Visitor Check-In
To keep our schools safe, all visitors are required to have a valid state-issued identification card, such as a driver’s license or a state ID, to check in and ensure the accuracy of the information provided. Valid identification is also used to ensure that the person checking in is the same as the ID holder.
Check-in process
District 63 uses the Visitor Aware Management System (as of March 1, 2025) to screen all visitors and ensure that only safe visitors are granted access to all locations in the District. This provides an additional layer of security for your children by validating the identities of anyone entering the premises, determining if they are a potential threat, and keeping accurate records of all school visits. Upon arrival, visitors simply scan their ID at a kiosk located in the lobby. Once approved, the building secretary buzzes them in and provides a visitor pass which must be worn at all times while visiting classrooms or other building areas. Upon signing out of the school, the ID will be returned to the individual in exchange for the visitor’s pass.
Information collected includes ID number and expiration date, name (first/middle/last), birthdate, address, sex, and photograph.
