Flyer/Information Distribution Approval Process

Please note that the below guidelines and processes are applicable to organizations that are not run by FHSD. These guidelines do not affect flyers that publicize events and opportunities run by FHSD (student clubs, student activities, events run solely by the school).

Flyers and information publicizing events or opportunities from organizations and individuals who are not governed by FHSD must be approved by Central Office. This includes posting of flyers, information, brochures and letters on school bulletin boards, the district website and district/school newsletters.

Requests are appreciated at least one week prior to distribution. Every effort will be made to give a prompt response, but delays in approval may occur.

The following information is required for flyers to be considered for approval:

PDF (not a scan) of information or flyer to be distributed
Contact Information (name, phone and email)
Sponsoring Organization
Not-for-Profit Status of Organization*
Requested Method of Distribution (website, bulletin board, newsletter etc.)

*For-profit organizations will be approved for distribution under the following conditions:

The business indicates they have entered into an agreement with a school principal or district administrator about the offer/event.
There is a direct benefit (i.e. scholarships, fundraising) to the school/district and that benefit is stated on the flyer or information.

Distribution

Once approved by Central Office, the flyer or information will be posted on the district website, which will directly link to all school newsletters. In cases where requested and approved, hard copies flyers/information may be posted in schools in locations approved by the principal. Please note that not all schools utilize a community bulletin board.

The district does not distribute physical flyers to students from outside organizations. Board-approved support organizations may request that Central Office approve four flyers or informational pieces for hard copy distribution to all students in a school each school year.
