E.  SCHOOL FACILITIES

(1) ANIMALS AT SCHOOL

Parents and visitors are not permitted to bring animals into school buildings except at the specific request of a teacher.  The principal must approve and the nurse and parents notified about the pending animal visit.  

Proof of vaccination (of any animal susceptible to rabies) must be presented to the classroom teacher before the animal’s visit.  Animals may not be transported on school buses with the exception of animals certified to assist persons with disabilities.  

Animals Prohibited From School:
  • Wild Animals
  • Domestic stray animals
  • Bats
  • Birds (unless certified as psittacosis-free)
  • Reptiles and amphibians
  • Chicks and ducks
  • Poisonous animals such as spiders, venomous insects and poisonous snakes, reptiles and lizards
  • Dead animals (unless properly preserved as a dissection specimen)
(2)CARS AND PARKING

Please, be mindful of children at all times when driving through the parking area, especially at the end of the day when arriving to pick up children. Cars must not block walkways and driveways. Unattended vehicles may not be left running. All cars must heed school bus warning lights.

(3)PLAYGROUND

Parents should be aware that there is no supervision on the playground after school. Students must leave school grounds after dismissal unless supervised by an adult. They may return to the playground on their own after 3:15. However, children should know that in case of emergencies, such as if they are hurt or threatened, they may come into the building for help. They may not come into the building for drinks, casual use of the phone, or the bathroom.

The playground is open to the community during non-school hours. Children who are not CAES students may use the playground during school hours only if supervised by a parent.

Children and adults using the playground are asked to respect all property and to use the various facilities for their intended purposes.  Language and actions should be responsible and respectful.  Trash should be picked up and thrown away.  The school grounds are closed after dark.

PLAYGROUND AND ALL SCHOOL PREMISES ARE
SMOKE AND DRUG FREE ZONES.



(4)USE OF SCHOOL FACILITIES

It is the policy of the School Board to make facilities and equipment available for use by the public, as long as such use does not interfere with school activities. Applications for use of school facilities or equipment are available in the school office.
 
A calendar of all school and community events held at CAES is maintained by the school office and posted on our school website’s Community Calendar.  If you are scheduling an event, please contact the school office.

(5)VANDALISM

In order to maintain the beauty and safety of our school, we take a strong position regarding prosecution of known vandals.  Official police complaints will be signed where known violators have been identified and previously warned.  We look to you and your usual cooperation to help keep our school beautiful and safe day and night.
