Student / Parent and/or Guardian Commitment
Student / Parent and/or Guardian Commitment To Our Inglemoor Students On behalf of the Staff, we would like to welcome you to Inglemoor High School. We are looking forward to assisting you in defining, refining, and fulfilling your educational and high-school-and-beyond goals. Inglemoor High School has a long history of rich academics, activities, and athletic programs. To carry on this tradition, the Inglemoor High School staff encourages you to be actively involved in our community. The Staff will guide your experiences in school and will encourage and promote educational success. Challenge yourself to be involved and engaged. Make a different for yourself and others. To Our Inglemoor Parents and/or Guardians Washington State law requires that every school district summarize the general rules and regulations overseeing the school environment and the expected student code of conduct. Additionally, the rules of conduct are to be made available to students and their parents and/or guardians. This handbook has been prepared to explain and clarify the rules, regulations, policies, and practices governing Inglemoor High School. Rights & Responsibilities Handbook Concerning Student Conduct The Northshore School District will provide limited copies of the above handbook for the 2013 - 2014 school year. Families may obtain an on-line version by going to http://www. nsd.org. Then select “District Information” on the left. Go to the “Parent and Student Information” bar and click on “Rights and Responsibilities.” Please review this Student Handbook with your student . . . . . . particularly the Policies and Procedures section beginning on page 33. It includes important information relating to Attendance, Cheating/Educational Honesty, our Dance Contract, the Dress Code, and Personal Electronic Devices to name a few items. After reviewing and discussing the contents within the handbook, please sign below and have the student return this form to their third period teacher at Inglemoor High School.

Page 1 ◆ IHS Inglemoor High School Academic Honesty Code True education cultivates honor, honesty, character, and perseverance, along with the growth of knowledge and the development of thinking skills. Personal integrity determines our actions and influences every aspect of life. Authentic work is based on the student’s individual and original ideas with the ideas and work of others fully acknowledged. All assignments, written or oral, completed by a student for assessment and grading must use the student’s own language and expression. Sources used or referenced, whether in the form of direct quotation or paraphrase, must be fully and appropriately acknowledged. Understanding the meaning of academic honesty and applying it daily is of primary importance in the educational program of all students at Inglemoor High School. A code of Academic Honesty, therefore, has been established for all students attending Inglemoor High School. Each student is expected to clearly understand and sign the Academic Honesty Code. A copy will then be kept on file during the student's time at Inglemoor. The following behaviors are dishonest and violate the Inglemoor High School Academic Honesty Code: • Plagiarism is the representation of the ideas of work of another person as the student’s own. This includes copying another person’s paper, report, lab book, or assignment in whole or in part and submitting it as one’s own. This can be intentional or the result of sloppy scholarship. A superficial change of wording, structure, or conclusion is not sufficient to turn aside the charge of plagiarism. • Collusion is supporting the lack of honesty by another student, as in allowing one’s work to be copied or submitted for assessment by another. Identical or highly similar passages of his or her own ideas and own expression of ideas unless you are directed by the teacher to work with others as a part of the assignment are considered an act of collusion. Ultimately, each individual’s work should be composed of his or her own ideas and own expression of those ideas. • Duplication of work is the presentation by two or more students of the same assignment, paper, project, or any other work for assessment. • Technology Malpractice is any misuse or abuse of technology including infractions of the school technology user agreement, language translation sites, cell phone messaging or picture transmission. Other examples of cheating might include, but are not limited to the following: • Using cheat sheets, looking at someone’s paper during an exam, using Cliff/Sparks Notes, or on-line sources. • Giving out questions that are on a test to other students • Giving answers to other students during a test or allowing them to copy your work • Exchanging old tests, reports, notebooks, or assignments. • Using electronic devices (e.g., cellular telephones, iPods, CDs, graphing calculators, PDAs, etc.) that can record/ transmit answers to or pictures of tests and assignments to self or others ... commonly referred to as podcasting. THE CODE “I, ___________________________________________________, do hereby resolve to uphold the Inglemoor High School’s Code of Academic Honesty. I shall refrain from all forms of academic dishonesty (plagiarism, collusion, duplication of work, and cheating). I have been made aware of the potential consequences of academic dishonesty (page -- of this handbook under ‘Cheating’).” ______________________________________________ (Student Name — Please Print) ______________________________________________ (Student Signature and Date) _____________________________________________ (Parent/Guardian Name — Please Print) ______________________________________________ (Parent/Guardian Signature and Date) (see Student/Parent and/or Guardian Commitment on page 1) Page 2 ◆ IHS Inglemoor High School Home of the Vikings Student Handbook 2013 - 2014 15500 Simonds Road NE Kenmore, WA 98028-4430 (425) 408-7200 http://inglemoor.nsd.org Principal..........................................

In cooperation with the family and community, our program contributes to the students’ self-realization and focuses on educating young adults who are locally, nationally, and globally responsible. And while the Inglemoor staff is committed to creating a positive and effectual learning environment, we believe that the students are ultimately responsible for their learning. In order to promote our goals for our students, we at Inglemoor have developed a school improvement plan. The five main goals of this plan are as follows: 1. Provide opportunities for parent and community involvement through open forums, business partnerships, academic assistance programs, parent visitation days, community service projects, and business/community presentations. 2. Promote opportunities to assist all students in being successful in the learning environment by examining our ELL services, exploring a more flexible schedule, and by providing study skills instruction to students. 3. Provide opportunities for students to pursue special interests and talents by showcasing students’ talents at assemblies, art fairs, and ASB club displays, by providing teachers with a special interest list, and by providing mini-workshops during the year. 4. Provide opportunities to recognize all students by awarding service/academic awards, by recognizing student achievement via our closed circuit monitors, by establishing a bulletin board in the ASB office, by creating a world map that recognizes cultural pluralism of Inglemoor, and by periodically providing special recognition breakfasts for award-winning students. 5. Provide opportunities for collaborative staff time to develop an integrated curriculum, identify common curriculum themes, integrate technology into the classroom, explore the schedule, and identify core skills that enhance the curriculum which will accommodate the varied learning styles of all students while allowing the teaching staff to enhance their programs. Inglemoor’s philosophy reflects the District’s Strategic Plan which seeks to prepare all students to be lifelong learners, to develop in all students a mastery of appropriate educational competencies, to prepare all students to become ethical, responsible, and contributing citizens, and to assist all students in developing attitudes, behaviors, and skills necessary to make the fullest use of their potential. Mission To inspire compassionate, life-long learners in a safe, caring, and academically challenging environment to meet their full potential as productive, effective citizens of a global society.

