the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (as amended), Title IX of the Educational Amendments of 1972, P.L. 93-112, and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the regulations there under, it is the policy of the Raymore-Peculiar R-II School District that no person shall, because of age, sex, race, disability, or national origin be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity of the District, including the employment of staff personnel. Written district policies concerning the rights and responsibilities of employees and students are available for inspection at the administrative office of the District. Inquiries by persons about their protection against discrimination under the Americans with Disabilities Act, Title IX, Title VI, or PL 93-112 and Section 504 may be directed in writing or by telephone to: Director of Human Resources Raymore-Peculiar R-II School District 21005 S. School Road Peculiar, MO 64078 816-892-1300 FAX: 816 892-1380 STATEMENT OF PURPOSE The purpose of Raymore-Peculiar High School is to provide a safe, caring and dynamic learning environment where all students are prepared to be responsible, productive, self-sufficient citizens. The RAY-PEC HIGH SCHOOL MISSION: It is the mission of Raymore-Peculiar High School to prepare ALL students for a successful and meaningful life in a global society by providing them with opportunities to nurture their own unique abilities and to empower them with life-long learning skills so as to be responsible, productive citizens. RAY-PEC FIGHT SONG Go you Panthers, fight the enemy Make them kneel before our varsity We’re behind you with our battle cry – Indestructible, a do or die For R - P High We’ve got the Panther Pride We are brave and we are bold So fight, fight for R - P High We are the black, white and gold. 5 Dear Parents and Students, We welcome you to Raymore-Peculiar High School for the 2016-17 school year. Our wish is that we all share a year of outstanding successes and that we work together to provide a quality educational environment. Within our high school curriculum, we offer a wide range of courses, along with career and service opportunities. This allows students to gain an understanding of themselves, as well as the skills and techniques involved with living and working with others. It is our desire that students avail themselves of all opportunities for personal growth and fulfillment. Please become familiar with the material in this handbook. Have a great year. Mark Cook Steven Miller Principal Assistant Principal Kristina Martin Jeanne Kuhlman Associate Principal Assistant Principal Tom Kruse Jerry Edson Assistant Principal Activities Director Raymore-Peculiar School District Internet/Network Usage Agreement The internet/network usage agreement provided for by board policy EHB and EHB-R must be signed and on file prior to use of any school district computers. STUDENT DIRECTORY INFORMATION Please be advised that the school district will release “Directory Information” concerning your child upon request. This will include the following information: student’s name, parent’s name, date and place of birth, grade level, enrollment status, participation in school-based activities and sports, height and weight of members of athletic teams, dates of attendance, diplomas and awards received, photographs, videotapes, digital images and recorded sound unless such photographs, videotapes, digital images and recorded sound would be considered harmful or an invasion of privacy. If you do not want this type of information about your child released, please send a note to that effect to your child’s principal. (See Board Policy JO) STUDENT RECORDS Board of Education Policy JO will guide school administration and staff decisions on student records. All parents will have the right to inspect their child’s education records as allowed by law. As used in policy JO, a “parent” includes a biological or adoptive parent, a guardian or an individual acting as a parent in the absence of a natural parent or guardian. The district will extend the same rights to either parent, regardless of divorce, custody or visitation rights, unless the district is provided with evidence that the parent’s rights to inspect records have been legally revoked. OUT-OF-DISTICT MEDICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL EVALUATIONS Occasionally parents seek evaluations that require information from school district employees. The school district will partner with other professionals in order to provide accurate information. It is the district’s practice to first obtain a release of information from the parent that will allow us to share information with the requesting agency. Subsequently, all rating scales, narratives, and other requested information will be forwarded directly to the agency itself. Raymore-Peculiar School District’s practice is to allow observations of students by qualified district personnel or those professionals with whom the district contracts directly. Raymore-Peculiar School District will provide detailed record of the observation so that information about the student in the school setting can be shared. District personnel will work with the parent and the outside agency to select the appropriate staff member to match the type of observation requested. 