What this document actually says
This policy, last revised June 3, 2025, establishes standards for student behavior in Reed Union School District. Students must conduct themselves appropriately on campus, traveling to/from school, at school activities, and on district transportation. Prohibited behaviors include violence, weapons possession, bullying, harassment, discrimination, disrupting class, defying staff authority, theft, vandalism, profanity, substance use, unauthorized phone use, cheating, dress code violations, and truancy. Staff must enforce these rules and intervene when violations occur. Schools can search students when there's reasonable suspicion of rule-breaking. Confiscated devices must be stored securely. Violations may result in suspension, expulsion, alternative program placement, counseling referrals, or loss of extracurricular privileges. Students can be disciplined for off-campus conduct that threatens safety or substantially disrupts school. Law enforcement will be notified when appropriate.
What this means for your family
Your child must follow clear behavior rules at school and school events. Violations—including bullying, phone misuse, defiance, or substance possession—can lead to suspension, expulsion, or loss of privileges. Schools can search your child's belongings with reasonable suspicion. You'll be notified of school-specific conduct standards. Off-campus behavior threatening school safety may also result in discipline. Parents may be liable for damages from willful misconduct.
