Flyers publicizing community events within the area served by District 15 may be posted on the D15 e-Flyers online page, and/or placed in the school lobby for students or parents to pick up, subject to the conditions listed below, at no cost to the sponsoring organization. Our schools are also encouraged to promote the D15 e-Flyers page in their family newsletters, where parents can find all approved flyers in one place online. District 15 provides this service as an informational convenience for our students and families.
The following requirements will apply to all materials submitted for online and lobby distribution:
- Only events sponsored by NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS may be publicized in this manner. No commercial publications shall be posted or distributed unless the purpose is to further an activity or program that is initiated or sponsored by the school district.
- The text of the material must be geared toward providing services for children and families within the District 15 community.
- The district reserves the right to request verification of a charitable organization’s IRS 501(c)(3) status and to refuse posting/distribution of materials from organizations which do not meet these requirements.
- Endorsement by the school district is not intended or implied. (See disclaimer required for printed copies.)
- The text of the material MUST INCLUDE A NAME AND TELEPHONE NUMBER, E-MAIL ADDRESS, AND/OR WEB ADDRESS where inquiries may be directed should parents or students have questions.
- Advertising may not appear in the flyer.
