Guidelines for organizations wishing to distribute information through DASD
At present, the DeForest Area School District offers non-profit organizations the opportunity to provide students and parents information about activities that fit with the District’s mission, vision, and beliefs. Information regarding community activities/programs that are for public school-age students will be shared with students/families if (1) the information meets the criteria set forth below; and (2) the person requesting to share the information through the schools follows the procedure for the distribution of the material.
Requests for the distribution of non-school-sponsored materials shall be submitted to the Office of School/Community Relations (scr@deforestschools.org) who shall determine if the information should be shared based upon the following criteria:
- The program/activity must serve K-12 public school-age children;
- The program/activity does not violate the law;
- The program/activity must be considered appropriate as determined by the School/Community Relations Coordinator or Superintendent's office;
- The materials requested to be shared are not being provided for the purpose of recruiting current DeForest Area School District students to attend a non-DASD school/educational program/activity that occurs during regular school hours during the school year; and
- Community programs/activities do not include, for example, any activity, product, or service that is generally open to the public at large as an income-generating or for-profit business activity and that is generally not specific to public school-age students, including those being offered at special rates or discounts to attract school-age customers/consumers and their families (e.g., restaurants, hotels, entertainment venues, etc.).
- Organizations are required to include a disclaimer on all materials (i.e., flyers, brochures, and promotional materials).

Disclaimer #1 is to be included in any materials that are distributed by organizations, businesses, etc. outside of our school district.
This is not a school-sponsored activity and the DeForest Area School District does not provide support or endorsement of this program/activity. It has neither reviewed nor approved the program, personnel, or activities announced in this brochure/flyer. Permission to distribute this material must not be considered a recommendation or endorsement by the school district.
Disclaimer #2 is to be included in any materials that are distributed by organizations identified as supporting students and families of our district, such as PTO's, Park & Rec departments, Public Library, etc.
This activity is organized and solely sponsored by a recognized parent or community organization in support of the DeForest Area School District and not by the school district itself. It is recognized that the intent of the activity is to ultimately support students and families served by the DeForest Area School District. Permission to distribute this material has been given by the district.
