The Peninsula
School District attempts to relay information, to our staff, students and their
families, about the variety of local services and activities available,
under the following guidelines:
¨
When an
agency requests permission to distribute, they must submit a copy of the
flyer* and a completed
Request to Distribute Materials
form. Contact is made with the office of Assistant Superintendent for P-12
Education Programs, by fax: (253) 530-1010; or email
Katy Ellis
-
Submissions for
Wednesday & Thursday take-home envelopes at the elementary schools must
be received by the Thursday afternoon of the week before.
-
All out-of-district submissions must include the following
disclaimer:
Peninsula School District does not sponsor / endorse
the activity and / or information contained in this flyer.
The PSD assumes no responsibility for conduct or
safety during the activity/event.
In consideration for the privilege to distribute these materials, the
PSD shall be held harmless from
any cause of action, claim or petition filed in any court or
administrative tribunal, arising out of distribution of these materials,
including all costs, attorney’s fees, judgments or awards.
¨
With public access to local advertising
mediums, such as newspapers, bulletin boards, internet websites, etc., the
Peninsula School District will limit their student distributions to
communications from Non-Profit agencies/organizations. Non-Profit Identity
Numbers shall be included on each flyer, i.e., 501c.
¨
At no time can district staff time,
office equipment or materials be used in the dissemination of this
information, as the district can not contribute such a gift of public
funds.
-
Materials must be delivered bundled appropriately for
school or classroom distribution per the
Distribution Instructions
-
Cut & Paste quality announcements for school newsletters
may be
submitted via email;
Inclusion will be at the discretion of
the principal, if space allows
-
The principal at each
school will be given the final authority for distribution.
-
Deliveries of materials
can be made directly to the school or to the district office, for the
district courier to disseminate. Large boxes of materials, i.e.,
catalogs, require special delivery permission/instructions and may need
to be taken to the district warehouse and may take more time to be
delivered, due to limited space in the courier van.
¨
Parent
volunteers at the elementary schools will place flyers in students’
take-home folders or envelopes; at the middle and high school levels, copies
of the flyers can be posted in the Community Information area or on the
office counter, after permission has been granted by the building principal.
¨
Staff
information, such as trainings or special offers, may be submitted in the
same manner as above. Click on this link for
Distribution Instructions
The local business community make donations and support our schools in many
ways and occasionally request permission to distribute their catalogs to
staff. Gig Harbor businesses, ONLY, may distribute up to 5 catalogs
per building, using the same manner as above, bundled and labeled as
follows: Principal, Athletics, ASB, Staff Room and/or PTA. Other
businesses are permitted to mail a catalog to a specific staff person they
may have done business with in the past, but they must arrive by US Mail,
UPS, etc.
*Please note: Flyers or handouts will NOT be approved for, nor will they be
distributed to, students
during the first and last 2 weeks of the school year.
This is due to the large quantity of district materials being sent home,
many requiring parent response. |