6 INTERNET ACCESS The purpose of the district’s Internet access and other technological resources is to support and enhance learning and teaching by providing students and faculty with the tools necessary. This access enables them to participate in the type of educational activities which will both prepare students for entry into the increasingly complex environment they will face in the work force and will also ensure that teachers and other staff have access to the latest in research materials. Because of the far-reaching implications of these resources, the Board realizes that parameters must be set to assure that activities, which are not appropriate to the learning environment, do not take place. Acceptable uses of the computer resources are activities resulting from specific tasks and assignments, which support learning and teaching, promote the district’s goals and objectives and advance the mission of the district. Unacceptable uses are those which violate the rights to privacy of others; violate copyright law; spread computer viruses; deliberately attempt to degrade or disrupt system performance; and locate, transmit, receive, store or print files or messages that are profane, obscene or that use language that is offensive or degrading to others. The school district is responsible for securing its network and computing systems in a reasonable and economically feasible degree against unauthorized access and /or abuse while making them accessible for authorized and legitimate users. This responsibility includes informing users of expected standards of conduct and the punitive measures for not adhering to them. The administration may develop rules and regulations to help ensure that this informational resource is used in accordance with acceptable guidelines. Teachers are responsible for teaching proper techniques and standards for participation, for guiding student access to appropriate uses of technological resources and for assuring that students understand that if they misuse them, they will lose their access. All users of the district’s computer resources are responsible for respecting and adhering to local, state, federal and international laws governing usage of the available technology. Any attempt to violate the provisions of the district’s rules and regulations governing usage may result in revocation of user privileges, suspension, or other disciplinary action appropriate to the circumstances.

When a student becomes ill at school, he/she must report to the nurse’s office. The nurse will notify the student’s parent/custodian or a responsible adult if the student is too ill to remain at school. 2. All accidents are to be reported to the nurse’s office immediately. An accident report will be completed when appropriate. Following any serious accident, the parent/guardian will be notified immediately. 3. In the case of serious illness where medical attention is immediately required, the student will be sent to the preferred hospital via emergency vehicle. 4. Parents should be certain the school has an emergency telephone number in addition to the home and work telephone numbers. 9 5. Students should not come to school ill. It is very important that we attempt to control the spread of communicable disease. We would appreciate your compliance in following these guidelines: a. Students should be fever-free (without the influence of fever-reducing medicine) for 24 hours before returning to school. b. The student health services recognize an oral or tympanic (ear) temperature as 100.0 degrees Fahrenheit as a fever. Students with a temperature of 100.0 degrees or greater will be sent home from school. c. Students should be free from continuous coughing. d. Students with vomiting or diarrhea will be sent home from school. An exception will be made for students vomiting secondary to certain medications, physical activity, or by the medical judgment of the school nurses. Students should remain at home for 24 hours after their last episode of vomiting or diarrhea. e. Students should remain at home for 24 hours after taking the first dose of an antibiotic for infection. f. Students that are found to have head lice will not be allowed to attend school until free of living specimens and all nits. g. Students will be excluded from school for pink eye/conjunctivitis until on medication for 24 hours with primary care provider’s written orders or until clearing of the eye. h. The health services department shall be informed of any student with an illness characterized by rash, recurrent episodes of bleeding, or who has draining skin lesions. 6. The nurse will not treat injuries that happen away from school. 7. Parent/Guardian or their designated adult representative must deliver and pick up all medications to the health room. 8. A STUDENT MAY FACE DISCIPLINARY ACTION FROM SCHOOL FOR CARRYING, TAKING, OR DISTRIBUTING ANY TYPE OF UNAUTHORIZED PRESCRIPTION OR NON-PRESCRIPTION SUBSTANCES AT SCHOOL, INCLUDING VITAMIN PRODUCTS. The health services department realizes that parents are busy and have many responsibilities. However, it is in the best interest of your student and the other students to avoid sending sick children to school. Time spent in the health room is time NOT spent in the classroom. Immunizations and Medications 1. Each student should have a health inventory form and documentation of required immunizations on file in the health room before entering school. 