04.01 - 04.02 ATTENDANCE/ACTIVITIES/CLASSROOM VISITATION
04.01 Attendance/Activities

The Board of Education believes that attendance in regularly scheduled classes is a key factor in student achievement. Thus, any absence from those classes represents an educational loss to the student. The board recognizes, however, that the cocurricular program of the technology center also has educational benefit. Therefore, it shall be the policy of this board to minimize absenteeism from regular classes while providing students the opportunity to participate in cocurricular activities.

04.02 Classroom Visitation 

In order to provide students with a reasonable opportunity to study and learn, it is the policy of the board of education to restrict classroom visitation to a minimum.

Any person who needs to visit a classroom or other technology center facility must obtain permission from the superintendent or executive director of instructional development’s office. Visitors on technology center property without permission may be asked to leave the premises.

The superintendent shall establish appropriate procedures to provide for a safe environment for students, staff members and patrons. Such procedures will include posting notices at the entrances to the technology center building. The notices will require visitors to report to the building administration’s office before visiting any classroom or other facility.

Building administrators are authorized discretion in permitting visitation.

Classroom visitors will respect classroom decorum and will not interrupt the class in any way. Visitors who disrupt the classroom or the campus in any manner will be required to leave the technology center grounds.
