The Board of Education believes that the flag of the United States is a symbol of the values of our nation, the ideals embedded in our Constitution and the spirit that should animate our district.
The district shall maintain a United States flag, flag staff and the necessary appliances for its display upon or near every school building. There shall be a flag on display in every assembly room of every school.
The flag shall be flown at full- or half-staff pursuant to law. In addition, the flag shall be flown at half-staff on Pearl Harbor Day and shall be flown at half-staff to commemorate the death of a present board member, present employee or present student.
Consistent with national and state law and regulations and this policy, the Superintendent of Schools shall develop rules and regulations for the proper custody, care and display of the flag.
