Campus Safety and Security
La Jolla Country Day School is a closed campus. Our priority is to ensure a safe environment for students, staff, and visitors. Please follow the procedures below.
Visitor Check-In Procedures
We value and welcome the presence of visitors on campus. Please use the Genesee Ave entrance.
- All visitors must check in at either the Genesee guard station or the main reception desk in the Jacobs Family Library/Administration Building. The security guard will direct visitors where to park.
- Visitors must present a valid ID and be scanned through the SchoolPass system, which performs an instant background check against all 50 states’ sex offender registries.
- After check-in, visitors will receive a temporary ID badge, which must be worn at all times while on campus and returned to the main desk before departure.
Volunteer ID Requirements
Volunteers make a meaningful difference in the daily lives of LJCDS students. Parents and other family members can help in classrooms, support events, or join committees. To maintain a safe and secure environment, all volunteers must:
-
Sign in at either the Genesee guard station or the main reception in the Jacobs Family Library/Administration Building.
-
Wear a visible official LJCDS ID badge or obtain a temporary visitor badge upon arrival.
-
Keep their badge on at all times while on campus.
If a badge is lost or forgotten, a temporary one can be picked up at the Security Office or the Main Reception Desk. Security or staff will kindly redirect any adult not wearing a badge to a check-in location.
