Campus Access (Public)
Campuses should have single ingress and egress points to the extent that is consistent with
this level’s criteria of minimal cost. (If cost is significant then it should be considered later in
the hardening process).
Interior access should be limited by co-locating Attendance, Guidance, Main Office and
other public business offices. (many schools have these functions spread throughout
multiple locations on campus)
Clear signs should direct visitors to appropriate entry points. All entry/exit doors should
indicate a closed campus and direct visitors to report to the front office.
Install a door alert or notification system to the main entry for visitor control. Non-essential
visitors should be limited and when allowing visitors they should be required to show
positive identification, state their purpose for entering the school, be issued a visitor badge
and, when appropriate, have a staff escort during the entire time the person is inside the
school.
Visitor management. All campus perimeter ingress and egress points shall be staffed when
opened for student arrival and dismissal.
Each school should have a written campus access policy that is distributed to all personnel.
Staff members should be trained to challenge, if appropriate, or report anyone unauthorized
to be on campus or any vehicle not parked in an authorized area.
