2007 - 2008 School Year

5. When volunteering in the classroom, parents are expected to adhere to the Ethics Code of Confidentiality. This means observations of other children in class are expected to remain confidential. Please communicate to other parents that they are expected to act responsibly and respect the privacy rights of all children.
