Repeated offenders, caps will be held until the end of the year.

  11. Dress Code Cont: • Cell Phones and IPODS- Every classroom has their own policy whether they can be used or not. • If a teacher has a no cell phone/Ipod policy in their classroom, it is enforced. • Phone/Ipod are taken, detention is issued and parent must pick up phone after the detention is served. • Cell phones/Ipods are a huge distraction. Students bring cell phones at their own risk. The school is not responsible for stolen or lost cell phones. We will do our best to ensure that stolen property is investigated and make every attempt to retrieve it, however, it is not our first priority.

  12. Classwork and homework • Student planner: • Every student was given a student planner during registration. • The planner is designed to help the student get organized and to write down important dates and assignments. • Students should be using it to write down their homework assignments. • Great tool for you to see what is being done in the classroom. • If they are not using it, make them use it, make it an expectation at home.

  13. Community, School Involvement • Colleges and University accepting more well rounded students. • Grade Point Average is not the only factor that is looked at when accepting a student. • Community Service and School Involvement is critical and the sooner they get involved, the better. • Community parks, churches, homeless shelter etc. • Sports and Clubs on campus • Many, many clubs and sports to get involved in. • Football, volleyball, track and field, basketball, human relations club, key club, drama club, dance/ROP club, automotive club, French club etc.

  14. Drugs-Zero Tolerance • Drugs: Marijuana, Pills and Alcohol • Do we have a problem with drugs on our campus? • Do we have students that bring it onto our campus? • Any student that is caught under the influence of any controlled substance with be dealt with the full extent of the law and our district policies. • Any student caught with any type of drug in their possession (backpack even is the backpack belongs to a “friend”—if you are carrying it—it’s yours, lockers, the student will be arrested and prosecuted. • We have the full support of the Fountain Valley Police Department.

  15. Drugs cont: • Do not be alarmed—we don’t have students doing drugs in class, during passing period, all day, every day. • Our student body does not tolerate it either, most of our information comes from our own students • Lockers and backpacks. If drug paraphernalia is found in your students backpack or locker and if it is not theirs, unless the other student admits and takes ownership—the charges and consequence will fall on the student with the paraphernalia. • We cannot monitor it alone…we need your help.

  16. How to assist: • Check your son’s or daughter’s belongings. • Check their backpacks, their drawers, the cell phones, their notebooks, check everything. • Pictures or drawings of marijuana leaves, marijuana pipes, wrapping papers these are some signs that they may be using drugs. • Is your child sleeping all day long, tired, loss of appetite, increase in appetite, these are also signs. • Red eyes, dry mouth(cotton mouth), fingers smell of marijuana. • If in doubt—get them tested.