Violations constitute cause for revocation of access privileges, suspension of access to school district computers, other school disciplinary action, restitution, and/or appropriate legal action. Personal Safety NSDNet provides access to the public Internet for students for the purposes of research, education, and schoolrelated business and operations. The Internet represents a potential risk to all users, especially minors. For that reason, the following recommendations should be followed by all users to protect themselves and others: 1. Personal information such as complete names, addresses, telephone numbers and identifiable photos should remain confidential when communicating on the network. Students should never reveal such information without permission from their teacher and parent or guardian. No user may disclose, use, or disseminate personal identification information regarding minors without authorization. 2. Students should never make appointments to meet people in person whom they have contacted on the system without district and parent or guardian permission. 3. Students should notify their teacher or other adult whenever they come across information or messages they deem dangerous or inappropriate on the web or when using electronic mail, chat rooms, instant messaging, or other forms of direct electronic communications. The NSDNet is the property of Northshore School District and is to be used for academic or administrative purposes only. The district reserves the right to remove a user’s account if it is determined that the user is engaged in unauthorized activity or is violating this code of conduct.

Gives credit for borrowed ideas and information. 2. Uses citation and documentation formats appropriate to task and project. 3. Respects principles of intellectual property and avoids plagiarism. 4. Respects rights and privacy of others especially electronic technologies. WHAT IS PLAGIARISM? Plagiarism is the act of presenting the words, ideas, images, sounds, or the creative expressions of others as your own. INTENTIONAL: UNINTENTIONAL: Copying someone else’s work Buying/borrowing/downloading a paper Cutting and pasting blocks of text from electronic sources without documenting Media “borrowing” without documentation (images, sounds, video) Careless paraphrasing Poor documentation Quoting excessively Not correctly using internal citations Failure to use your own “voice” 4 You can “borrow” from the work of others; you just need to give credit to the original author. WHAT CAUSES PLAGIARISM: Poorly taken notes. Procrastination - Not allowing yourself enough time to do solid research. Not understanding the written material. Cutting and pasting blocks of text from electronic sources without documenting. The attitude: “It seems important. I’ll just copy it and change a few words, so it will sound like I thought of it.” HOW TO AVOID PLAGIARISM: • • • • • Take notes from several different sources, keeping track of which source each piece of information came from (use a resource log or noodletools.com). Understand the material before you begin writing. Use the Cornell or IHS “Box Method” note-taking forms available in the Library (write key information – use bullets, not full sentences). Or use noodletools.com Notecards Use successful note-taking techniques: direct quotes, paraphrasing, summarizing Learn how to cite your sources correctly and understand internal citations. Use the citation format pages here in this planner and COME GET SOME FABULOUS SUPPORT IN THE LIBRARY! CONSEQUENCES FOR PLAGIARIZING: Please refer to “Educational Honesty” pages (35 and 36) in this planner. Inglemoor utilizes “turnitin.com” to help teach and reinforce correct academic attribution.

English.............................3 years.........3.0 credits Math.................................3 years.........3.0 credits Science..............................2 years.........2.0 credits Social Studies..................3 years.........3.0 credits Fine Arts..........................1 year...........1.0 credit Health/Fitness........................2 years......2.0 credits Occuaptional Ed.....................1 year........1.0 credit Electives — Grades 9 - 12........................6.0 credits Total........................................................21.00 credits Notes: • Class of 2014 and 2015 must complete 3 years math through Algebra II (college prep) or CTE Math (non-college prep). Colleges/Universities require math through Algebra II or Integrated Math III as part of the three-year math requirement. However, we recommend math through Intermediate Algebra or Math Analysis (Pre-Calculus) to be prepared for four-year university/college and community college level math. • High school graduation requires 1 year physical science and 1 year biology. For college entrance in the State of Washington, two credits of laboratory science, including one credit of algebra-based biology, chemistry, or physics, will be required. Western Washington University specifies the algebra-based science course must be chemistry or physics. • Included in the Social Studies credit requirement, a student must specifically complete a year of Senior Social Studies, a year of U.S. History, and a semester of Washington State History. World History will be required for Class of 2014 and beyond. WA State History for 2014 and beyond will be completed in 7th or 8th grade and will be a graduation requirement not a credit requirement. • Fine Arts courses include Art, Music, Drama, Annual, Tech Theater and Video/Film. Fine Arts is called The Arts starting with Class of 2014. • Occupational Education credit available for Family and Consumer Science courses, Business Technology courses, Video/Film, Digital Photography, Tech Theater, ASB Officer class, Peer Coaching, Library Research Assistant, American Sign Language, and Career & Technical Education (CTE) courses. • Life Fitness and Health cannot be waived with sports waivers or course exemptions. • Colleges/universities require two years minimum of the same world language for entrance. If you have questions, contact your college of choice. • Additional graduation requirements: pass state assessments, Culminating Project, and High School and Beyond Plan starting in grade 8 that continues through grade 12 as required by state law. Information for the Classes of 2016 and beyond can be found on page 26. Senior Year Seniors must maintain a minimum of five (5) academic classes and attend those classes daily for the entire year — both fall and spring semesters. If this requirement is not met, students may not participate in school-sponsored graduation activities (commencement ceremony, awards assembly, senior breakfast, etc.). Senior Running Start students are required to participate throughout the entire academic school year (September through June / three quarters) and maintain the equivalent of a full-time FTE in order to participate in school-sponsored graduation activities (commencement ceremony, awards assembly, senior breakfast, etc.). The College/University-bound Student College-bound students are encouraged to take more math, science, and world language than is required for basic college admission requirements in order to be competitive. Students are encouraged to access college information/ applications on the internet or directly contact the admissions office of the school(s) of interest. Look closely at college admission requirements for specific courses needed for college application (i.e., University of California fine arts requirement, Western Washington University science requirement). Adjust IHS senior courses as needed. See the table on the next page. The Senior Handbook is available at http://schoolcenter.nsd.org. Class Standing Class Standing is based on credits earned: 5 credits to be a sophomore, 10 credits to be a junior, 15 credits to be a senior. A minimum of 21.00 credits are required to graduate. Students must meet the graduation requirements of their “Class of” designation, as assigned in grade 9. This is never altered regardless of the year of actual graduation (i.e., early or late completion of graduation requirements).

