| Students' Responsibilities |  | RESPONSIBILITIES:
All
students are responsible for knowing and obeying all school policies,
rules and regulations. Students are responsible for the consequences of
their behavior.
Students are responsible for following all
procedures, rules, and regulations necessary to make effective the
Board of Education policies relating to the student standards of
conduct.
Principals shall be responsible for informing the
parent/guardian of any student whose behavior is in serious conflict
with established policies, rules, and procedures.
RESPONSIBILITY FOR ACADEMIC WORK
Students are responsible for completing class assignments on time and according to the instructions given by the teachers.
Instructional
materials are furnished by the Saint Paul Public Schools for student
use. Students are responsible for bringing to class all materials
required for daily classroom use.
RESPONSIBILITY REGARDING ATTENDANCE AND TARDINESS
Students
are responsible for being in attendance at the beginning of the school
day. Students arriving late are to report to the proper school
authorities, as designated by their local school rules.
If
absence from school is necessary because of illness or other legitimate
reasons, students are responsible for bringing a written excuse signed
by a parent or guardian upon return to school. Absence or tardiness of
students because of religious holidays and observances shall be
recorded as excused absences or tardiness at the written request of the
parent.
If students are to be excused before the end of the
day, they should bring a written request signed by a parent or guardian
to the school office, preferably upon arrival at school.
Sufficient
time is allowed between classes for students to arrive at the next
class on time. If a student is detained after class by a teacher, a
pass should be obtained from that teacher so that tardiness will be
excused in the next class.
During a class hour, students shall not leave a classroom without a pass from the teacher.
Under
no conditions shall a student leave school during the day without
permission of the school administration. A student leaving the building
may be requested by proper school authorities to show his/her “excuse
to leave the building” form.
RESPONSIBILITY FOR DISCIPLINE
Students
have the right to a free public education, but they are responsible for
complying with the rules and regulations of the school district and the
instructions of all school district personnel, and for accepting the
authority of the faculty and school district officials on school
property and at school-sponsored, off-campus activities. Failure to
meet these responsibilities will be cause for disciplinary action.
