902.4 Live Broadcast or Recording

Code No. 902.4

LIVE BROADCAST OR DIGITAL RECORDING OF SCHOOL DISTRICT EVENTS

Individuals may broadcast or digital record public school district events, including open board meetings, as long as it does not interfere with, or disrupt, the school district event and it does not create an undue burden in adapting the buildings and sites to accommodate the request.

It is within the discretion of the superintendent to determine whether the request is unduly burdensome and whether the broadcast or digital recording will interfere with or disrupt the school district event.

Digital recording of classroom activities will be allowed at the discretion of the superintendent. Parents will be notified prior to digital recording of classroom activities.

It shall be the responsibility of the superintendent to develop administrative regulations outlining the procedures for making the request and the rules for operation if the request is granted.
