HALLWAYS

Students will have sufficient passing time between classes.   If a student needs to be in the hallways during class time, he/she should be there for a valid purpose and should be prepared to justify that purpose.   Students abusing this privilege will not be allowed to leave the classroom during class time.

 

LOCKERS FOR PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND ATHLETICS

All large lockers in the boys’ and girls’ locker rooms will have combination locks on the doors.   Students who wish to use these lockers will have to rent the locks at a cost of $5.00.   At the end of the school year, if the locker is in good condition and the lock is returned, the student will be refunded $4.00.   Unless a student receives permission from an administrator, he/she is not allowed to provide their own lock.   Lockers are property of the school and can be searched at any time.

 

SCHOOL PURCHASES

All supplies purchased for an organization, club, or activity must be made on a school purchase order.   The purchase order must be approved by the administration and the signed order picked up by the sponsor of the organization.   Students wishing to purchase any items through the school must collect all the money and turn it into the office before a purchase order will be issued.

 

CLUBS

The Lakeview Board of Education endorses the creation of clubs related to the curriculum, for the purpose of reaching the interests of as many students as possible.   There are student leadership opportunities available in the following clubs and organizations: Senior Class, Junior Class, Sophomore Class, Freshmen Class, FFA, National Honor Society, Student Council, Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA), Newspaper Editors, Yearbook Editors, Cheerleading, Music, Language Club, Science Club, Speech & Drama, Fellowship of Christian Athletes, and Youth For Christ.

All student meetings or activities on school premises shall be permitted only upon permission from the Principal’s office indicating the date, time, and place of the meeting and an explanation of the meeting’s relevancy to the curriculum.

 

SEARCH AND SEIZURE

Student lockers are the property of Lakeview High School.   Designated officials may, according to law and board policy, have access to student lockers.   The decision to search shall be made by the principal or his delegate.   The search shall be made in the presence of at least one witness.   Discovery of illegal or dangerous materials shall be reported to the office of the superintendent and to the legal authorities.   With probable cause, designated officials may search any and all vehicles parked on school property.

 

VIDEO SURVEILLANCE

The use of video cameras in school hallways and the parking lot is to ensure the health, welfare, and safety of all staff, students, and visitors to the district and to safeguard facilities and equipment.   Recorded video images may be used by staff and law enforcement to assist in determining any violation of school policies/regulations or local, state, or federal laws.   Video recordings may become part of a student’s educational record.   The district shall comply with all applicable state and federal laws related to record maintenance and retention.