2. Each student must meet Missouri State law immunization requirements. Medication Policy for High School Medication brought to school will be governed through the health room. Over the counter medication must come in the original container and must be accompanied by a note from parent or guardian and physician stating dosage and time given. No medication is to be carried by the student at school unless they are asthmatic and have been ordered by a physician to carry their inhaler with them. 1. Prescription medications must come in the original current pharmacy bottle with the student’s and Primary care provider’s name clearly visible and must be accompanied by written physician’s instructions along with a signed parental/custodial consent to administer. All medications must be delivered directly to the health room by a responsible adult and will be dispensed by designated personnel. In accordance with school policy medications will not be administered within one (1) hour of dismissal unless there is a written primary care provider’s order and signed parental/custodial consent to administer or the student is involved in a school-sponsored after-school activity. 2. Students who have been diagnosed with asthma may carry a prescription inhaler on their person provided there is a written primary care provider’s order to do so on file in the health room. 3. Students experiencing coughing may carry and use a non-prescription cough drop. 4. School-owned medication will be dispensed only if a current Medication Order and Consent form is on file in the health room. The Medication Order and Consent form must be completed and signed by the parent/custodian. This form needs to be renewed annually. 10 Crisis Planning Schools are safe environments, but emergencies and/or crisis situations can happen anytime and anywhere. Our Emergency Planning process is focused around three central foundational principles, Readiness, Response and Recovery. The READINESS component The RESPONSE component The RECOVERY component includes: includes: includes: • Analyzing our facilities for • Recognizing an emergency • Having predetermined safety, security, equipment or disaster early and programs in place to provide capabilities and other areas communicating initial counseling services to staff, of operational and functional actions to co-workers, students and parents when ability. students and parents. a situation and/or need arise. • R e s e a r c h i n g a n d • Early notification of Public preplanning to determine Safety when appropriate • Having the ability to continue the most probable scenarios (911, Police, Fire, Rescue, operations or the capacity that could adversely affect Sheriff) to restore basic services our staff and the community • Staff implementing actions quickly and effectively. we serve. that follow a predetermined • Maintaining a fiscally sound • Training our staff members plan to mitigate a threat or financial business model so they can act as a team to minimize the impact to our so the organization has mitigate a threat or minimize students when a natural or an emergency funding the impact to our children man-made disaster occurs. mechanism. when a natural or man- • Staff working seamlessly • Utilizing the “hotwash” made disaster occurs. with Public Safety officers methodology (immediate • Constant vigilance to make when they arrive to maximize review of the response to necessary changes when positive outcomes. the situation), so we can protocols or actions need to • Communicating and working continue to reinforce the be modified. readiness process. with families for an effective • Reflection on past experiences reunification. to inform new practices. An Emergency Reference Guide has been developed to assist the Raymore-Peculiar School District staff with preparation, communication and education. This guide provides a step-by-step procedure to follow for most of the predictable scenarios our school district may experience. Critical Steps for Effective Emergency Management 1. Assess the situation. 2. Call 911 or other emergency numbers as appropriate. 3. Secure the building for the safety of students and staff. Take initial actions as provided by the Emergency Reference Guide. 4. Notify the Superintendent and other appropriate personnel. 5. Refer media inquiries to the Communications Coordinator. 6. Notify families of the students and/or people involved. 