Students and faculty of the schools are to be protected from intrusions on their time by announcements, posters, bulletins, or people running for political or elective office, and communications of any kind from individuals and organizations not directly connected with the schools.

Materials distributed via the schools to students by nonschool connected organizations must not contain advertising which is beneficial to any particular group or business.

The administration of surveys, questionnaires, and requests for information by nonschool connected organizations will be disallowed within the discretion of the Superintendent or designee.

The Superintendent, director of elementary education, director of secondary education, assistant superintendent of learning services, and principals are urged to interpret this policy strictly. Exceptions may be made when, in their judgment, the best interests of the students will be served. In case of differences of opinion, the decision of the Superintendent will be final.

In all cases, the above policies will be executed by the Superintendent or designee. When any group or organization is not satisfied with the judgment of the Superintendent or designee as exercised under this policy, it may petition the Board in writing.
