1320: Public Performance by Students
1320: Public Performance by Students holly Wed, 06/26/2019 - 14:33The District recognizes the value of students sharing their talents and skills with the community through participation in public events when they constitute a learning experience and do not interfere with the scheduled educational programs.
It shall be the obligation of the community organization, or their rightful representative, to make arrangements through the building principal for a student or group of students whom the organization wishes to have appear on any program, or any other such public performance, as a representative of the school. Such participation shall be only in activities which will enrich or supplement the educational program, and which are minimal in loss of school time for the value received.
In determining such student participation, the building principal will give careful consideration to the extent of the students’ participation and type of performance in which they will appear before granting permission for absence from school.
