Visitors to School
Parents/legal guardians of students and prospective students are encouraged to visit the schools as long as such visits do not disrupt school operations or interfere with the educational process. Parents shall have reasonable access to observe classes, activities, and functions at the school upon advance notice to, and authorization by, the building principal or designee. Authorization shall be given to parents of enrolled pupils and parents who wish to enroll their children at Pima Rose Academy unless their visit, tour, or classroom observation threatens the health and safety of Pima Rose Academy pupils and staff. This authorization may be revoked at any time for violations of Pima Rose Academy policy or state or federal law. Visitors to Pima Rose Academy may not take photographs, video recordings, or audio recordings during their visit without the express prior permission of the building principal or designee.
To ensure that no unauthorized persons enter buildings and that the educational process or other school operations are not disrupted, all visitors to the school shall report to the front desk when entering, must sign in at the front desk, and must receive authorization before visiting other parts of the campus.
Visitors whose purpose is to influence or solicit students shall not be permitted on the school grounds unless the principal or designee has determined that the visit furthers the educational program of Pima Rose Academy or the career or educational aspirations of the students.
To promote the general health, welfare, and wellbeing of all who enter school property, and pursuant to state law, smoking, chewing, or any use of tobacco products by staff, students, or visitors is prohibited on all school property. No visitor shall carry or possess a weapon, explosive device, knife (with a blade of 2 ½ inches or more) or any other dangerous or illegal instrument on school premises unless he/she is a peace officer or has obtained specific authorization from the Superintendent. Persons violating the criminal law by using, selling, or distributing any controlled substance on school grounds, or within 1,000 feet of the perimeter of the school grounds shall be subject to enhanced criminal penalties.
Pima Rose Academy prohibits all registered sex offenders from school property and attending any school sponsored activity or event.
Pima Rose Academy employees, vendors, and contractors visiting the school site must check in with the front desk when arriving.
Unauthorized persons shall not loiter on school property at any time. All school employees are expected to help enforce the loitering rule and state law that prohibits loitering and interfering with normal school activities by informing the administration of suspected loitering. Law enforcement shall be called if persons violating this policy refuse to comply.
School Safety Reporting
The purpose of this school safety reporting policy is to generally set forth the principles by which the Rose Academies respond to threats against the schools and their students, employees, and volunteers. Given the sensitivity of the subject matter addressed by this policy, this is intentionally a non-exhaustive consideration of the schools’ safety protocols; therefore, this policy supplements but does not replace any other safety protocols or applicable state or Federal laws governing the schools’ obligation to maintain a safe learning environment.
The Superintendent or their designee will report to local law enforcement any suspected crime against a person or property that: 1.) is a serious offense or involves a deadly weapon or dangerous instrument or serious physical injury, or, 2.) any conduct that poses a threat of death or serious physical injury to a school employee, student, or other person on school property. All bolded terms in this paragraph are defined in A.R.S. § 15-153 and HB2119.
In accordance with applicable state and Federal law, including FERPA, the Superintendent or their designee will notify the parent or guardian of each student who is involved in suspected criminal conduct. School personnel are expected to report and document any suspected criminal conduct by immediately notifying a member of the school’s administration of the incident and promptly preparing a written report of the incident and providing the report to a member of the school administration. The schools may, at the discretion of their administrators, discipline any school employee who the school administration believes failed to properly report and document suspected criminal conduct. The involved school will maintain a record of such disciplinary action. In accordance with applicable law, the involved school will, upon reasonable request, make the relevant disciplinary record available to a public school considering hiring the involved employee.
In accordance with applicable state law, if school administration determines a student has been harassed, threatened, or intimidated on school grounds or in a manner that substantially disrupts the school’s learning environments, the school administration will promptly notify the parent or guardian of the impacted student. Threatening or intimidating behavior and harassment are defined as set forth in A.R.S. § 15-186.01.
