The Board of Directors believes everyone should treat school district buildings and sites and property with respect for the benefit of the education program.  Users of school district property will treat it with care.  Employees discovering vandalism should report it to the building principal as soon as possible.

Persons suspected, found, or proven to have destroyed or otherwise harmed school district property may be subject to discipline by the school district, if the person is under the jurisdiction of the school district, and may be reported to local law enforcement officials.  Persons who are not under the jurisdiction of the school district and who are suspected, found or proven to have destroyed or otherwise harmed school district property will be reported to the local law enforcement authorities.

It is the philosophy of the South Tama County Board of Directors to protect all school district property.   Because some property may be damaged by public use by recreational vehicles, the Board of Education prohibits recreational vehicles from school property.

1.   Restriction

All recreational vehicles shall be restricted from school district property.  This will include snowmobiles, three wheelers, four wheelers and other recreational vehicles that may damage school property.

 

2.   Hours of Restriction

The restriction shall be for seven (7) days per week and twenty-four hours per day.

 

3.   Exceptions

            a.  Any recreational vehicle that is being used as part of the instructional program may be driven to the classroom area.

            b.  Recreational vehicles that are authorized by state law to operate on a hard surface area may function under the same restriction placed on other automobiles driving on
                 school property.

 

4.   Enforcement

The South Tama County Board of Education authorizes all law enforcement agencies the authority to enforce this policy.  It shall also be the responsibility of all district administration to take action against anyone in violation of this policy.
