CAC Campus Access

 

Cairo American College
Community Usage of CAC Facilities
Philosophy and Parameters

 

Philosophy:

“We collaborate through a partnership of motivated students, exemplary and caring staff, and involved families within a dynamic American educational model, enriched by our multicultural and diverse student body and the school’s unique location in Egypt.”

It is our belief that “Embracing diversity strengthens community and enriches life,” and that, “The well-being of the community depends upon the peaceful actions and contributions of every member.” (CAC Mission Statement, 2009)

The CAC campus is open for CAC ID holders to use from 5:00am to 7:00am and from 5:30pm to 10:00pm each weekday as well as from 5:00am to 10:00pm on weekends and holidays. We believe our position in the community at large is important, that we have a unique opportunity to host events and programs on our campus that are not part of CAC, but that provide a benefit to our students, faculty or staff. In so doing, and in compliance with our Campus Access Policy, we may also open our doors to non-CAC ID holders and make our facilities available to the community at large.

 

Parameters:

  • The campus is first and foremost a venue for CAC students, faculty, staff, alumni, board members, and their respective families.
  • The security of our campus and facilities and the well being of our students, families and employees will not be compromised in any way, at any time.
  • All community programs will be sustainable and this may necessitate proactively limiting access to facilities and/or implementing a usage fee in order to offset the cost of operations.
  • All community program offerings are subject to the approval of the Superintendent, in consultation with the Activities and Athletic Directors and other administrators as seen necessary.
  • Instructors or coaches must be adults with the appropriate qualifications for the offering they provide.
  • For any event or activity, at least 50% of the participants should be CAC ID holders. Non-CAC ID holders will be charged a fee, to be determined prior to the time of registration. Fees are established in consultation with the Facilities Manager and the Business Manager.
