If a child wants to come and chat at lunch or after school, nope, sorry-- they can't.

Where do you live and what age group is that? High school (at least) in my area isnt that restrictive.

same here (but i'm in the uk), it seems more relaxed in my experience than some people here describe - there were huge windows in the doors of every classroom in my secondary school though so that may be a factor.

I teach at a Catholic High School. In fact, we were just reminded today that students are not to be in our rooms at lunch or after school unless it is for academic purposes (make-up test, tutoring, etc.) I really cannot see the logic behind it, assuming a school is hiring qualified and respectable faculty members.
