The Board of Education believes that radio or television coverage of school events can be beneficial to the District by focusing public attention on school events of interest to the community.

The Board authorizes the Superintendent to approve media coverage of school events that does not interfere with such events as planned and presents factual, objective coverage thereof.

The Superintendent shall report all media coverage to the Board at its next meeting. Should a fee be offered to the District to cover an event, the Superintendent shall report that fact to the Board for approval and proposed distribution.

The Board, in the case of an interscholastic contest, may choose to share the fee with the opposing team, but it is not obligated to do so by the terms of this policy.
