Campus Access:
● An ISB ID is now required for entrance on campus. Visitors and individuals without an ISB ID and lanyard will be asked to go to the Security Desk in front of the Admin Building and obtain an ISB visitor ID/Lanyard. Visitor IDs are given by exchanging a personal ID. Personal IDs will be returned back to individuals at the end of their visit when they return the visitor ID back to the security desk. Individuals without an ISB ID or Visitor ID will not be allowed to enter the campus, unless cleared by an ISB administrator. Individuals still needing an ISB ID and Lanyard should go to the ID Production room at the back of the Chevron Theater.
● Lanyards – The color of a lanyard represents different user groups.
○ Red = ISB Faculty and Staff
○ Green = Parents
○ Epicure, Montri, ISAT staff
○ Yellow = Family Drivers, Mae Bahns and Nannies
○ Pink = Visitors
● The ISB ID and Lanyard must be worn while on campus. The only exception is for participation in athletic activities or activities where there is a direct safety concern. ISB Security Guards, administrators and faculty will gently remind adults not wearing their ID and lanyard to put them on while on campus. Lanyards with ID must be worn around the neck and clearly visible on the front of body.
● Former ISB parents or alumni should contact our Marketing Director, Tony Arnold, to ascertain whether or not an ISB ID can be issued. Short term visitors (i.e. grandparents here for a month) should contact our Headmistress, Usa Somboon.
● Parents and visitors who have questions should seek out individuals in red lanyards. Red lanyards represent ISB faculty and staff who can assist with directions or other campus related questions.
● Vehicles – All vehicles must obtain and display a yellow ISB Vehicle Sticker for the 2015-16 school year. Stickers can be attained at the ID Production room on the backside of Chevron Theater. Vehicles without stickers will need to register with the security guards at the main gate for a visitor vehicle card.
● NO DOUBLE PARKING IN PARKING LOT and ROADWAYS (this includes golf carts)! Double parking causes safety issues for emergency vehicles and pedestrians. Vehicles double parked will be moved by our security guards.
● Family Drivers – All family drivers must have an ISB ID Card and Yellow Lanyard. We do not have parking space or facilities near the front of the school for drivers to park or wait for pick-ups. Drivers who arrive early, will be directed by ISB security guards to park in the back of the main parking lot near the ISB and Montri Transportation offices. Family drivers have not been cleared to enter past our security entrance points. Drivers who need restrooms should use those provided by the transportation office.
Campus Safety
● Evacuation and Severe Weather Alerts
○ Emergency Evacuation – Should the emergency evacuation alarm go on while on campus, follow signage to one our evacuation meeting/gathering points. Wait for a signal from an ISB administrator before going back into buildings.
○ Lightning and Severe Weather – ISB uses a siren and strobe light alarm system for detection of lightning in the area. Should the lighting alarms go off, all individuals should take indoor cover and remain off all fields, playgrounds, swimming pools, parking lots and other open spaces until an all clear signal is given.
● Snakes – The habitat in the Nichada area is home to several reptiles, including several varieties of snakes (some of which are poisonous). If you see a snake on campus or in Nichada Thani, please alert ISB or Nichada Thani Security who are trained and have the right equipment for safely managing the situation. Do not try to capture the snake on your own.
