File: ECA/ECAB - Security/Access to Buildings

Security for district buildings and grounds (during regular school hours as well as non-school hours) contributes to the well being and safety of students and staff as well as to that of the sites themselves. For safety and security purposes, access to school buildings, whether by students, staff members or visitors, shall be limited as deemed appropriate for each school building.

Each school building shall be inspected annually to address removal of hazards and vandalism and any other barriers to safety and supervision.

Alarm systems and other devices designed to protect buildings against illegal entry and vandalism may be installed where appropriate.
