obscene language, libelous statements, threats of violence, statements advocating racial, religious, or other forms of prejudice will not be tolerated. A violation of the visitation policy shall be prosecuted pursuant to New York State law.