Students who earn a graduation requirement credit through a CTE course determined (by the Instructional Support Department) to be equivalent to a non-CTE course shall not be required to earn a second credit in the non-CTE graduation requirement course. Students would also not be required to earn a second credit in the CTE course. The one CTE course would meet two diploma requirements; however, only one credit would be awarded. The second credit becomes an elective credit. Students who earn a graduation requirement credit through a non-CTE course determined (by the Instructional Support Department) to be equivalent to a CTE course shall not be required to earn a second credit in the CTE graduation requirement course. Students would also not be required to earn a second credit in the CTE course. The single non-CTE course would meet two diploma requirements; however, only one credit would be awarded. The second credit becomes an elective credit. To preserve the integrity of the Northshore School District graduation requirements, fifty percent of the graduation credit requirement in any discipline must be earned in a regularly scheduled high school course of study; students may earn no more than two credits or four semesters from outside sources to receive a Northshore School District comprehensive high school diploma. Page 26 ◆ IHS Grade scale: A = 4.0 A- = 3.7 Grading Policy B+ = 3.3 B = 3.0 Percent (%) grading scale: A = 94 - 100 B+ = 87 - 89 A- = 90 - 93 B = 84 - 86 B- = 2.7 C+ = 2.3 C = 2.0 C- = 1.7 D+ = 1.3 D = 1.0 F = 0.0 P = Pass B- = 80 - 83 C+ = 77 - 79 C = 74 - 76 C- = 70 - 73 D+ = 67 - 69 D = 60 - 66 F = 0 - 59 Each student’s grade point average is the sum of the point values, as defined above, of all the grades received for all courses attempted, divided by the sum of the credits for all courses attempted. Exceptions Teacher Assistant and Office Assistant positions will be graded Pass (P) or No Credit (NC) and are elective credits. Progress Reports Parent/guardians may check their student’s progress in class through Parent Assistant, located on the IHS web site under “Parent Connection.” Parents/guardians are required to come in person to the IHS Attendance Office with picture ID to obtain their user name and password. Mid-term progress reports are issued in the middle of each semester and mailed to all students. These grades are for information only. Senior year mid-term grades may be used as part of the college admission process, even though credits are not posted to transcript. Semester report cards are issued twice a year and are mailed to all students. Semester grades are posted to transcript. Repeating Courses/Replacing Grades The lowest mark/grade for a class/course taken more than once to improve a mark/grade shall be excluded from the calculation of grade point averages. The original course and grade remain on the transcript but credit earned is 0.00 and is not calculated into the GPA. Excluded are recurring courses such as those taken by a student to further develop their understanding and skills in the subject (e.g., art classes) or those taken by a student more than once to satisfy different credit requirements (e.g., video production). See your counselor to confirm that class/course qualifies and for appropriate paperwork. Seven Periods The regular high school day encompasses six periods. Inglemoor High School students, who audition and are chosen for a select music group such as Jazz Band/Choir, musical theatre or tech theatre, may enroll in this course as their seventh class. Full IB diploma students may need to take a seventh class in their junior and/or senior years in order to participate in a select music group, ASB, annual, Intro to Robics, or newspaper. In order to register for a seventh class, students need to complete and application and return it to their counselor for approval by the counseling staff and administration. Weighted Class Rank A weighted class rank system is intended to recognize students who take more rigorous academic courses. Class rank is an indicator requested by most colleges and universities, scholarship programs, and some employers. Challenge points are applied to the top six (6) courses in a semester as determined by the weighting factors and the student’s grade in the course, grades 10 to 12. A student must earn a “C-” or better to receive the challenge points. The total number of challenge points will then be added to the grade point total. This numerical value will be used to determine the student’s weighted rank in class. Weighted class rank is run at the end of the second semester junior year, mid-October senior year, and at the end of first and second semesters senior year. The weighted ranking process will not affect the GPA’s. The highest attainable GPA is 4.0 (WAC 180-57-050). Valedictorian(s) and Salutatorian(s) are based on first semester senior year cumulative GPA and unweighted rank only. Page 27 ◆ IHS Dual Credit Programs Dual Credit programs allow students to take rigorous college-level courses while still in high school. Students may become eligible for the awarding of college credit based on scores obtained in the year-end examinations and through taking college-level classes either in their high school or at colleges and universities. Programs Allowing Dual Credit Through Standardized Examinations • Advanced Placement (AP) • International Baccalaureate (IB) Programs Allowing Dual Credit Through College Course Enrollment • Career and Technical Education (CTE) • Running Start • Tech Prep Advanced Placement (AP) Classes AP classes are aimed at the student who would like to get a head start in college level courses. The classes are recognized by more than 3,600 colleges and universities, and 90 percent of four-year colleges in the U.S. provide credit and/or advanced placement for qualifying scores. Students can take AP Statistics, English Literature and Composition, English Language and Composition, U.S. History, and U.S. Government and Politics. In addition, the IB Calculus course will prepare students to take the AP Calculus AB test, and the IB Math HL course will prepare students to take the AP Calculus BC test. These classes will also meet district and state requirements for high school credit. Upon completion of the class, students take an exam. With a qualifying score, students will receive college credit or be allowed to take advanced college courses at the receiving college/university. The AP classes are a rigorous course of study for motivated students who would like to earn college credit in the high school and develop the study habits necessary for success in higher-level learning. Career and College Readiness (C&CR) Inglemoor is one of thirty local high schools who have agreed to share some of their professional/technical courses with students from neighboring districts. The cooperative provides an extension of each district’s high school curriculum. Participating students spend a portion of the school day in their present high school and another portion in the neighboring district’s high school accessing the latest technology and the expertise of many professionals. International Baccalaureate Program (IB) International Baccalaureate (IB) is a challenging program of study offered in the Northshore School District at Inglemoor High School. IB is a two-year curriculum for the junior and senior years, with pre-IB classes in 10th grade. The three categories of participation are: IB Full Diploma Student of Distinction; IB Certificate of Merit Student; and, IB Certificate Student. Running Start High School juniors and seniors have the opportunity to attend community college and receive high school and college credit at the same time. The student must first take a placement examination at a community college to qualify for college-level courses. For more information on course work and required placement exam, contact the local community college or your counselor. • Students are required to participate throughout the entire academic school year (September through June/three quarters) and maintain the equivalent of a full-time FTE in order to participate in school-sponsored graduation activities (commencement ceremony, awards assembly, senior breakfast, etc.). • Running Start students are responsible to keep current with the Inglemoor calendar and all due dates. Up-to-date information is always on the Inglemoor web site (ihsweb.nsd.org). Additional updated information is available on the Northshore School District web site: http//www.nsd.org Tech Prep Tech Prep students earn college credit without leaving their high school campus and without any tuition, book, or supply fees. Courses for which Tech Prep credit can be earned meet the occupational requirement for graduation. A complete listing of Tech Prep courses is available in the IHS Course Description Book published in spring with registration materials. Page 28 ◆ IHS General Information Career Guidance and Resource Center Adjacent to the Counseling Center is the Career Resource Center which offers information on career options, college catalogs, vocational technical sources, and military opportunities. Inglemoor High School has a comprehensive career guidance program serving all students. School-wide activities, field trips, classroom curriculum, and guest speakers all provide opportunities for students to prepare for post-high school plans. Mary Buckner — Career Counselor, (425) 408-7228 Career and Technical Education IHS students have the opportunity to participate in several occupational education programs at local area schools. Students spend a portion of their school day on another high school campus accessing courses that are high tech, prepare for employment, and offer advanced training. A complete list of courses available can be found in the Course Description Book or in the Career Center. Changes in Student Enrollment Information All address changes, telephone numbers, place of employment, emergency contacts, doctors, and other pertinent information should be reported by a parent or guardian directly to the IHS Attendance Secretary, at (425) 408-7210.

