Student photographs may be taken during school hours on school premises by commercial photographers only when there is a school purpose for them such as a yearbook, student records or identification cards.
When permission has been granted for student photographs taken by a commercial photographer for a school purpose, such photographs may be taken either during or outside school hours. Teachers or other school personnel may assist in the process.
The commercial photographer who is taking the photographs may advise students by means of a card, brochure or other appropriate device that copies may be purchased directly from the photographer.
Groups such as student organizations, parent associations and booster clubs may organize the sale of copies of student photographs provided no school employees participate during working hours and photographs are taken during non-school hours unless permission is granted by an administrator.
