Security Camera Access Policy

Purpose of the System ~

1. To provide additional safety for the students of Pinnacle Peak Elementary in the rear of the building.  

Three cameras will be focused on the park boundary, the basketball courts, the play structure, and the field.

2. To dissuade vandalism or other improper actions from occurring on the school grounds during non-school hours.

3. To provide a visual record of any incidents that may occur.

System Use:

1. Notification of the video surveillance system will be posted in clear view, in multiple locations on campus.

2. Only the school principal and his administrative assistant shall have consistent access to view footage captured by the system.

3.  Local law-enforcement have the right to view footage upon request to aid in an investigation.

4.  Teachers and other certificated staff (such as the school nurse or psychologist) will be able to view footage only in the presence of the principal and for the purpose of assisting the students with whom they work.

5.  Parents may not view recorded images without the written consent of the parents/guardians of all students represented in the footage.  Such an occurrence is to be avoided and only used if a verbal description of events from the principal is insufficient.  The principal shall decide when such a scenario would be necessary.

6.  Classified employees, such as duty aides, may only view footage in the presence of the principal.  Further, the reason for such a viewing must be directly related to their job performance (such as the principal using the footage to analyze and discuss the aide's response to an event).

7.  All staff members who view footage are prohibited from discussing the specific actions of students with anyone but the parents of those students.
