Conduct on School District Premises

The Board expects that students, employees and visitors will treat each other with respect, engage in responsible behavior, exercise self-discipline and model fairness, and equity. Individuals, (including students, employees, and visitors) who violate this policy will be subject to discipline. Students who violate this policy will be disciplined consistent with the District’s student conduct policies. Employees who violate this policy will be disciplined consistent with the District’s employee discipline policies and laws. Visitors who violate this policy will be subject to the consequences set out in this policy.

Individuals are permitted to be present on school district premises only as guests of the District, and, as a condition of such permission, they must comply with the District’s policies, regulations, and procedures. Individuals will not be allowed to interfere with or disrupt the educational environment, the education program or District activities. Individuals are expected to display mature, responsible behavior. The failure of individuals to do so is disruptive and embarrassing to the District, its students, and the community.

To protect the rights of students to participate in the educational program or activities without fear of interference or disruption and to permit the school officials, employees and activity sponsors and officials to perform their duties without interference or disruption, the following provisions are in effect:

  • Abusive, threatening, or inappropriate, verbal or physical conduct of individuals directed at students, school officials, employees, officials, activity sponsors or other individuals will not be tolerated.
  • Verbal or physical conduct of individuals that interferes with the performance of students, school officials, employees, officials or activity sponsors will not be tolerated.
  • The use of vulgar, obscene or demeaning expression directed at students, school officials, employees, officials, activity sponsors or other individuals will not be tolerated.
  • The use of alcohol, non-prescription controlled substances or products containing nicotine on school district grounds is strictly prohibited.

If an individual becomes physically or verbally abusive,or threatening or otherwise engages in inappropriate conduct; uses vulgar or obscene language; uses non-prescription controlled substances, alcohol or products containing nicotine; or in any way interrupts an activity or disrupts the educational program or the orderly environment of the District, the individual may be removed from school district premises by the school official, employee or individual in charge. Law enforcement may be contacted for assistance. The superintendent/designee may exclude an individual who violates this policy from being present on school district premises in the future and/or attending future school district sponsored or approved activities.

If an individual who has been notified of being excluded from school district premises attempts to enter school district premises and/or school district activities, the individual will be advised that his/her presence on school district premises will result in referral to law enforcement for prosecution. The District may obtain a court order for permanent exclusion of the individual from school district premises and/or school district activities.
