Exceptions: Volunteers do not need to complete a fingerprint check if they are escorted and under the supervision of a PGCPS employee at all times while on campus for a one-time event, such as career day, book fairs, school dances, etc. Please see the next section for more information on Visitors.

Visitors

All visitors must check in at the front office through our Raptor system with photo identification. Once you have checked in, a visitor’s badge will be printed for you. This badge must be worn at all times while you are in the building.
