Following yesterday’s post on this topic, there was some confusion for which we apologize. Please see below for greater clarification.

In an effort to maintain the unique open campus feel of ISB, along with improving the overall safeguarding of students, employees, parents and property, we are implementing the following guidelines regarding access to the campus:

Campus Use and Access:

  • The campus will be open to the community from 6.40am to 8.00pm each day.
  • Students and community members may enter the school via the front main gate and via the back Sarawanville pedestrian gate.
  • Visitors may only use the front main gate – not the Sarawanville pedestrian gate.
  • During the weekends, once inside the access gates, there will be one entrance to the school to the right of the zigzag path next to the administration office. All other internal access points will be closed for increased security and efficient use of the security team.
  • Adults must present ID to enter campus at all times.
  • Access times will be adjusted for events that run before and after normal opening hours. For example, events that run past 8:00pm, the campus closing time will be adjusted to 30 minutes after the scheduled end of the event.
  • For students and adults that need to cross the campus to get to and from Nichada and Sarawanville, they will continue to be allowed access, with ISB ID, up to 9:30pm (this is current practice).
  • All buildings on campus will be secured at 6:00pm (or immediately after the event concludes) and access will only be granted to those personnel assigned to the space. Buildings will be opened at 5:00am on schools days for ISB staff access. No student or parent will be allowed to access classrooms, offices, or other teaching spaces without the assigned staff member present.

Supervision:

  • Any Elementary and Middle school student on campus outside of regular school hours, who is not participating in a school supported event (taking part or supporting), must be supervised by an adult. For Middle School students this time begins at 3:50pm. High School students are provided more flexibility and are allowed on campus without an adult. Please refer to the division handbooks more specifics guidelines.
  • Elementary students are supervised by ISB staff from 7:00am – 2:20pm on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, and 7:00am – 2:05pm on Tuesdays.
