SUPERVISION OF STUDENTS
The Evansville Community School District Board of Education expects all students to be under assigned adult supervision at all times when they are in school, on school grounds, traveling under school auspices or engaging in school-sponsored activities. School personnel assigned to their supervision serve in loco parentis. School personnel assigned this supervision are expected to act as reasonably prudent adults in providing for the safety of the students in their charge.
In keeping with this expected prudence, no teacher or other staff member shall leave their assigned group unsupervised except when an arrangement has been made to take care of an emergency.
When students are in school, engaging in school-sponsored activities or traveling to and from school on school buses, they are responsible to the school and the school is responsible for them.
During school hours, or while engaging in school-sponsored activities, students shall be released only into the custody of parents or other authorized persons.
