In the classroom, your students should be supervised at all times. If you should have to leave your room for an emergency, leave the door open and inform the office or tell the nearest teacher. Send a student to notify the office if a medical or disciplinary emergency occurs which prevents you from using the intercom or leaving the room. Common sense and professionalism dictate the judgment. Bear in mind that if a problem should develop among your students or an injury occurs during a time when you are responsible for them, and there is no adult supervisor present, the liability is yours. Regardless of how reliable students may be, do not leave them inside unless supervised by an adult during recess times or any other time.