Fines and Fees In accordance with State law, the school district will provide students with the materials and supplies necessary to learn the basic skills taught in their classes. However, many students desire to extend their creativity and educational experiences beyond the basics and many students wish to keep the projects they make in school. Int these cases, special materials may be purchased at school (project purchase fee), when available, or brought from home or other sources, RCW 28A.120 allows the schools to hold grades, diplomas, caps and gowns, yearbooks, and transcripts of students who deface, destroy, lose, or otherwise injure any school property. If a student has a fine and does not pay the fine by the end of the semester or year, the grades and yearbook shall be held, parking privileges will be denied, and participation in optional activities will be denied. Students with outstanding fines/fees will not be eligible to purchase a parking space, nor will they be able to participate on school athletic teams. The fines are cumulative and shall be passed on from one school year to the next until the fine(s) is/are paid. Fines/fees must be cleared before doing the following: • • • • • • Purchase an Inglemoor HS parking tag Purchase dange tickets Yearbook will be held Diploma will be held Transcript will be held No final report card • • • • • Purchase Senior Prom tickets Purchase Senior Breakfast tickets Pick up graduation announcements Pick up cap and gown Buy additional graduation tickets Fines come in daily, so a student’s status can change at any time. School District Policy 3520, and State law, require that due process be afforded each student upon imposition of a fine. All accrued fines and fees must be cleared with Peggy Maillet, ASB Secretary. (continued on the next page) Page 29 ◆ IHS Homework for Extended Absences Some teachers post homework assignments on their web page. Please check there before making a homework request. Homework assignments may be requested from the Attendance Office, (425) 408-7210, if your student has been absent for three or more days. 24 hours notice is required to gather homework assignments. King County Resource Officers King County Resource Officers are on campus regularly. These officers not only build positive relationships with students, but they occasionally teach in addition to helping maintain a safe environment. The King County Sheriff/ Kenmore Police Officers will be involved in school investigations involving illegal activities. The Northshore School District will randomly conduct illegal substance searches with the assistance of the King County Sheriff/ Kenmore Police Departments and their canine units. Lockers Lockers will be assigned to students according to need. Applications are available at the Back-to-School Fairs and in the Main Office. It is the student’s responsibility to see that the locker is kept locked at all times. Students are expected to keep their lockers in good, usable condition. Lockers are school district property and are subject to general search at any time. Inglemoor High School and the Northshore School District will assume no responsibility for any lost or stolen valuables. Pre-College Testing 1. PSAT/NMSQT — The Preliminary Scholastic Assessment Test/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test will be given at school to all Juniors and Sophomores to help them prepare for the SAT. The test measures a student’s knowledge of reading, writing, and math assessment. 2. SAT — The Scholastic Assessment Test stands as a requirement for entrance to some four-year institutions. There are several test dates and certain schools are designated as test centers. This is an online registration. Forms are available in the Counseling/Career Center or via the internet. 3. ACT — The American College Test is the other choice students have as a required test for entrance to a fouryear institution. Like the SAT, there are several test dates. The test measures a student’s knowledge of standard written English, math, reading and science reasoning. Forms are available in the Counseling/Career Center or via the internet. Schedule Changes Schedule changes may be made on a limited basis for the following reasons: 2. A student does not have the skills to continue in a year-long class. 1. A graduation requirement must be added. 3. Administrative withdrawal is requested. Semester course changes may be allowed within the first five (5) days of a term without penalty. Changes after the fifth day may be considered when extenuating circumstances exist. After the tenth (10th) day, courses dropped will be graded “F.” Year-long classes will not be dropped at any time during the year unless there are extenuating circumstances approved by the principal. Full-year classes are exactly that: Full Year. Students will not be granted permission to withdraw from a class unless they do not have the skills to continue. The student must attend summer school or make an alternative arrangement in order to meet graduation requirements. School Dances School dances are held in either the school cafeteria or the gym. The Homecoming dance and Senior Prom are held off campus. Students planning to attend a school dance should be aware of the school dance policies. 1. School dances are limited to Inglemoor students and their invited/approved guests. All students, including invited/approved guests, must have a completed dance contract on file before they may attend an Inglemoor HS sponsored dance. There is a $5 guest pass fee in addition to the cost of the dance ticket. 2. IHS students may bring no more than one guest per person. The host student shall be responsible for the behavior of the guest. Guest passes/sign in must be arranged before the dance. All guests must be at least IN or COMPLETED ninth grade. Ninth-grade students have an 11:00 p.m. curfew. Ninth-graders and their Inglemoor escort must leave the dance at 11:00 p.m. All guests must be NO older than 21 years of age. Students attending college/community college or in the work force must attach a copy of their driving's license to their Guest Dance Contract. Page 30 ◆ IHS 3. Every IHS student must have a photo ID card to attend the dance. Invited/approved guests must also show their photo ID when entering the dance. 4. All school/district rules apply. Freak dancing, sexually explicit dancing or "moshing” are not allowed. (See Dance Behavior on page 36.) 5. Students who choose to ignore any of the rules will be asked to leave the dance. 6. Students leaving early for any reason may not re-enter the dance. 7. If a student's dance tickets are placed on “will call” and the tickets are picked up after the final date to purchase tickets (as announced through GMI’s scrolling bulletin and on the Inglemoor web site), the student will be subject to a $5 ticket late fee. School Medication Policy If your student will be taking any medication at school, you must confer with the school nurse. The Northshore School District recommends that medication be taken at home whenever possible. We recognize, however, that in some cases it is essential that medication be administered during the school day. For the protection of all the students and to comply with Washington state law, the district has a policy and procedures in place for the handling of ALL medications in the schools. For school events that occur outside of school hours, (e.g. extended field trips and athletic events) parents/guardians are responsible for providing all medications. Please do not pur any kind of medicine, including aspirin, vitamins, and cough drops in your child’s lunch box, backpack, or pockets. Unidentified medicine can never be given at school. Medication at School — School Staff Administration — The following conditions must be met: 1. All medications, whether over-the-counter or prescription, need a current Northshore Medication Authorization Form signed by the student’s physician/dentist and parent/guardian. 