EGUSD’s board policy allows for the distribution of printed materials prepared by governmental agencies, service organizations, or school related organizations, which extend the community’s cultural, recreational, artistic, or educational opportunities and which do not promote any particular commercial, religious, or political interest.
All flyers must go through the District’s approval process. When submitting a flyer request, please include the following information:
-
- The organization must include their non-profit tax identification number on the request (not the flyer).
- The organization must clearly state the school site(s) or grade level(s) for which you are requesting distribution.
- The organization must submit the appropriate translation as required by EdCode 48985. Please scroll down to “Community Members” for details.
- The EGUSD disclaimer must be on the flyer you are presenting for approval.
The disclaimer states:
“This is not an Elk Grove Unified School District sponsored program and EGUSD accepts no liability or responsibility for this program/activity.”
The printing and distribution of the flyers is the responsibility of the person/organization who has submitted the flyer.

Community Members
Please be advised regarding the flyer approval process. California Education Code 48985 states that when 15% or more of the pupils enrolled at a school speak a single primary language other than English, all notices, reports, statements, being sent or distributed by a school site must be written in English AND in the primary language of the parent/guardian.
Not all schools will need a translation.
