Prince
William
County
Public
Schools
(PWCS)
has
a
long-standing
policy
of
prohibiting
the
distribution
of
partisan
political
materials
during
the
school
day
and
at
school-sponsored
activities,
including
athletic
events.
It
is
intended
to
allow
our
students
to
benefit
from
their
school
experience
free
from
the
conflict,
competition,
and
distortion
that
can
be
associated
with
heated
political
campaigns.
Students
should
always
be
the
focus
of
school-related
events,
without
concern
that
they
are
serving
as
an
enticement
to
attract
crowds
for
other
purposes.
PWCS
applies
this
policy
uniformly
and
without
exception
and
asks
that
it
be
respected
by
all
campaigns
and
candidates.
Please
refer
to
the
following
Division

273.01,
"Political
Activities"
Regulation
925-1,
"Distribution
of
Materials