2. Medication must be delivered to the school in a properly labeled prescription or original over-the-counter container. The student’s name must be on the label with proper identification of the drug, dosage, and direc 3. A quantity sufficient for one month only can be sent to school. 4. The medication order is effective for the current school year only. 5. If changes in the medication order occur, the parent is responsible for notifying the school and providing verification from the physician/dentist. Field Trips: For students on daily medication, request an extra empty bottle from your pharmacy that can be used for field trips. Children with Life-Threatening Conditions In order to provide a safe learning environment, the legislature of the State of Washington has passed a requirement for children with life-threatening conditions. (Chapter 101, Laws of 2002, amending Chapter 28A.210 RCW) Effective June 13, 2002, the attendance of a child with a life threatening condition at a Washington public school shall be dependent upon receiving medication or treatment orders before or on the child’s first day of attendance at school. The law defines life-threatening condition as “a health condition that will put the child in danger of death during the school day if a medication or treatment order and a nursing plan are not in place.” Children with lifethreatening conditions such as severe bee sting or food allergies, severe asthma, unstable diabetes, severe seizures, etc., are now required to have a medication or treatment order in place before they start school. Students with a life-threatening condition qualify for a 504 Accommodation/Emergency Care Plan. “Medication or treatment order” means the authority a registered nurse obtains under RCW 18.79.260(2). This is covered when the child’s licensed health care provider completes the Authorization for Medication form or treatment order for medical services to be performed at the school. If a medication or treatment order is not provided, the principal of the school is required to exclude the child until an order is provided. This requirement applies to students with life-threatening conditions who are new to the district, and students who are already attending the school. Our exclusion procedures are in accordance with the rules (WACs) of the State Board of Education. It is vital to your child’s safety during the school day that if your child has a life-threatening health condition requiring medical services at school, you immediately notify your school nurse. The necessary forms will be provided and a time will be arranged for you to meet with your child's school nurse. Please contact the school nurse if you have any questions or would like further clarification. (NSD/Health Services) (continued on the next page) Page 31 ◆ IHS Student Grades and Transcripts Any questions about or requests for copies of student grades should be directed to Bev Edmon, (425) 408-7219. Student Information Most information about Northshore School District students cannot be made public without consent of parents or guardians. Federal law prohibits schools from releasing information without permission, except for what is termed “directory information.” Directory information about students may be released by the district without parental consent, according to the federal Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974. The school district will not release directory information for commercial purposes. Directory information is defined as the student’s name, address, telephone number, date and place of birth, major field of study, dates of enrollment, photographs, most recent school attended, diplomas and awards, participation in officially recognized activities and sports, and weight and height of athletes. All students shall have their picture taken for their ASB Card or their student ID Card which shall be carried at all school-related activities. Photos of students are sometimes used in district or school-produced publications or for use by the news media. The district takes special care not to identify the photographed students by name or by the school they attend in most cases. However, published photos in yearbooks, student/school newspapers, school handbooks, etc., are considered public domain and can be reproduced by the media. Parents/guardians who do not want this directory information or photographs released must notify the school principal IN WRITING by October 1. The “Request to Prevent Disclosure of Directory Information” form may be found on the Northshore School District web site (www.nsd.org). Student Records Northshore School District has a policy to safeguard student records from unauthorized use and disposition. Copies are available upon request. In compliance with Title IX and HB 413, we will publish information such as honor rolls, and club and team rosters. Summer School Student who need to make up credits in order to graduate with their class are encouraged to consider summer school through the Northshore Summer School Program. Information is available from the district website (http://www.nsd.org) or Counseling Office in May. Volunteer Registration The Northshore School District requires all persons volunteering to work in any capacity with our Inglemoor students to complete the district's volunteer packet of information and turn it into the Main Office prior to taking part in any activities with our students. The volunteer packets are available in the Main Office or on our web site. The WATCH background checks are good for two years. Voter Registration Voter registration may be done online. Go to www.sos.wa.gov/elections. Washington School Immunization Law For the protection of your child, the Washington School Immunization Law requires that your child be properly immunized in order to register for school. This must be done on or before the first day of school. School attendance will be denied all students not in compliance with the immunization law. Non-Discrimination Statement The Northshore School District prohibits discrimination on the basis of age, sex, marital status, genetic information, sexual orientation including gender expression or identity, race, creed, religion, color, national origin, honorably discharged veteran or military status, or the presence of any sensory, mental, or physical disability or the use of a trained dog guide or service animal by a person with a disability, unless based upon a bona fide occupational qualification, in all its employment procedures, training, programs and activities and provides equal access to the Boy Scouts and other designated youth groups.

