R. Trespassing
Although schools are public facilities, the law does allow the District to restrict access to school property. When a student is removed, suspended, expelled, or permanently excluded, the student is not allowed within 100 feet of school property without authorization of the principal.
S. Theft
When a student is caught stealing, s/he will be disciplined and may be reported to law enforcement officials. Students are encouraged not to bring anything of value to school without prior authorization from the principal or dean of students. The school is not responsible for personal property.
T. Insubordination
If given a reasonable direction by a staff member, the student is expected to comply. Failure to comply with directions or acting in defiance of staff members will result in disciplinary action.
U. Damaging Property
Vandalism and disregard for school property will not be tolerated.
V. Persistent Absence or Tardiness
Attendance laws require students to be in school all day or have a legitimate excuse. It is also important to establish consistent attendance habits in order to succeed in school and in the world of work. Penalties can range from after school study tables to referral to the Juvenile Courts.
W. Unauthorized Use of School or Private Property
Students are expected to obtain permission to use any school property or any private property located on school premises. Any unauthorized use shall be subject to disciplinary action.
X. Refusing to Accept Discipline
When a student refuses to accept the usual discipline for an infraction, the refusal can result in a sterner action.
Y. Aiding and Abetting Violation of School Rules.
If a student assists another student in violating any school rule, they will be disciplined. Students are expected to resist peer pressure and exercise sound decision-making regarding their behavior.
Z. Displays of Affection
Affection between students is personal and not meant for public display. This includes but is not limited to holding hands, touching, petting, kissing, etc. Sexual activity of any nature is prohibited and will result in disciplinary action.

Students are not allowed to bring radios, “boom boxes”, CD players, cassette players, MP3 players, portable TV’s, electronic toys, pagers, cellular phones, beepers or other paging devices, and the like without the permission of the principal. The property will be confiscated and disciplinary action will be taken.
