Classroom Visits by Parents/Legal Guardians

Parents/legal guardians of students who are enrolled in the District or who wish to enroll their student in a District school or program may schedule a visit, tour, and/or observation of the classroom and of the school. Parents may schedule a tour by contacting the building principal of the school that they would like to visit. The District administration shall permit a visit, tour, and/or observation unless doing so threatens the health and safety of students or District staff.

The building principal may schedule the time and duration of a visit, tour, and/or observation so as to minimize disruption on instruction.
