All District Badges and Passes, with the exception of Badges that have a photo, require a form before they can be issued out.
Badge/Pass/Key Issue Form
The form must be:
- Filled out by the individual assuming responsibility for that Badge/Pass (top part of the form)
- The person issuing the card, likely someone in the front office (left side of the form).
- The right side of the form is only filled out when the badge/pass is returned. (Filled out by the front office. This can be the same person who issued the badge/pass initially).
The individual receiving the badge is not permitted to lend, share, or duplicate their badge and must return it to the front office if they decide to leave the district, go on leave, or if their time with the district comes to an end. Students must turn in all passes before the end of the school year and are also not permitted to share their pass with other students.
Teachers assuming responsibility for student passes will sign them out at the front office using the form above and keep the passes secured at all times. Student Passes are used to allow a student temporary use/access to specific areas but the pass must be returned as soon as the student has finished their specific task/objective. The pass must then be resecured by the teacher until it is needed again.
At no time should the Student Passes be generally accessible in a classroom/portable, or handed over to a student long-term by a teacher, as this poses a security risk. If a student needs a student pass long-term they can sign one out from the front office.
If a new District Partner Badge or Student Pass is needed for an individual or student the front office will have them fill out and sign the Badge/Key Issue Form, and then a Ticket will need to be submitted via IIQ with a copy of the form attached. We recommend creating a filing system either physically or electronically to keep track of your original forms. Please make sure this file is shareable so that any new or incoming staff, who may need it in the future, are able to access it.
There is a space on the form that asks for the number of the Badge/Pass, you will likely not have this information until the card is created. Be sure to go back and fill in this information once the Badge/Pass has been sent to your site, or once that information is provided from the Technicians via the original ticket. You can also ask for this information if it is not given, via the comments section of the submitted Ticket.