7. Mobilize the building and/or district Crisis Management Team. 8. Keep a log of all activity. Communications Communications are established between all sites of the Raymore-Peculiar School District, the District Office and the appropriate Public Safety agencies. Due to the geographical make-up of the District, there are several Public Safety entities involved, depending on the precise location of the situations or event. These agencies are: • Local Police and Fire Departments o Raymore Police Department and Peculiar Police Department. o South Metro Fire Department and West Peculiar Fire Department. o Cass County Sherriff’s Department and Emergency Management o Missouri State Highway Patrol 11 The Superintendent’s Office will communicate information and procedures to the public in the event of an emergency situation involving a district site. Information that may be communicated include: • Emergency situation information • Dismissal procedures • Family unification procedures If school must be canceled or dismissed early due to weather conditions or other emergencies, an announcement will be made through School Messenger, RPSD website, area television and radio stations and other media sources (official District social media sites). FIRE/EVACUATION DRILLS Periodic fire/evacuation drills will be held. The alarm is a continuous tone. Evacuation routes are posted in each room. Please observe the following points: • Close windows • Walk rapidly, single file; do not run or talk • Take purses or valuables with you. Leave books and class materials behind. • Go at least 100 feet from the building. Do not block driveway. Do not re-enter building until all clear is sounded (long bell). • Stay with your group or class. TORNADO DRILLS Everyone should prepare for tornado drills. It might be necessary to change plans in the event of a serious threat. An announcement will be made over the intercom indicating the start of the drill. Please observe the following points: • Stay calm. • Students in an interior classroom will remain in that classroom • Students in an exterior classroom will proceed in an orderly fashion to a designated interior classroom. • Students in the gym will proceed to the locker rooms. • If students are outside and do not have time to move into a safe building, they should lie flat in the nearest depression or ravine. • All students should stay away from the gym and glass windows. * All students should stay in their assigned location until the building “ALL Clear” signal is given. EARTHQUAKE • Students should be instructed to move away from windows and other possible hazards. • Students should be instructed to get under a desk, table, or other shelter or against an inside wall. If the shelter moves, move with it, and stay under it. • Students should assume the DROP position and be silent so directions can be heard above the noise of the earthquake. • Students should stay in the DROP position until the earthquake is over and/or further instructions are given. • After the initial shock and things settle down, students and teachers will evacuate classrooms being alert to the possibility of after -shocks. LOCKERS Lockers are the property of the school and are subject to inspection at any time for any reason. Lockers are assigned at the beginning of the school year. Students are not to change lockers without permission from the assistant principal. There is a $5.00 charge for a lost lock. There may be a fee for a student who damages or fails to maintain his/her locker. LOST AND FOUND Any items found should be turned in to the principal’s office. If a student loses an item, he/she should check with the front office. 12 TELEPHONES Office telephones may not be used except in an emergency. Telephone calls are to be made between classes, during lunch periods, and before or after school. Students are not to ask to be excused from class to use the telephone. Incoming calls to the school office, which are an emergency or of an urgent nature, will be accepted only from a parent, in which case, the message will be delivered as soon as possible. CHANGE OF ADDRESS/TELEPHONE It is the responsibility of the student to immediately notify the principal’s office in the event of a change in address or a telephone number. Student Records Graduates wanting to obtain transcripts need to contact Adreanna Wescoat at 816-892-1568 in the North counseling office. Current students wanting to obtain transcripts need to contact the scholarship office at 816-892-1414 in the South building. ID BADGES Because safety is always a high priority, all Ray-Pec High School students will be issued ID badges. Students must have their ID badges with them at all times. Students in the building who do not present their badges when instructed to do so will be given consequences or will have privileges revoked. Badges will be replaced at the cost of $5.00.

Juniors and seniors are expected to use this service soon after school begins. REFERRAL SERVICES-COMMUNITY AGENCIES Counselors will provide information concerning community agencies and services to benefit students. GRADING SYSTEM In order to maintain an equitable reporting system, it is essential that teachers at all levels use a similar grading scale. The following scale shall be used for determining grades on a percentage basis: POINTS LETTER PERCENT 4.00 A 100 - 93 3.66 A- 92 - 90 3.33 B+ 89 - 88 3.00 B 87 - 83 2.66 B- 82 - 80 2.33 C+ 79 - 78 2.00 C 77 - 73 1.66 C- 72 - 70 1.33 D+ 69 - 68 1.00 D 67 - 63 .66 D- 62 – 6 0 F 59 - 0 :(,*+7('*5$',1*$1'&/$66(6 Students will be offered an opportunity for weighted credit in Advanced Placement Courses, IB Courses, and Dual Credit Courses based on the following criteria: a.

