Preferred term

closed and open campus policies  

Definition

  • A closed campus policy keeps a school's student body on campus during the school day, while an open campus policy allows students to leave campus, particularly during lunch. Open campus policies allow students to drive or walk off campus during a designated time, providing more freedom to students along with more opportunity to engage in risk-taking behavior.
