Visitors Policy

PLEASE SET A POSITIVE EXAMPLE FOR OUR STUDENTS.

Visitors are welcome to the Pioneer Central School facilities to observe the work of students, teachers and other staff or for other school related meetings. However, limits have been set for such visits.The building principal is responsible for all persons in the buildings or on the grounds.

  1. All visitors must sign in at the greeter’s desk upon arrival at the school, and obtain the proper guest pass.

  2. Visitors attending school functions that are open to the public, such as open house and parent conferences, are not required to register.

  3. Parents or citizens wishing to observe a classroom while school is in session must arrange the visit in advance with the classroom teacher.

  4. Teachers are not expected to take class time to discuss individual matters with visitors.

  5. Any unauthorized person on school property will be reported to the principal and will be asked to leave. If the situation warrants, the police will be summoned.
