SCHOOL MEMORIALS

It is the policy of the Sabine Parish School Board that no individual, group, or organization shall be permitted to erect a memorial or structure of any kind upon school grounds except by approval of the Superintendent, school principal, and School Board.

Memorials shall be limited to a plaque and/or appropriately displayed portrait in the media center, office, etc. as authorized by the school’s administration.  Also, a simple landscape project may be acceptable (i.e., planting of a tree, small flower garden, small outdoor monument), provided there is little or no maintenance and the project is consistent with the facility’s overall layout as determined by school administration.

Permanent structures shall have utilitarian value in the operation of the school or be erected in memory of a person who has been associated with the school as an employee or an individual who has made significant contributions of time, effort, expertise, resources, etc. for a significant period of time.

Articles of equipment donated to the schools by individuals, groups, or organizations may be accepted if they benefit the school or a school's program.
