U. PAID ASSEMBLIES
Paid assemblies and/or entertainment will be approved by the principal. All schools will be limited
to three paid assemblies involving outside entertainment. Grant funds cannot be used to provide
additional paid assemblies. It will be the principal's responsibility to determine that only quality
entertainment is used.
Principals are encouraged to set up a yearly calendar and schedule all such assemblies for the entire
year. The calendar of activities and assemblies for the entire year may then be printed and
distributed early in the fall semester.
Programs, assemblies, concerts, plays, etc., from other schools in the district, must be scheduled
through all involved principals.
V. SALESPEOPLE, AGENTS, FUNDRAISING, ETC.
Access to schools will be limited to:
salespeople, vendors, agents, etc. who are directly involved in school fundraisers or other
school functions;
those individuals listed above must have a vendor letter for the current school year signed
by the director of special programs.
W. LOCAL FUND RAISING ACTIVITIES
The purpose of fundraising activities is to provide additional financial support to the academic, cocurricular
and extra-curricular programs available to students on campus.
Campuses may conduct fund raising activities throughout the school year. Consideration must be
given for minimum disruption of instructional time during the school day.
Raffles, lotteries and other games of chance are prohibited by State Law, and shall not be conducted
on school property or by school organizations.
Organizations identified as a non-profit with a 501(c) status are not permitted to conduct raffles,
lotteries and other games of chance on district property.
All fund raising activities must be approved and scheduled through the building principal with
specific goals for the activity stated in the proposal. The principal will schedule fund raising
activities based on three general criteria:
length of time required for the fund raising activity
number of fund raising activities scheduled for any given time period
number of fund raising activities scheduled for any one program or organization
Students who participate in fund raising will be held accountable for those items which they
volunteer to sell or the money which will be generated by the sale of those items.
Parents must consent for their child to fund raise by signing the appropriate form and understand that
they are held accountable and responsible for fund raising items and monies.
Students will not be allowed to conduct fund raising activities door-to-door or on the street.
X. LIBRARY FINES: GRADES 5-6
The intermediate classroom teacher is responsible for ensuring that students have the opportunity to