Page 32 ◆ IHS IHS Policies & Procedures Attendance Policy (updated Nov. 8, 2011) Inglemoor High School adheres to the Northshore policy of promoting the importance of regular school attendance as a fundamental means of encouraging achievement. Inglemoor High School has an attendance policy that assists students in meeting their school responsibilities. This policy seeks to accomplish four goals: 1. To encourage regular school attendance by students. 2. To clarify the importance of regular attendance in achieving class objectives. 3. To encourage teachers to develop lessons that make each instructional day important to the student. 4. To provide for continuity of learning, reinforcing needed skills as assessed by state-mandated testing. The Inglemoor High School attendance policy allows up to nine (9) excused absences per semester. PLEASE NOTE: IF A STUDENT ACCUMULATES TEN (10) OR MORE ABSENCES WHICH INCLUDES NO UNEXCUSED ABSENCES AFTER THE SECOND (2ND) INTERVENTION, HE/SHE MAY APPEAL FOR ELIGIBILITY TO RECEIVE THE GRADE AND CREDIT EARNED AT THE END OF THE SEMESTER. Students accumulating unexcused absences will be: 1st Intervention................................................................................ assigned four (4) hours of Saturday School 2nd Intervention..............................................................................................placed on an Attendance Contract 3rd and subsequent Interventions...........................assigned a failing grade/or a “No Credit” (N/C) grade Emphasis needs to be placed upon ensuring that all absences are excused and that they are excused in a timely fashion. Once they have returned to school, students have 48 hours to get their absences excused. However, parents are requested to contact the Attendance Office on the day the student is absent from school. All absences not reported to the Attendance Office, on a daily basis, will result in contact by our phone robot. Also, please understand that according to district policy, no student will be allowed to write his/her own absence notes while attending Inglemoor High School. Submitting a note to the Attendance Office, signed by a parent/ guardian, or a telephone call to the Attendance Office (425) 408-7210, is required in order to excuse an absence. A reason for the absence must be stated on the excuse. ADDITIONALLY, STUDENTS MUST SIGN-IN AT THE ATTENDANCE OFFICE IF THEY ARE LATE TO SCHOOL AND SIGN-OUT AT THE ATTENDANCE OFFICE IF THEY MUST LEAVE SCHOOL EARLY. FAILURE TO DO SO WILL RESULT IN UNEXCUSED ABSENCES RECORDED ON THE STUDENT’S ATTENDANCE RECORD AND DISCIPLINARY SANCTIONS MAY ALSO BE IMPOSED TO INCLUDE SATURDAY SCHOOL AND/OR SUSPENSION. The first time a student accumulates five (5) absences in one or more classes, the Attendance Office will mail home “Attendance Confirmation Letters.” A final “Attendance Confirmation Letter” will be sent when a student misses seven (7) days in one or more classes. In most cases, parents/guardians will already be aware of the absences and no further dialog need occur. Our telephone robot caller will try to call the listed home phone number and alert the home of an absence when that absence has not yet been excused. Our office will mail home a “Loss of Credit” notice if and when a student attains ten (10) absences or three (3) interventions. At the end of the semester, your student will receive an “F” (failing) grade or a “NC” (no credit) for the affected class(es) depending on whether or not he/she satisfactorily completed the class work with a “D” grade or higher. We recognize there are many reasons for a student missing school, but students can only maximize their educational experience by being in attendance. Please avoid family trips, vacations, appointments, etc., while school is in session as we are trying to reinforce the importance of regular and consistent attendance. We appreciate parent understanding and support in notifying the Attendance Office when a student is absent. Students or parents may at any time request a copy of the attendance profile, which identifies the dates and periods a student has missed school. This profile also indicates whether or not an absence has been excused. School attendance has been and continues to be compulsory. The intent of state legislation (the Becca Bill) directs schools to initiate a series of corrective steps when a student is absent and unexcused. After the seventh (7th) fullday unexcused absence within a month or the tenth (10th) full-day unexcused absence during the school year, the school district is mandated to file a petition with the Juvenile Court alleging a compulsory attendance violation. Attendance — Early Dismissals Early dismissals must be arranged prior to the absence. The Attendance Office will not issue admit slips “after the fact.” LEAVING CAMPUS WITHOUT PERMISSION WILL NOT BE EXCUSED. Saturday School will be given to students who leave campus without permission. On days when there is a PM Assembly, early dismissals will be issued — with standard parent permission — ONLY until the end of the last lunch. No dismissals will be given out after the end of the last lunch. No early dismissals will be given on AM Assembly days. (continued on the next page) Page 33 ◆ IHS Attendance — Make-up for Excused Absences Make-up work will be allowed. The student will be responsible for all make-up arrangements. In the case of extended absences, work will be requested through the Attendance Office, completed, and returned to the teachers within the same amount of time as the absence. (Example: If you are absent three school days, you will have three school days to complete the make up work.) Staff members are not obligated to provide tests, assignments, or reports if the absence is excused. Appropriate Behavior / Affection Overt and inappropriate displays of affection on campus and at school functions is not permitted. Students will accrue progressive discipline for violations. Assemblies Assemblies are part of the regular school day. Attendance is expected; hourly make-up will be assigned to those students not in attendance who are unexcused. Students wishing to be excused from an assembly must have a note or phone call logged in by the Attendance Office no later than the end of your assigned lunch on the day of the assembly. All students will leave their backpacks in their third (3rd) or sixth (6th) period classes. Consideration will be made for students in portables. Behaviors at School Events Students of IHS are expected to model appropriate behaviors any time they represent our school at home or away athletic contests, field trips, school-sponsored events, etc. All school rules apply during any supervised event occurring during regular school hours and outside the school day which involves Inglemoor students. KingCo and WIAA rules: • Artificial noisemakers such as airhorns or megaphones are not permitted. • Objects such as paper airplanes, nerf balls, beach balls, coins, or other projectiles are not to be brought to contests. • Confetti, streamers, toilet paper, and/or silly string are not permitted and their use may cause the non-complying school to pay for the additional cost of clean-up. • The dress code for the regular school day applies — specifically, there are to be no bare chests. • Signs or banners, other than official school banners/flag, are not permitted. • Vulgar, obscene, or suggestive yells are not acceptable and can result in removal from the event. • Moshing, pushing, throwing, or elevating other students is not permitted. • Please follow the directions and the cheers of the cheerleaders. • Be respectful and supportive of both teams involved in the contest. • Respond positively to the adults who are supervising the contest if you are asked to do something. • Remain off the playing field/surface/floor before, during, and especially after the contest. • Have a good time, but do not do anything that might compromise your safety or the safety of others at the contest. Cafeteria Food purchased in the cafeteria MUST be consumed in the cafeteria and the courtyard areas only. Students are responsible for clearing their garbage after eating/drinking in the cafeteria, and on other parts of the campus. Failure to do so will result in assigned campus clean-up. Continued failure to clear garbage may result in the loss of break/club meeting time. Areas of the campus that have been left with garbage may be restricted from student eating. Areas that are closed to students for eating are the main office, galleria, gym foyer, classroom hall areas, and in front of classrooms where classes are in session. Campus Security / Cameras Security cameras are in place to monitor common areas and parking lots for building security. The Inglemoor administration will involve the King County police in its investigations of all illegal activities. Page 34 ◆ IHS Cell Phone Cameras / Communication Devices Any inappropriate use of cameras or cell phone will result in confiscation, loss of the privilege to have one on campus, and the student will be disciplined accordingly. Instructional use is appropriate when requested by a staff member. In the classroom, absolutely no cellular phones or other communication devices are to be used or activated during instructional periods, assemblies, GMI, and Club/Study time. Students are permitted to use communication devices during break, lunch, and passing periods ONLY. Discipline Steps for violations to Personal Technology (Cell phone, i-Pod, camera, other electronic device} used during classes time: 1st violation���������������������������������������upon teacher notification, the student will be assigned a one hour of afterschool detention by administration. 2nd violation ������������������������������������upon teacher notification, the student will be assigned a two-hour Saturday School by administration and parent notification. 