Spotlight on Safety: Field Signage at Schools

The District has policies, practices, and procedures to maintain the security of District facilities and to support the safety of students, staff, and visitors. As part of the comprehensive safety plan, each school has signs indicating District property boundaries. Use of the tracks, playground areas and other District outdoor facilities is not permitted during the school day or after dusk. The District thanks the community for its support and cooperation.
