Campus Flyer Distribution (Reference: GKDA (Legal) and GKDA (Local))
Due to the recent announcements and numerous changes impacting students and staff, no distributions of non-school related flyers or products will be allowed or accepted for general disbursement on district campuses for the remainder of the 2018-19 school year.