3rd violation��������������������������������������upon teacher notification, administration will confiscate the personal technology device and release it to parent. The student will be assigned a four-hour Saturday School and will be forbidden to possess personal technology devices on the school campus for forty-five school days. Further violations would result in a short-term suspension Cheating (revised March 19, 2012) Inglemoor High School adheres to a philosophy of promoting honest and ethical behavior among its students. Cheating is unacceptable. The following policy becomes effective upon enrollment at Inglemoor and is cumulative until graduation. Cheating is defined as any attempt to present work as the student’s own when it is not. This includes the use of unauthorized materials. Students who allow their work to be copied will also be disciplined. • First offense will result in an assistant principal referral. A parent/teacher/student conference will be scheduled where the student will explain the circumstances contributing to the cheating offense, a loss of credit on the assignment/exam, and Saturday School. • Second offense, regardless of subject, will result in an assistant principal referral, and will include a parent conference, a loss of credit on the assignment/exam, and attending an eight-hour cheating intervention class. • Third offense, regardless of subject, will result in an assistant principal referral, and will include a parent conference, suspension, loss of credit for the class in question, and referral for counseling. • Fourth offense, regardless of subject, will result in an assistant principal referral, and will include a parent conference, loss of credit in all classes, and the student will audit their classes for the remainder of the semester. • Students who cheat are subject to a monetary fine for the extra time staff spends to research an incident. The fine will be placed into a curriculum budget. Further offenses will result in expulsion from Inglemoor High School. Academic Honesty A code of Academic Honesty, therefore, has been established for all students attending Inglemoor High School. Each student is expected to clearly understand and sign the Academic Honesty Code (found on page 2 of this handbook). A copy will then be kept on file during the student's time at Inglemoor. True education cultivates honor, honesty, character, and perseverance, along with the growth of knowledge and the development of thinking skills. Personal integrity determines our actions and influences every aspect of life. Authentic work is based on the student’s individual and original ideas with the ideas and work of others fully acknowledged. All assignments, written or oral, completed by a student for assessment and grading must use the student’s own language and expression. Sources used or referenced, whether in the form of direct quotation or paraphrase, must be fully and appropriately acknowledged. Understanding the meaning of academic honesty and applying it daily is of primary importance in the educational program of all students at Inglemoor High School. The following behaviors are dishonest and violate the Inglemoor High School Academic Honesty Code: • Plagiarism is the representation of the ideas of work of another person as the student’s own. This includes copying another person’s paper, report, lab book, or assignment in whole or in part and submitting it as one’s own. This can be intentional or the result of sloppy scholarship. A superficial change of wording, structure, or conclusion is not sufficient to turn aside the charge of plagiarism. (continued on the next page) Page 35 ◆ IHS • Collusion is supporting the lack of honesty by another student, as in allowing one’s work to be copied or submitted for assessment by another. Identical or highly similar passages of his or her own ideas and own expression of ideas unless you are directed by the teacher to work with others as a part of the assignment are considered an act of collusion. Ultimately, each individual’s work should be composed of his or her own ideas and own expression of those ideas. • Duplication of work is the presentation by two or more students of the same assignment, paper, project, or any other work for assessment. • Technology Malpractice is any misuse or abuse of technology including infractions of the school technology user agreement, language translation sites, cell phone messaging or picture transmission. Other examples of cheating might include, but are not limited to the following: • Using cheat sheets, looking at someone’s paper during an exam, using Cliff/Sparks Notes, or on-line sources. • Giving out questions that are on a test to other students • Giving answers to other students during a test or allowing them to copy your work • Exchanging old tests, reports, notebooks, or assignments. • Using electronic devices (e.g., cellular telephones, iPods, CDs, graphing calculators, PDAs, etc.) that can record/ transmit answers to or pictures of tests and assignments to self or others ... commonly referred to as podcasting. Closed Campus and School Boundaries A. Inglemoor High School is a closed campus during the scheduled school day. Students with late arrivals or early dismissals are to arrive no earlier than 10 minutes before their first scheduled class and leave campus within 10 minutes of the end of their last scheduled class. B. Students are not to be in any of the parking lots during the school day except when arriving or departing. (Violators will be disciplined and may lose their parking permit.) If a situation arises where a student needs to get an item from their vehicle, they will either need to let the Main Office staff know or get a pass from a staff member. C. All school rules apply while students are on any Northshore School District property, adjacent properties* to Inglemoor High School, or at a Northshore School District activity. * Adjacent properties are defined as areas that can be seen from the IHS campus. D. Students must remain within the perimeter of the buildings. School Boundaries: The following areas adjacent to Inglemoor High School are off limits during the school day: 88th NE from NE 150th to NE 163rd, the service road and housing area south of the campus known as “Amber Ridge,” the housing area directly north of our baseball and softball fields known as “The Park at Inglemoor.” Please be respectful of our neighbors. Inglemoor students are also not permitted to visit our neighboring schools without first gaining permission from the particular school. And finally, students must not “visit” their vehicle during breaks or lunch in the parking lots without receiving permission from a school official. E. Loitering: For safety reasons, the following areas are to be free from students loitering so that others may pass freely. During passing periods and lunch, students are prohibited from standing in congested areas such as the walkways between 900, 800, 700 wings, and in front of the cafeteria restrooms. Dance Behavior All Inglemoor High School students will be required to complete a dance contract prior to purchasing dance tickets. The dance contract is available in the Student Center. Guests to Inglemoor High School dances will be required to present a completed dance contract, signed by their administration, prior to purchasing dance tickets. Guests not in high school must also provide a copy of their driver’s license. Guest contracts are not kept on file. (Please see School Dances beginning on page 30 of this Student Handbook/Planner for additional details.) Deliveries Our administrative and counseling staff is always willing to deliver messages to students regarding family emergencies such as deaths, accidents, or severe illnesses. Other than these emergency situations, however, we are unable to deliver notes, flowers, balloons, or reminders to students for any other reason. Not only are the logistics of delivering messages and gifts a challenge in a school our size and the interruptions to class a detriment to the learning environment, there are also serious potential safety and security issues involved in delivering unverified information/packaging to our students. Please be certain that your son or daughter is aware, before coming to school, of any appointments for that day. It is a great lesson in personal responsibility for them and helps us to maintain a safe and productive educational environment for all of our students. Page 36 ◆ IHS Detention The following guidelines will be observed regarding detentions: Lunch Detention occurs last the ten (10) minutes of student’s lunch time (clean up) After School Detention .........................................................................One-hour detention If a student does not complete the first detention, the student will be referred to administration for a two (2)-hour Saturday School. If the student fails to complete the two (2)-hour Saturday School, the student will receive a three (3)-day suspension. Students have ONE opportunity to re-schedule a detention date. The change must take place BEFORE 1:00 p.m. on the day of the assigned detention. Dress Code Students will wear appropriate school attire, including shoes. Appropriate attire shall exclude any type of dress, apparel, manner of grooming displayed, reflected or participated in, which school officials reasonably believe would disrupt or interfere with the school environment, activities and/or educational process. School officials will work with students, parents, and teachers in communicating ongoing changes in apparel considered disruptive to the educational process, which includes but is not limited to the following. 1. A substantial disruption of the educational process may be found to exist when a student’s dress shows or displays undergarments, inadequately covers breasts, midriff, buttocks, or groin areas, displays obscene, sexual, drug or alcohol related messages, or gang-related apparel. 2. Any clothing that would create, in fact, an atmosphere in which a student, staff member, or other person’s well being is hindered by undue pressure, behavior, intimidation, overt gesture or threat of violence will not be allowed. This is two inches ▼ Neckline above armpits All shirts/tops must cover lower half of back. No more than 2" of midriff may be showing. Pants must be above line between tops of hipbones. Skirts and Shorts must reach fingertips. Shoes must be worn at all times. Shirts must be worn at all times. Shirt must cover underwear. Pants must be above the buttocks. Shoes must be worn at all times.

