This includes evidence of a minimum of $1,000,000 public liability insurance, vehicle registration and driver’s license.

3. Spectators will not be allowed transportation of buses with the participants unless they are serving in an official capacity, such as supervisor, referee, etc.

LOCKS AND LOCKERS

Lockers will be available for student use with a damage deposit of $10.00, payable to the school, refundable only if the locker is found to be in pristine condition at the end of the school year. Locks to be used can be purchased at the office or can be brought from home, but all combinations must be registered at the office. A key lock can also be used if a spare key is turned in for safe keeping at the office.

INFIRMARY

Students who are ill will be allowed to lie down in the infirmary after having gained permission from their teacher (grade 1 to 6) or from the office (grade 7 to 12). In any case, the student should report to the office before phoning home for someone to pick them up. The principal will be notified so that proper attention can be provided.

When necessary, the secretary or the principal will phone home if it is considered that the child requires further medical attention or that the child would be more comfortable at home.

SCHOOL ACCIDENT POLICY

In the event of any accident, the supervising teacher is to be informed, and it is his/her responsibility to make an immediate assessment of the situation. In the event of a serious accident, the principal shall be notified. He will then, if necessary or possible, administer any first aid or call on the person most qualified to do so. Any injury shall be reported to the office and an accident report will be filed, with parents being notified by phone as soon as possible.

Volunteers

Eaglesham School recognizes the value and efforts of volunteers at our school. The following is a guideline and policy for volunteers at Eaglesham School.

Upon arrival at school volunteers are to check in with the office and sign a volunteer sheet. The purpose of this is two fold: First, it provides Central Office with a comprehensive list of volunteer numbers and secondly it lets the school know who is in the building at any given time.

Eaglesham School believes that safety and security of students, staff and issues regarding them are strictly confidential. As professionals we must follow a code of conduct which guarantees confidentiality – we believe that volunteers are privy to all issues and are thus asked to follow confidentiality rules.

Rules and Guidelines for Confidentiality

	Volunteers, by the nature of the position, are privy to a variety of confidential matters in regards to the school, the staff, the students and their families. Confidential matters are not to be discussed outside the circle of stakeholders.
	All schools in Alberta are governed by FOIPP legislation (Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy).
	Parental inquiries should be discussed between the teacher and the teaching assistant and should be addressed by the teacher, unless otherwise specified. Parents should be asked to direct their calls to the teacher or administration.

Conduct of Volunteers

	The Volunteer will respect the dignity and rights of all persons without prejudice as to race, religious beliefs, color, sex, physical characteristics or age.
	Criticisms or concerns of staff, students, parents or policies must follow proper protocol.

VOLUNTEERS WHO DISREGARD CONFIDENTIALITY WILL NO LONGER BE WELCOMED AT EAGLESHAM SCHOOL IN THIS CAPACITY.