Upon successful completion of the diploma program, students will earn an IB diploma, which is recongnized throughout the world by universities and colleges. University and colleges often offer advanced standing, preferential admission, course credits, and financial benefits to diploma earners. ADVANCED PLACEMENT The Advanced Placement Program (AP) is a cooperative educational endeavor between secondary schools and colleges and universities. It gives high school students exposure to college level material through involvement in an AP course, and then gives them an opportunity to show what they have learned by taking an optional AP Exam. Colleges and universities are then able to grant credit, placement, or both to these students. 16 DUAL ENROLLMENT Juniors and seniors may sign up for classes at MCCKC (Longview) if they are in good standing with regards to graduation credits. Qualified students should see their counselor for a Dual Enrollment Procedures handout and a School District-MCCKC Dual Enrollment Approval Form. There are specific procedures for how dual enrollment courses affect GPA, graduation requirements, transcripts, and weightedness. The approval form must be signed by student, parent, and guidance counselor/principal and activities director prior to enrollment at MCCKC. Dual enrollment credit does not become a part of the high school transcript unless it qualifies for high school credit under the terms of the agreement with the Metropolitan Community Colleges. Regulations for dual enrollment: 1) 2.5 GPA to qualify for career-technical courses, 3.0 GPA to qualify for academic courses 2) College credit may apply to high school credit if pre-approved (see your guidance counselor) 3) Appropriate placement score (if applicable) COLLEGE CREDIT Students may receive college credit for successful completion of college courses listed in the Career and Educational Planning Guide. Credit is issued through UMKC, UCM, and MCC. Colleges may require payment to be made directly to the university. Classroom teachers will provide this information. Students must receive a C or better to earn college credit. College transcripts are housed at the college and not at the high school. COLLEGE VISITS Juniors and seniors with a 2.5 cumulative GPA or higher will be granted two college visits. These will be considered school-related absences if proper documentation is provided. Documentation includes a college visit form in the college/scholarship office and a pre-arranged absence form in the attendance office, which should be approved prior to the visit. Students will have 48 hours to provide documentation of the visit. CORRESPONDENCE COURSES Board of education policy IKF will guide administrative decisions on the acceptance of summer school, correspondence, and on-line courses for credit towards early graduation. The Raymore-Peculiar R-II School district recognizes units of credit obtained through accredited schools, including credits earned through correspondence courses or courses delivered primarily through electronic media, such as satellite video, cable video or computer-driven or online courses. For the purposes of this policy, an “accredited school” is the Missouri Virtual Instruction Program (MoVIP); a private agency where students with disabilities are placed by a public school; or any school accredited by the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) or the North Central Commission on Accreditation or equivalent and School Improvement (NCA CASI). Except for courses earned through MoVIP, a student may apply a maximum of two (2) credits from correspondence courses to meet graduation requirements. CASS CAREER CENTER & SUMMIT TECH Students who are interested in attending the Cass Career Center or Summit Technology Academy are required to complete an application as part of the selection process through the counseling office.

ATTENDANCE POLICY Absences are recorded as verified, excused, and unexcused. Students missing 30 or more minutes of the class period will be charged with a full absence for that class. Students needing to leave school before dismissal must sign out (and may not ride with other students) in the attendance office and provide documentation of the reason for leaving (parental phone call, appointment note, etc.) in advance. Parents may not call in after a student has left campus to verify the absence. Students under the age of 17 with excessive absences will be referred to juvenile authorities. Late Arrivals A student arriving at school after 7:35am will be considered “late” rather than “tardy”. The maximum number of late arrivals and/or tardies that a parent can verify is 3 per semester for 1st period. Parents may not verify tardies earned transitioning between classes. Students will begin receiving a 45-minute detention upon the 4th verified late/tardy 19 verified absences Verified Absence is defined as an absence from class resulting from illness or unforeseen circumstances which is verified by a parent within 48 hours of the absence. Parents are urged to call the attendance office at 892-1412 or 892-1557 on any day their child will be absent from school to verify the absence. Excused Absences Excused absences will be granted when a note is received by the attendance office.

Unexcused absences / Truancy Any absences not verified or excused will be considered unexcused and are subject to consequences. Loss of credit Students and parents will be notified after the student’s 4th absence from a class that he/she are in danger of losing credit. Students absent from a class for more than 10 periods during a semester with or without verification of the absences will not receive credit for that class. Upon the 11th absence a student and parent will be notified of the loss of credit in that class. Within two weeks of notification of credit loss, a student may make an appointment to appeal the loss of credit to the Attendance Appeals Committee. Attendance appeal forms can be obtained from the attendance office. Until the appeal is heard, the student will continue to attend class and will be graded as usual. The decision of the appeals committee will be final. The Appeals Committee will consist of the following: Assistant Principal, Counselor, and High School Teachers. Students appealing the loss of credit may appear with parents and submit any materials they believe would be valuable in the defense of their credit. The committee will consider all extenuating circumstances before coming to a final decision. The appealing student will be notified of the committee’s decision within 48 hours of the appeal. If the committee’s decision is not satisfactory to the student or parents, a second appeal may be made to the building principal. Students absent for 21 consecutive days will be dropped from the rolls of Ray-Pec High School unless parents or students contact the attendance office. TARDY POLICY Punctuality is important in every aspect of life. Being on time is a personal responsibility on the part of the student.

