PERSONNEL

In the interest of efficiency and economy of time it is requested that school telephones throughout the system be answered by giving the name of the building, office, and/or the person speaking.

It is essential that someone be in attendance at school telephones at all times so that the building may always be contacted when necessary. In addition, the cooperation of the entire personnel is solicited in the utilization of the telephone only when absolutely necessary and the limitation of each essential call to the shortest possible time.

When an emergency makes it necessary for a child to use the telephone, permission must be obtained from his/her teacher to do so. Neither teachers nor children are called to the telephone during schools hours except in cases of emergency.

Personal long distance calls may not be made on school telephones unless they are charged to a personal credit card.
