Policy 2910 – Student Publications

(Regulation 2910)
(Adopted – January 1998)

The Board of Education encourages student production and distribution of publications, which can provide opportunities for practical journalistic experience and for the written expression of differing opinions. The Board recognizes that freedom of speech and press bring corresponding responsibilities; therefore, in its inherent authority based on Missouri Public School Law, it designates the school principal as the Board’s representative. The principal, through appointment of a faculty advisor, shall provide guidance to students in appropriate methods for preparing and producing publications.

The building principal/designee may delay or stop distribution of any materials proposed for printing or that have been printed which may be reasonably forecast to cause substantial and material disruption or obstruction of any lawful mission, process, or function of the school.