CARS AND PARKING It is a privilege, not a right, to park on school grounds. The school retains the authority to conduct routine patrols of any vehicle parked on school grounds. The interior of a student’s automobile on school premises may be searched if the school authority has reasonable suspicion to believe that such a search will produce evidence that the student has violated or is violating either the law or district policy. The school will try to contact the student/ owner prior to the search, but may conduct searches without notice or consent. A student is responsible for the contents of his or her vehicle. 1. All students are annually required to purchase a parking hang tag by the second week of school. The cost of the first hang tag is $25.00 per semester or $50.00 per year. A processing fee of $2 will be charged for each hang tag. Students who do not have a valid sticker on the car will receive consequences as stated in the discipline policy. Students who have unpaid tickets or fines from the previous school year will not be issued a parking pass until they are paid. 2.

The school reserves the right to restrict any student from attending classes or school activities when such student’s dress, general appearance and/or conduct creates safety, health, or discipline problems. Inappropriately dressed students will be required to either change into appropriate attire, or will be subject to disciplinary action. Any exceptions to the dress code will be determined by the administration. DETENTION Before-school or after-school detentions can be issued by a classroom teacher or an administrator. A Twenty-four-hour notice will be given so a student who has been assigned to a detention may have the opportunity to inform his/her parents and make arrangements for transportation home.

Introduction and General Statement The Raymore-Peculiar School District believes that schools have been established for the education of the individual and the improvement of society. The district also believes that one of the major functions of our schools is the preparation of youth for citizenship in our community and nation. Self-discipline and the acceptance of individual responsibility are important phases of this preparation. It is the objective and policy of the Raymore-Peculiar School District to recognize, preserve and protect the individual rights of all students and yet, at the same time, to encourage and enforce the exercise of these rights within the necessary framework of an orderly, efficient and continuing school program. Therefore, discipline and structure are necessary standards for the maintenance of an atmosphere where orderly learning is possible and encouraged. All district personnel responsible for the care and supervision of students are authorized to hold every pupil strictly accountable for any disorderly conduct in school, or on any property of the school, on any school bus going to or returning from school or school activities, and during school-sponsored activities. The principal of each school is authorized and directed to develop rules and regulations consistent with policies, rules and regulations approved by the Board of Education and disseminate them each year to students and/or parents. The Board of Education recognizes that acceptable behavior is essential to the development of responsible and self-disciplined citizens and in promoting an effective instructional program in the school. Acceptable behavior is based on respect for one’s self and for the worth and human dignity of others. The development of such behavior in students is a dual function of the home and school. In order to fulfill the responsibility of the school, it is necessary that each activity is conducive to learning. Standards of student conduct are established by the Raymore-Peculiar School District Board of Education to create an environment in which each student’s right to learn is protected. Students are expected to attend school punctually and regularly, to obey all the rules and regulations, to obey all directions and requests of staff, to observe good order and correct deportment, to be diligent in study, to be clean and tidy in person and attire, to be obliging to others, to refrain from the use of profane or improper language and to refrain from the use of tobacco, illegal drugs, controlled substances and alcoholic beverages, while on school premises or under school supervision. Students and parents will be notified of rights and responsibilities, including standards of conduct, through handbooks distributed annually. The Student Code of Conduct is designed to foster student responsibility, respect for the rights of others and to insure the orderly operations of the school. No code can be expected to list each and every offense, which may result in the use of disciplinary action. However, it is the purpose of this Code to list certain offenses, which, if committed by a student, will result in the imposition of a consequence. Any conduct not included herein, or an aggravated circumstance of any offense or an action involving a combination of offenses may result in disciplinary consequences that extend beyond this code of conduct as determined by the principal, superintendent and/or Board of Education. Refer to Board of Education policies JFCA, JFCF, JFCH, JFCJ, JFG, JFH, JG, JG-R1 and JG-R2, JGA, JGB, JGD, JGE, JGF. 31 II. Disciplinary Consequences and Notification Students shall be expected to assume their share of responsibility in maintaining an atmosphere conducive to effective