CASH IN SCHOOL BUILDINGS
The Central Community School Board shall direct that no money shall be left overnight in an unlocked safe, nor shall any principal or teacher keep cash in his or her office or classroom overnight. Sound business procedure requires principals, teachers, bookkeepers, and any other person in any school handling funds to forward money to the principal's office on the day of collection, to be deposited on the same day of collection, whenever possible, except for small sums needed for petty cash.
Principals and other school personnel shall establish necessary precautions to ensure the safekeeping of all monies under their control, which shall be in compliance with applicable district administrative regulations and procedures.
