Visitors' Policies
(Taken from the Student Parent Handbook - updated January 2009)
Dear Guests,
Students may be permitted to bring a guest to school for one day only, providing it is not during exam week. Prior approval is required and can be secured from the Principal by bringing a note from parents a day before the visit. The conditions for approval of a student guest are as follows: First, the parents of the ACS Athens student must write a letter to the Principal asking for permission for their child to bring a student guest.
This letter should be written at least one day prior to the guest's arrival on campus and should state the reason why the ACS Athens student would like to have a guest on campus for that day. It is suggested that the reason for the visit be educationally appropriate.
The visiting guest must respect the educational environment and not distract the other students, teachers or the academic program.
Each request will be carefully reviewed by each Principal and a decision will be made based on what is best for the student body as a whole. Unfortunately, same day requests will not be approved.
Parents and other adults are welcome to visit the school at any time. Please call the Academy Principal at 639-3200, Ext. 222 to schedule an appointment.
