St. Peter School Visitor’s Procedure - 2023-2024

Parents are encouraged to complete any school business electronically as we try to limit office visits to essential business.  If you have questions about school-related issues, please contact Ms. Martinez or Mrs. Rodriguez by calling the school office at 203 - 748-2895. Our office staff will be available to answer your phone calls and your questions. However, if necessary, you may schedule an appointment for an in-person office visit or simply drop by the school office.  The principal has the authority to make decisions about all visitors to the school.

Please be aware we will follow the guidelines listed below to provide a safe working environment for our employees:

Adults:

• All visitors must enter via the main entrance and sign in at the front door.
• All visitors to our school offices must remain in the front office areas unless authorized by the principal. 
•  It is extremely important that you do NOT come to our school or office if you are sick.  Please do not place our school employees at risk. 
• Visitors attending school functions that are open to the public, such as parent-teacher organization meetings or public gatherings, are not required to sign in at the main office.
• Any unauthorized person on school property will be reported to the Principal or his or her designee. Unauthorized or disorderly persons will be asked to leave. The police may be called if the situation warrants.
• All visitors are expected to abide by the rules for public conduct on school property contained in this code of conduct; and any additional rules or regulations imposed from time to time in connection with emergencies declared by local and/or state authorities.

Staff:

• Students and staff are asked not to open doors for any person at a doorway or prop doors open at any time.
• School employees who are expecting a visitor, including  a parent/guardian/former student, must notify the main office staff ahead of the visit.
• Former students may only visit teachers or other faculty members after the buses have left and there are no students (other than those in After Care) in the building.  The office staff must be informed if there are former students in the building.  They must enter through the front door.