teaching/learning situations in all classes and activities in which they participate under the sponsorship of the school. All school district personnel responsible for the care and supervision of the students are authorized to hold every student strictly accountable for any disorderly conduct in violation of the standard of student conduct. The discipline authority, standard of conduct and consequences of volatile conduct administered by district personnel as described in this handbook shall apply equally to students: A) in school; B) on any property of the district, or contiguous to district property; C) during any district-sponsored activities, and including on any school bus going to or returning from school, or any district-sponsored activities; or during intermission or recess periods (Refer to policies JFCC and JG-R1 and JG-R2.) Students may be disciplined for violations of school district policies, building handbook rules or classroom policies. Students receiving administrative discipline will be given a copy of the discipline referral outlining the nature of the problem, administrative action and the date/time of the consequence. Parents will be notified of disciplinary actions by email/letter as soon as possible. In the case of serious disciplinary action involving out-of-school suspension, an attempt will be made to contact the parents by phone. When a student is sent to the office for disciplinary action, the administrator has the option of following the disciplinary consequence outlined in this handbook or administering other disciplinary action as deemed appropriate. Failure of the student to come to the office on request may be deemed insubordination and be cause for out-of-school suspension. All students must secure passes upon and before returning to their classes. III. SAFE SCHOOLS LAW In accordance with Missouri House Bills 1301 and 1298, the “Safe Schools” legislation provides the following safeguards for the local school district. According to Missouri Revised Statute 160.261. The local board of education of each school district shall clearly establish a written policy of discipline. A written copy of the district’s discipline policy shall be provided to the pupil and parent or legal guardian of every pupil enrolled in the district at the beginning of each school year and also made available in the office of the superintendent of such district, during normal business hours, for public inspection. All employees of the district shall annually receive instruction related to the specific contents of the policy of discipline and any interpretations necessary to implement the provisions of the policy in the course of their duties, including but not limited to approved methods of dealing with acts of school violence, disciplining students with disabilities and instruction in the necessity and requirements for confidentiality. The policy shall require school administrators to report acts of school violence to all teachers at the attendance center and, in addition, to other school district employees with a need to know. For the purposes of this chapter or chapter 167, “need to know” is defined as school personnel who are directly responsible for the student’s education or who otherwise interact with the student on a professional basis while acting within the scope of their assigned duties. As used in this section, the phrase “act of school violence” or “violent behavior” means the exertion of physical force by a student with the intent to do serious physical injury to another person while on school property, including a school bus in service on behalf of the district, or while involved in school activities. The policy shall at a minimum require school administrators to report, as soon as reasonably practical, to the appropriate law enforcement agency any of the following crimes, or any act which if committed by an adult would be one of the following crimes: (1) First degree murder; (2) Second degree murder; (3) Kidnapping; (4) First degree assault; (5) Forcible rape; (6) Forcible sodomy; (7) Burglary in the first degree; (8) Burglary in the second degree; (9) Robbery in the first degree; (10) Distribution of drugs; (11) Distribution of drugs to a minor; (12) Arson in the first degree; (13) Voluntary manslaughter; (14) Involuntary manslaughter; (15) Second degree assault; (16) Sexual assault; (17) Felonious restraint; (18) Property damage in the first degree; (19) The possession of a weapon; (20) Child molestation in the first degree; (21) Deviate sexual assault; (22) Sexual misconduct involving a child; (23) Sexual abuse; (24) Harassment; or (25) Stalking; committed on school property, including but not limited to actions on any school bus in service on behalf of the district or while involved in school activities. The policy shall require that any portion of a student’s individualized education program that is related to demonstrated or potentially violent behavior shall be provided to any teacher and other school district employees who are directly responsible for the student’s education or who otherwise interact with the student on an educational basis while acting within the scope of their assigned duties. The policy shall also contain the consequences of failure to obey standards of conduct set by the local board of education, and the importance of the standards to the maintenance of an atmosphere where orderly learning is possible and encouraged. 