STUDENT CODE OF CONDUCT (5500)

A. conform to reasonable standards of behavior;

B. respect the rights, person and property of others;

C. preserve and maintain the degree of order necessary for a
positive climate for learning; and

D. acknowledge the authority of the staff of the Hudson City
Schools and respond appropriately to that authority.

The items in this code are applicable to all students when properly under the
authority of school personnel during a school activity, function, or event
whether on property owned, rented, or maintained by the Board of Education
or property owned, rented, or maintained by another party. The code is also
applicable to misconduct by a student that occurs off of property owned or
controlled by the District but that is connected to activities or incidents
