The Visitor, Volunteer, and Observation Policy

As per the guidelines in our Parent/Student Handbook, Concordia Charter School (CCS) requires all visitors to check in at the front office. Students who wish to invite visitors and guest speakers to CCS should proceed through the appropriate teacher and get permission from the administrator or designee before the visit. Parents who wish to speak with students during school hours are asked to proceed through the front office staff. Parents who need to speak with teachers are asked to set an appointment in advance. Parents of students may volunteer in the classroom but are asked to respect classroom procedures and speak with students or teachers outside of class time.

School Guidelines for Visitors

1. All visitors must report to the office upon arrival, sign the visitor’s register, and wear a visitor’s badge while on school grounds. When done with a visit, visitors must sign out when leaving. Visitors attending public school functions are not required to sign in.
2. Schools are places of work and learning; visitors must respect and follow the school code of conduct to maintain this environment.
3. Parents and community members wishing to observe a classroom must arrange visits with the teacher(s) in advance to minimize disruptions.
4. Unauthorized persons or people without a “visitors badge’ on school property will be reported and asked to leave. Police may be called if necessary.
