  • SCHOOL ID BADGES REQUIRED:

    ALL students, staff, approved guests, and substitutes will be required to wear a school-issued ID each day when on school property.  Anyone without an ID will not be permitted inside our schools.  

    FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL PROCEDURE:

    Middle and high school students will receive a temporary ID on the first day of school in homeroom. Permanent IDs will be provided following school picture days, which will occur later in the fall.

    Elementary students will be mailed a name tag in their “Welcome Back to School” informational mailing in late August. Students will then receive their permanent ID tag that will be connected to their book bag on the first day of school. Please leave this tag connected to your child’s bookbag for the entire year, as it will assist in the dismissal process each day.

    ALL students will be required to wear their IDs starting on day 1 of school, September, 8th. This visual identifier will help school staff quickly know who has been approved to be inside our schools as well as on our school property. Bus drivers will also require these IDs to properly identify students on their bus.

  • WHY ARE HOODIES AND HATS NOT PERMITTED TO BE WORN IN SCHOOL?

    Although fashionable, items covering one's head - such as hoodies and hats - have the potential to obscure part of a person’s face and identity. It is for this reason the Lindenwold School District will request our students and guests not to wear hoodies or hats on their heads during the school day. Covering one's face makes it more difficult to identify an individual in an emergency situation.

    In addition, it is the school's responsibility to ensure our students are safe: socially, emotionally and physically, while on our school property.  Hoodies and hats provide an additional means to conceal unsafe and unwanted items.  It is best to avoid this specific fashion trend during the school day to enhance school district safety procedures for all.

    Note: There may be designated spirit days when head coverings may be permitted to be worn on one's head.  If a Principal's approved spirit day guidance includes head wear, this information will be communicated to our staff and student body.
