Photos and video footage of students add significantly to the communication value of district and school publications, television productions, and web sites. It is the district's desire to share the achievements and recognitions earned by students with the broader community. This effort can be aided by the use of photos or video footage showing students involved in the classroom and school-related activities.

Photos & Video

Unless notified in writing of an objection by a parent, legal guardian, or student of age 18, photographs and video footage of students and/or names may be posted in district-produced materials including printed publications, television productions, and web sites.

If parents do not wish photographs or videos of their student to be used in these materials, they should complete a Photo/Video Opt-Out form available at school offices or via the link below. Please be aware that opt-out requests are valid for the current school year and must be renewed at the start of the next school year.

Photos & Video - Special Education Students

School and District staff will always seek parent/guardian permission before using a photo which identifies a student receiving special education services. Permission forms for these situations can also be obtained from school offices or via the link below.

Please contact your school office or the Communication Office at 979-8281 if you have any questions about this policy.
