PROCEDURES
All School volunteers must complete the background check through the school's parent liason.
Visitor/ Volunteer Tracking in 728 Buildings
ISD 728 uses Navigate 360’s Visitor Management System at all schools. This system will help build on the district’s campus safety efforts by better allowing us to track visitors in our schools and provide a consistent way to aid in keeping away people who may present a danger to our students and staff. We want to share some information with you about the Visitor Management System and what you can expect when you visit.
Upon being let into the school, all visitors will be asked to scan a government-issued ID at a kiosk in the front office. The system will capture the visitor's name, date of birth, and photo. Visitors will select the reason and specific location of their visit and see the front office staff for a wearable badge prior to entering the building.
Thank you, in advance, for your understanding and support of enhancing school safety protocols in our district.
Please contact the parent liason to register as a volunteer with TLES : Kaitlyn -kaitlyn.yorkovich@isd728.org
