Parental Involvement Policy

The goal of the Oxford School District is to encourage community and parent participation in the local school system in order to utilize talents, abilities, and resources to improve the quality of education and to assist in developing an awareness of and accountability for school issues.

It is the intention of the district and schools, through the Parental Involvement Policy and the School-wide Parental Involvement Plans, to assist parents in facilitating the highest possible learning standards for their student(s) as well as assist parents in forming supportive working relationships with administrators, teachers, and other school staff.

Individual school activities for parental involvement are coordinated and implemented according to the policies and objectives outlined below. Each school is required to develop an annual school-level parental involvement plan that will describe planned activities and provide for the subsequent evaluation of the effectiveness of the activities.

The Parental Involvement Policy will be reviewed each year to offer parents an opportunity to provide input concerning issues and activities on both a school level and district-wide level.

Principal’s Message

Greetings Parents and Students: I would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to the 2015 – 2016 school year. We are anxiously looking forward to all of the incredible opportunities that will be available to make an enormous difference and impact in our students’ lives. We look forward to embracing our partnership with you in an effort to help ensure that this year will be productive and academically rewarding. We value this opportunity to help our students maximize their learning potential. As always, we stand ready to assist our students, whether it entails successfully regaining credits, offering flexible scheduling and on-line learning opportunities we also provide students a smaller learning environment in which to experience success. We also look forward to serving that group of students who need additional supports and skills to overcome barriers that often impede their ability and desire to learn in traditional settings. We have many programs set in place to assist our students to be productive citizens. The purpose of this handbook is to acquaint you with the Oxford Learning Center and answer questions you may have about our procedures and policies that are specific to this school. Located in the office is an Oxford School District Board Policy Manual and a Student Code of Conduct that is available for review should you have any questions that this handbook does not answer, as it is not all inclusive. We ask that you review this handbook as well as the Code of Conduct with your child and keep for reference should the need arise. On behalf of the staff and faculty of the Oxford Learning Center, we welcome you to this fresh opportunity for personal and academic growth. It is our goal to provide you and your child a most productive and enriching year. Please note that your involvement and input are always valued Respectfully submitted, Kathy Howington Kathy Howington Principal

Oxford Learning Center’s Student Handbook Student Information ABSENCES A student who will be absent for two consecutive school days may request his/her assignment by calling the secretary in the office at 662-234-3588. Please call before 9:00 AM in order for assignments and materials to be gathered by the end of the day. Teachers will have those assignments in the front office by 3:05 PM. When a student returns to school, he/she must check into the office with a written excuse. The secretary will give the student an admittance slip and all excuses will be kept on file in the front office.

Family or organized trips (i.e., non-school-related, vacations, reunions, business trips) that cause a student’s absences or to exceed three (3) school days absent in a grading period are not considered excused absences. When claiming the death of a family member as an excused absence, the family member must be a close family member: father, mother, sister, brother, legal guardian, legal foster parent, grandparent, step-father, step-mother, step-sister, step-brother. The following are reasons for excused absences: doctor’s or dentist’s appointments, documented legal reason, death or serious illness in the immediate family, observance of religious event, injury or physical illness, and authorized school activity. Acceptable written documentation will be required and will be subject to approval by the principal who may require additional substantiation or verification. Acceptable written documentation for absences described above must be provided to the office within three days after the student returns to school.

School is required by law to report excessive absences to the State Attendance Officer. On the fifth (5th) unexcused

absence per class period in a grading period, a letter will be sent to the Mississippi Office of Compulsory School Attendance and Enrollment and to the parent/guardian. Twelve (12) unexcused absences in a school year can result in charges being filed against a parent/guardian for educational neglect and/or truancy charges against the student. All daily work missed as a result of either excused or unexcused absences must be made up in direct proportion to days out (3 days out, 3 days to make up). A student’s absence does not count towards a student’s successful days. ACCEPTABLE USE POLICY

���IJBB - Responsible Use of Technology

Staff and/or Student Responsible Use Agreement for Use of Internet, Computer Equipment and other Technology at Oxford School District

Oxford School District (OSD) recognizes that access to technology in school gives students greater opportunities to learn, engage, communicate, and develop skills that will prepare them for work, life, and citizenship. We are committed to helping students develop progressive technology and communication skills.

OSD is committed to providing educational opportunities for all students and maintains compliance with the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act 2004 (20 U.S.C. 1400 et seq.).

To that end, we provide the privilege of access to technologies for student and staff use.

This Responsible Use Policy outlines the guidelines and behaviors that all users are expected to follow when using school technologies or when using personally-owned devices on the school campus, including:

The Oxford School District network is intended for educational purposes; all activity over the network or using district technologies may be monitored, documented and retained; access to online content via the network may

11

be restricted in accordance with our policies and federal regulations, such as the Children's Internet Protection Act (CIPA); students are expected to follow the same rules for good behavior and respectful conduct online as offline; misuse of school resources can result in disciplinary action; using an internet filter and other technologies, OSD makes a reasonable effort to ensure students' safety and security online but will not be held accountable for any harm or damages that result from use of school technologies; and users of the district network or other technologies are expected to alert the Information Technology (IT) staff immediately of any concerns for safety or security.

Technologies Covered

OSD may provide the privilege of internet access, desktop computers, mobile computers, personal devices, videoconferencing capabilities, online collaboration capabilities, message boards, email, and more.

