Policies and Notices

The Board of Education recognizes its responsibility to protect the health of students and employees from the risks posed by communicable diseases. View Parkway's policy that addresses immunization, universal precautions, and other disease outbreak control measures.

It is the policy of the Parkway School District not to discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, ancestry, religion, sex, disability, age, genetic information, or any other characteristic protected by law in its programs, activities or employment practices.

When a student enrolls for the first time, two cumulative records, education and health, shall be created and shall be maintained in the school until the student is withdrawn from enrollment.

These are assessments that happen after instruction to determine if learning occurred. They are used to make statements of student learning status at a point in time, such as when making student referrals or making decisions about programs.

The Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment governs the administration of surveys, analyses, or evaluations to students, as well as marketing surveys and other areas of student privacy, parental access to information, opportunity to opt out and the administration of certain physical examinations to minors.

Eligible students between the ages of three (3) and twenty-one (21) are entitled to/guaranteed a free appropriate public education and procedural safeguards/protections.

The Board of Education believes daily attendance is the initial step in achieving academic success. Education is a total process based on continual communication and shared responsibilities among parents, students, teachers, and the school.

In alignment with Parkway’s Mission and Vision, staff and students work proactively to encourage and develop responsible student behavior through instruction and practice.

Our district is required to inform you of certain information that you, according to The No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (Public Law 107-110), have the right to know.

Title IX

The Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) has developed a new website that outlines the Trauma-Informed Schools Initiative.

In an effort to promote the health, safety and welfare of all students, staff and visitors, and to safeguard district facilities and equipment, the Board of Education authorizes the use of video cameras, monitoring equipment and other recording devices on district property and at other locations where district resources are being utilized.

Students have several options for accessing virtual learning through both Parkway and through the Missouri Course Access Program (MOCAP).
