Updated Skateboarding Policy

Recently we have found the need to address the issue of skateboarding in the community and on school property. We have shared this policy with our students who skateboard, so they are aware of the rules and expectations.

Please see the details below. If there are any questions please let us know.

1) Skateboards can be used as a mode of transportation to and from school, but students are not to stop on streets, in parking lots or parks in the community to skateboard in one particular area and hang out.

2) Skateboarding is also not permitted on the walkways in front of the school, the public sidewalks out front of the school or across the street.

3) There will be a designated area provided in behind the school for skateboarding that students can use before school, at lunch & after school. This area will be marked by pylons at lunch. Students wishing to skateboard in the designated area must have a completed permission form (pick up from the office) and will be issued a shoe tag so that staff know they have permission.

4) If students are skateboarding in areas that they should not be, a staff member will take the skateboard to the office. The student will be able to pick up the skateboard at the end of the day.

5) Should this happen a second time, a parent will have to come to the office to pick-up the skateboard.

6) Should the issue persist, a parent meeting will occur and the student may lose their skateboarding privileges.
