“Safety First” for our Schools
Cambridge Public Schools has a Visitor’s Policy to ensure the safety of our students and staff.
The visitor’s policy has many purposes.
- To enhance the safety of students and staff while maintaining a welcoming environment
- To easily identify visitors, volunteers and parents.
- To assist administrators, school staff, Safety personnel and police in identifying trespassers.
- To provide administration with the names of people in the school in the event of a school emergency.
Procedure: Every visitor entering a Cambridge Public School during school hours is required to check in at the Safety Desk/ Main Office at the Main Entrance. After signing in (print name), stating whom they wish to visit, the purpose of their visit, and showing proof of identity, a visitor’s pass will be issued.
All visitors will be asked to wear the visitor’s pass while they are in the building and return the pass and sign out when they leave.
Circumstances may warrant someone walking visitors to their destination.
