School Visitors

Thompson Valley’s primary focus is the education of our current students.  Visitors tend to distract us from our primary purpose.  Please refrain from bringing or requesting permission for student visitors to attend school with you.

Visitors must ultimately be approved by the principal two weeks  in advance through the main office.  For safety and security reasons, unapproved visitors will be asked to leave campus immediately.  Any pre-arranged visitor may visit only once during a school year.  No visitors will be allowed during the last two weeks of any semester or any week in which a final exam is administered.  Any student visitor must be enrolled in grades 9 – 12 at a high school other than a Thompson R2J high school.  In other words, Thompson School District students may not be visitors at Thompson Valley High School.    

Procedure for former students and alumni TVHS campus visits:
•    Visitor must make an appointment with the staff member they want to see
•    Appointments must be during the teacher’s planning period - not during a class time
•    The staff host must inform the front desk of visitor name, date, and time prior to the visitor’s arrival
•    Visitor must sign in at the front desk and get a visitor badge
•    The host staff must meet the visitor at the front office and escort him/her through the building
•    The host staff must escort the visitor to the front office at the end of the visit
•    Visitors who do not leave campus immediately will be ticketed for trespassing
