We are excited for the sports seasons and after-school activities to be underway. Lancaster County School District places safety for students, staff, and community members as a priority. Please join us in keeping our campuses and facilities safe. First and foremost, we expect every visitor to our activities to be respectful toward the athletes, thespians, band members, staff, administrators, other guests, and law enforcement partners working at our events. All guests to our district events are required to adhere to our Clear Bag Policy. When guests come to our facilities, they will not be permitted into the activities with any bag other than a clear bag. The bags also may not be larger than 12 by 12 inches and 6 inches deep. For more information. click on the Clear Bag Policy. Weapons are not permitted on school property – including during sporting events, forums, and arts performances - unless you are a sworn law enforcement officer permitted to carry with proper identification. Our Safety and Security team will be working entrances to many of our events to screen guests for weapons. Entry to District Events This year we have revised our entry guidelines for school events to promote a safer environment for our community. Anyone under the age of 18 not currently enrolled in school must be accompanied by a parent, guardian or responsible adult. Elementary and middle school students must have an adult accompany them at events. No elementary and middle school students will be permitted to stay unaccompanied. Guests to our events will not be allowed to stand, congregate, or “hang out” in the concourse or around the concession stand areas during events. Any violation of rules may result in removal or being trespassed. Our safety and security team will continue collaborating with the Lancaster Police Department and Lancaster County Sheriff’s Office to ensure everyone can feel comfortable and safe in our facilities. *This applies to all events open to the public. This does not apply to internal school events that are not open to the public such as prom, dances, club/organization activities Updated 9/11/24
