Students may be subject to discipline for violation of the Code of Conduct/Student Discipline Code
even if that conduct occurs on property not owned or controlled by the Board but that is connected to
activities or incidents that have occurred on property owned or controlled by the Board, or conduct
that, regardless of where it occurs, is directed at a Board official or employee, or the property of
such official or employee.

Student conduct shall be governed by the rules and provisions of the Student Code of
Conduct/Student Discipline Code, Board Policy 5500.

All schools involved with the Six District Compact are an extension of our school program; therefore,
students who elect to attend Compact Program are subject to disciplinary action based upon the
Student Code of Conduct of all six schools. Consequently, conduct and/or involvement in any activity
that may or does result in disciplinary action by one school may be grounds for similar disciplinary
action by the other schools.
