decoration may be considered vandalism and punishable by suspension. If permission has been obtained to decorate lockers, this must be done under proper supervision and completed before 8:00 p.m. Any interior decoration must be in moderation and good taste. Noncompliance will result in detentions. No lewd or suggestive pictures are permitted. All lockers decorations will be removed on Friday or the last school day of each week.
LOCKS AND LOCKERS
Lockers are selected by putting a blue school lock on the locker and recording the locker number with the Homeroom teacher. Students may not share lockers; one student per locker.
Only official school locks, which can be purchased in the Padua Bruin Shop, may be used on school lockers (including corridor lockers, gym lockers, and music lockers). Students may sell or pass their school locks to another student when they leave Padua. The Bruin Shop will not buy back used locks. These locks are the property of the student, although the school administration always retains the right of access by factory-issued passkey. Since lockers are the property of the school, the school administration can order a "locker check" or repair occupied lockers whenever this becomes necessary. All non-school locks will be immediately removed from school lockers.
If students choose not to lock their locker, the lock itself must be kept on the hook inside the locker; otherwise, it may cause the locker to jam.
Students should never tell their lock combination to anyone else. No student is ever allowed to open the locker of another student unless accompanied by one of the school's administrators.
Students are not allowed to change their lockers without the permission of the Assistant Principal of Men or Women.
The school is not responsible for any loss or damage to books or personal property. Therefore, articles of great value (e.g., jewelry, and electronic devices, etc.) should not be brought to school.
Locks should be kept securely locked at all times. Students are responsible for the upkeep and cleanliness of their lockers. No food or drink should be kept in the locker overnight. Lockers are not to be overstuffed or left open. Failure to comply could result in a detention.
LOST AND FOUND
Found articles should be brought to the Attendance Office, and lost articles should be claimed there. Found items not claimed within 10 days will be discarded.
