<strong>Kingsport</strong> <strong>City</strong> <strong>Schools</strong> is committed to the success of our students. Our schools<br />

offer a wide variety of tutoring and academic assistance opportunities for students,<br />

including after-school programs at most sites. Referral to tutoring and academic<br />

assistance programs is provided as a service to our students to help them succeed<br />

and is not a disciplinary measure. Parents and/or students should contact their school<br />

office for more information.<br />

VisitoRs<br />

Parents are always welcome. You are encouraged to visit and work in partnership<br />

with our total school program. Parents must obtain approval from the main office<br />

before being permitted access to instructional areas. As a matter of convenience<br />

and courtesy, arrangements should also be made in advance with the teacher. All<br />

visitors should enter the building through the front door, sign in at the main office<br />

and receive a visitor’s pass. <strong>Student</strong>s from other schools are not permitted without<br />

administrative approval.<br />
