PLAYGROUND SUPERVISOR VOLUNTEER RULES
Upon arrival at school, please check-in at the School Office. All volunteers are required to register in the office and wear a school-issued name tag and safety vest. Once checked in volunteers will report to one of the playground supervisors.

Playground supervisors will assign you to a specific area for monitoring. Please walk around and observe your area. We ask that you do not sit and chat with other supervisors.

Please do not use your cell phone unless it is to call the school office to report a student injury or a student being sent in for disciplinary reasons.

If you are unable to attend on the day you sign up, please cancel your volunteer spot on the iVolunteer website. (This will notify the office that you will not be volunteering.)

Students must stay outside the entire recess time. No in and out of school building. A student must have permission from the supervisor to go back inside the building. Restroom needs should be fulfilled following lunch and before going out to the playground.

The playground supervisor of the day will be the primary enforcer of the rules and also has the authority to remove any student who does not comply.

INDOOR RECESS
***All of the outdoor rules apply that might occur indoors.***

Parent playground volunteers will patrol the hallway outside the ‘recess active’ classroom(s). They will alternate checking each room for behavior.

Parent volunteers will supervise the students in the classrooms. Students will have quiet, normal talking voice with allowed activities as pre-set by the classroom teachers.

No running, climbing on furniture, or yelling will be allowed. Classroom doors are to remain open!

Students will not be allowed to leave classroom without permission during recess.

Excessive classroom problems will be dealt with by a time-out, heads down and quiet with limited activity at their desks.

Individual students may be sent to the office as needed for inappropriate behavior.
