Political Figures in the School
The Amity School Board will support the participation of major political figures in a variety of school events. Such events include, but are not limited to, building dedications, awards assemblies, commencement and curricular innovations such as a mock convention.
If such event should occur during a campaign year, the candidate would be expected to refrain from using issues/materials related to that campaign.
Political candidates may be allowed to speak to classes or clubs during the school day if, in the judgment of the administration, the presentation is a desirable supplement to the instructional program. If such presentation is permitted, any other candidate who has filed for the same office will, upon request, be allowed equal time.
Each candidate, whether or not the incumbent, will be expected to adhere to the rules and procedures established for outside resource persons/controversial speakers.
