An exception to this policy may be granted in writing by the Superintendent or Superintendent’s designee, in his or her sole discretion, to law enforcement, public safety agencies, media, or other entities or individuals.  Such exceptions would be required to sign an agreement with the District.  All photos/videos taken will become the sole property of the District.  All operators will be required to comply with applicable local, state and federal laws.

This prohibition applies to all school owned premises, including but not limited to, the area above and upon all spectator areas, fields of play, courts, arenas, stadiums, mats, gym floor or pool, practice facilities, parking areas, and includes a ban on the entire facility or property being used as part of the event.

For purposes of this policy, a UAS is any unmanned airborne device or aircraft.  The District reserves the right to refuse admission to anyone possessing, operating, or attempting to operate a UAS or to request the immediate removal of any person using or attempting to use a UAS in violation of this policy.
