The Board of Education will not tolerate the possession of weapons or any other device designed to inflict serious bodily harm by any visitor while on District property, at a school-sponsored event, or on a school vehicle.

Any visitor found possessing a weapon or other device designed to inflict serious bodily harm on District premises, a school vehicle, or on property being used by the District for school purposes may be charged with a felony. This restriction applies to visitors licensed to possess firearms unless serving as an authorized security officer.

The Superintendent shall ensure that any visitor possessing a weapon or other device designed to inflict serious bodily harm is reported immediately to the appropriate law enforcement agency.

A weapon may be brought on District property for educational purposes under controlled circumstances when authorized by the Superintendent.

Exceptions to this policy include weapons under the control of law enforcement personnel.
