Policy 6550
Management Support
VIDEO SURVEILLANCE ON SCHOOL GROUNDS OR PROPERTY
The Riverview School District is committed to nurturing a safe, caring and positive
environment. Consequently, the health, safety and well-being of students and staff while
on district property and attending district functions and the protection of district property
are important functions of the School District. The monitoring of individuals who enter
upon the school grounds or school property is a significant factor in maintaining order
and discipline and in protecting students, staff, and visitors on District property.
The Riverview School District recognizes the value of video surveillance systems and
monitoring activity on school property or on school grounds, and its use in the
maintenance of order and discipline within the school setting. Accordingly, the Board
authorizes the use of video surveillance practices, in accordance with the established
procedures (P6550-1). It is anticipated that this policy will encourage individuals to
demonstrate respect for themselves, others and their surroundings.