(continued on the next page) Men: Ladies and Men: Page 37 ◆ IHS Dress Code Guidelines (continued) Consequences: • First warning — change clothing, one-hour after-school detention, and parent notification. • Second warning — change clothing, parent notification, and Saturday School. • Third warning — student sent home, parent notification, and discipline. Electronic devices such as iPods, laptops, and tablets may not be used in the classroom unless permitted by the teacher. Electronic devices are not to be used in the computer labs. Equipment will be confiscated and given to the administrators when guidelines are not followed. The use of iPods, laptops, and tablets may not disrupt the learning environment or affect other students. Also, be aware that these items are among the most frequently stolen articles on campus — especially the iPods. Electronic Devices (other than cell phones) Field Usage Use of IHS fields by non-school district sports teams or by other activity groups during non-school hours is not permitted without a Northshore School District “user permit.” This permission may be acquired through the District’s Support Services Department. Fighting Students involved in a fight on campus will be receive an “Emergency Denial of Attendance” and the police will be notified. Fighting includes behaviors that provoke, instigate, and/or touch a student in anger resulting in a fight. Follow a Reasonable Request Students are required to follow all reasonable requests made by Inglemoor staff or Northshore School District employees. Food / Drink / Gum Food, drink, and gum are not permitted in the science rooms, the computer labs, the library, or the Little Theatre. Classroom “food, drink, and gum” policies will be established by individual classroom teachers and may range from none to water is allowed. Gambling / Gaming Any form of gambling is prohibited. Playing card games during the student lunch period is permissible. Card playing during Club/Study Time or instructional time is not permitted. Harassment, Intimidation, and Bullying Harassment, intimidation, and bullying mean any gesture or display, written, verbal, or physical act that is intended to inflict injury, violence, intimidation, humiliation, or a reasonable fear of the same. A threat of harm in any form directed to another person, student, or staff member is unacceptable behavior. When an incident of harassment, intimidation, or bullying is reported to a school staff member, an administrator will follow up on the report and verify that the behavior has occurred. Administrators will consider the surrounding circumstances, the nature of the behavior, the relationships between the parties involved and the context in which the alleged incidents occurred in their determination of the facts and disciplinary actions. (Please see the district’s Rights and Responsibilities Handbook for a more complete statement.) Hazing Hazing is the perceived pressuring of an individual to perform ridiculous and humiliating tasks and stunts. Hazing is illegal and absolutely forbidden in any form. Students participating in hazing activities will be subject to immediate discipline. Leaving a Classroom Leaving a classroom without teacher permission is not appropriate and disciplinary sanctions mayb be imposed and would include Saturday School or Suspension. Nuisance Items Laser Pointers Laser pointers are not allowed and could be classified as a dangerous weapon. Any laser pointer brought to school will be confiscated. Discipline may be assigned. Page 38 ◆ IHS Nuisance Items (continued) Skateboards, Water Projectory Systems, Pets Skates, roller blades, skateboards, go-carts, squirt guns, or pets are not permitted on school grounds. The items will be returned at the end of each semester. Pets must be removed from campus immediately. Parking Student parking is a privilege.

Students with outstanding fees or fines may not apply for a parking permit or participate in school athletics, activities, or compete in school-sponsored events. Students with outstanding fees and fines at the end of the semester will lose their parking privileges. Kenmore and King County Police often ticket vehicles improperly parked on streets surrounding the school. It’s important students know the laws governing the parking in and around Inglemoor High. Watch for the signage posted in various neighborhoods where No Parking Signs are posted. Searches [refer to the district’s “Concerning Pupil Conduct for Students and Employees” handbook] Law enforcement and/or school officials may perform searches. Searches shall utilize appropriate information collection processes. Such processes would include but not be limited to canine-assisted searches, video surveillance cameras, breath analyzers, any drug/alcohol detention devices, person and property searches. Snowballing There will be no snowballing on campus. Throwing of snowballs will result in discipline. Students shall be free from verbal, written, or physical acts of harassment, hostility, defamation, or intimidation in any form based upon national origin, race, religion, economic status, gender, sexual orientation, pregnancy, marital status, previous arrests, previous incarceration, or handicapping condition. Student Rights (continued on the next page) Page 39 ◆ IHS Staff and Student Rights Inglemoor High School is committed to a “safe and civil educational environment for all students, employees, volunteers, and patrons, free from harassment, intimidation, or bullying.” The policy, reflecting state law, defines harassment, intimidation, and bullying as any intentional written, verbal, or physical act motivated by characteristics such as race, color, religion, ancestry, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, or mental or physical disability which: • Results in physical harm or property to another student or staff member. • Substantially interferes with another student’s education. • Is so severe, persistent, or pervasive that it creates an intimidating or threatening educational environment. • Has the effect of substantially disrupting the orderly operation of the school.

Visitors Since Inglemoor High School has a closed campus, only students enrolled at Inglemoor are permitted on the campus during regular school hours. All adult visitors must immediately sign in to receive a mandatory I.D. Tag. Prospective students may tour the campus with the prior permission of the administration and teachers. The application to tour the campus must be completed and returned in advance of the guest's scheduled visitation. Weapons [refer to the district’s “Concerning Pupil Conduct for Students and Employees” handbook] It is a violation of Washington State Law for any student to carry onto school premises, school-provided transportation, school or District facilities any firearm, dangerous weapon, or look-alike weapon.
