Safety

Parkville High School prioritizes the safety of all athletes, coaches, officials, and spectators at athletic events by adhering to countywide policies. BCPS has implemented these safety guidelines that will be enforced at each sporting event.

Key points include:

  • Elementary and middle school students attending athletic events must be accompanied by an adult (18 years and older) and remain with the adult for the entire event.
  • Only the following types of bags are allowed:
    • Small clutch bags, no larger than 4.5" x 6.5" or approximately the size of a hand. These bags may be subject to search prior to entry.
    • An exception will be made for medically necessary items and diaper bags. These bags may be subject to search prior to entry.
  • No outside food or drinks will be permitted.
  • Once spectators have entered a game, there will be no re-entry if they choose to leave before the game has ended.
  • Loitering at athletic events or on school grounds after the conclusion of the event will not be permitted. Students should arrange transportation home for immediately after the event. Please plan accordingly.