32 The school board is authorized to immediately remove through suspension or expulsion a pupil upon finding by a principal, superintendent, or the school board that such pupil poses a threat of harm to self or others, based upon the child’s prior conduct. No school board is permitted to readmit or enroll a pupil suspended or expelled for having committed certain felonies. IV. ADMINISTRATIVE DISCRETION The building administrators may deviate from policy guidelines when warranted by extenuating circumstances. The administration reserves the right to contact law enforcement agencies and juvenile authorities in dealing with discipline situations. In some instances, due to the severity of a wrongful behavior, the administration may invoke a penalty or consequence at a level beyond the offense. V. Definition of Discipline A process designed to teach, model, and use appropriate consequences to bring about the responsible behaviors necessary to ensure a safe, orderly, and productive learning environment by helping to change unacceptable behavior to acceptable behavior. VI. Discipline Belief Statement 1. Teaching and learning of the intended curriculum for all students is the highest priority. Therefore, the misbehavior of one student • will not be allowed to interfere with the learning opportunities of another student. • will not be allowed to interfere with the teacher’s responsibility to teach all students. • will not excuse the misbehaving student from successfully completing the learning objectives. 2. Self-discipline is the expected outcome. 3. In the handling of unacceptable behaviors, the focus will be on judging the behavior of the student, not on judging the student. VII. BEHAVIOR EXPECTATIONS 1. Students will demonstrate self-respect, respect for others, and respect for all things in their environment. 2. A safe and productive learning environment will be maintained for all individuals at school and at school-related activities. 3. Conflicts will be handled without the use of violence or threats of violence and with respect for the rights of all. 4. Students will be expected to be on task at all times while in the classroom or at other learning activities. 5. Staff will provide learning opportunities for misbehaving students with support from parents and/ or guardians. 6. Staff, students and parents will assist misbehaving students to change their unacceptable behavior to acceptable behavior. 33 STUDENT CONDUCT Levels of Unacceptable Behavior Consequence for any 4000 code is up to 10 Days OSS with a potential referral to DISTRICT office for Long-term suspension and law enforcement notification.

Your grades and coursework will directly impact your admittance to college. Fill your schedule with a variety of subjects and difficulty. Colleges are looking for well-rounded students who are highly motivated. Do your best in each class. Do not let a class slip because it does not interest you. Colleges look for a consistent performance in all subjects. Take the SAT or ACT in time to include scores on your college applications. Look at as many potential colleges as possible. Do not limit your options. Visit as many campuses as possible and talk to students, staff and the office of admissions while at the college. Send applications to prospective colleges beginning in early fall of your senior year. You can obtain applications and information in the guidance office or online at university and college websites. Fill out any potential scholarship forms and send them to the appropriate personnel. Allow at least two weeks for your counselor to process your applications. Many schools will respond to your application within four to six weeks. Steps for Juniors {1} {2} {3} {4} {5} {6} {7} {8} {9} {10} Talk to your counselor about filling your junior-year class schedule with coursework in English, foreign language, social studies, science, and mathematics. It is recommended that students take as many mathematics courses as possible. Colleges are looking for well-rounded students in the arts, business, drama, and speech. Find out when potential universities are visiting your school or when your school is going on visitations to potential colleges. It is best to visit campuses when classes are in session. (Not spring break, Christmas or any major holiday.) Take a course that prepares you for the SAT or ACT. At the beginning of your junior year, take the PSAT exam to practice and gauge yourself for the SAT. Take the SAT or ACT in the spring of your junior year. If you feel the score does not reflet your ability, retake the exam during your senior year. Start applying for any scholarships for which you feel you are qualified. If you know your intended field of study in college, schedule your senior year with an emphasis in that area. Plan to visit as many colleges during the summer as possible. Steps for Seniors {1} {2} {3} {4} {5} {6} {7} {8} {9} {10} 160 Attend as many college fairs as possible in your local area. Visit as many institutions and universities as possible.

Talk to older friends and students about that particular college or university. Ensure that your SAT or ACT scores meet the requirments of the colleges and universities that interest you. If necessary, retake the entrance exams. Make a list of admission deadlines at the colleges you are interested in attending. Submit completed college applications to your guidance counselor, and be sure to include any application fees. File a financial aid form. Inquire about any available scholarships, and be sure to meet the appropriate requirements and deadlines. Keep a file of any correspondence from potential colleges for future reference.