This Responsible Use Policy applies to school-owned technology equipment utilizing the OSD network and or via the OSD internet connection and/or private networks/internet connections accessed from school-owned devices at any time. This Responsible Use Policy also applies to privately-owned devices accessing the OSD network, the OSD internet connection/private networks/internet connections while on school property. As relevant new technologies emerge, OSD will seek to provide access to them. The policies outlined in this document cover all available technologies now and in the future, not just those specifically listed or currently available.

Usage Policies

All technologies provided by the district are intended for educational purposes. All users are expected to use good judgment and to follow the specifics as well as the spirit of this document. Users should be safe, appropriate, careful, and kind; not try to get around technological protection measures; use good common sense; and ask if they do not know.

Web Access

OSD provides its users the privilege of access to the internet, including web sites, resources, content, and online tools. Access to the internet will be restricted as required to comply with CIPA regulations and school policies. Web browsing may be monitored and web activity records may be retained indefinitely.

Users are expected to respect the web filter as a safety precaution and shall not attempt to circumvent the web filter when browsing the internet. The determination of whether material is appropriate or inappropriate is based solely upon the content of the material and the intended use of the material; not on whether a website has been blocked or not. If a user believes a site is unnecessarily blocked, the user should submit a request for website review through the OSD Technology Help Desk or the restricted access screen.

Downloads

Users should not download or attempt to download or run programs over the school network or onto school resources without expressed permission from IT staff.

Users may be able to download other file types, such as images of videos. For the security of the network, users should download such files only from reputable sites and only for educational purposes.

Netiquette

Users should always use the internet, network resources, and online sites in a courteous and respectful manner.

Users should recognize that among the valuable content online there is also unverified, incorrect, or inappropriate content. Users should only use trusted sources when conducting research via the internet.

12

Users should remember not to post anything online that they would not want students, parents, teachers, future colleges nor employers to see. Once something is online, it cannot be completely retracted and can sometimes be shared and spread in ways the user never intended.

Plagiarism

Users should not plagiarize (or use as their own, without citing the original creator) content, including words or images, from the internet. Users should not take credit for things they did not create themselves, nor misrepresent themselves as an author or creator of something found online. Information obtained via the internet should be appropriately cited, giving credit to the original author.

Personal Safety

Users should never share personal information, including phone number, address, social security number, birthday, or financial information, over the internet without adult permission. Users should recognize that communication over the internet brings anonymity and associated risks, and should carefully safeguard the personal information of themselves and others. Users should never agree to meet in real life someone they meet online without parental permission.

If users see a message, comment, image, or anything else online that makes them concerned for their personal safety, they should immediately bring it to the attention of an adult (teacher or staff if at school; parent if using the device at home).

Cyber-bullying

Cyber-bullying will not be tolerated. Harassing, flaming, denigrating, impersonating, outing, tricking, excluding, and cyber-stalking are all examples of cyber-bullying. Users should not be mean or send emails or post comments with the intent of scaring, hurting, or intimidating someone else.

Engaging in these behaviors, or any online activities intended to harm (physically or emotionally) another person, will result in severe disciplinary action and loss of privileges. In some cases, cyber-bullying can be a crime. Remember that online activities may be monitored and retained.

All students will be educated about appropriate online behavior, including interacting with other individuals on social networking websites and in chat rooms, and cyber-bullying awareness and response.

Examples of Responsible Use

I will:

1. Use school technologies for school-related activities;

2. Follow the same guidelines for respectful, responsible behavior online that I am expected to follow offline;

3. Treat school resources carefully and alert staff if there is any problem with their operation;

4. Encourage positive, constructive discussion if allowed to use communicative or collaborative technologies;

6. Alert a teacher or other staff member if I see threatening, inappropriate, or harmful content (images, messages, posts) online;

7. Use school technologies at appropriate times, in approved places, for educational pursuits;

8. Cite sources when using online sites and resources for research; recognize that use of school technologies is a

13

privilege and treat it as such;

9. Be cautious to protect the safety of others and myself; and help to protect the security of school resources.

This is not intended to be an exhaustive list. Users should use their own good judgment when using school technologies.

Examples of Irresponsible Use

I will not:

1. Use school technologies in a way that could be personally or physically harmful;

2. Attempt to find inappropriate images or content; ��� engage in cyber-bullying, harassment, or disrespectful conduct toward others;

3. Try to find ways to circumvent the school's safety measures and filtering tools; use school technologies to send spam or chain mail;

4. Plagiarize content I find online; ��� post personally identifying information about others or myself; ���

5. Agree to meet in person someone I meet online; ���use language online that would be inappropriate in the classroom; ��� use school technologies for illegal activities or to pursue information on such activities;

6. ���Attempt to hack or access sites, servers, or content that is not intended for my use.

This is not intended to be an exhaustive list. Users should use their own good judgment when using school technologies.

Limitation of Liability

OSD will not be responsible for damage or harm to persons, files, data, or hardware.

While OSD employs filtering and other safety and security mechanisms, and attempts to ensure their proper function, it makes no guarantees as to their effectiveness.

OSD will not be responsible, financially or otherwise, for unauthorized transactions conducted over the school network.

Violations of this Responsible Use Policy

Violations of this policy may have disciplinary consequences, including:

Suspension of network, technology, or computer privileges; notification of parents; detention or suspension from school and school-related activities; employment disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment; and/or legal action and/or prosecution.

Staff, students and parents/guardians shall be required to sign the Oxford School District Use Agreement annually before internet or network access shall be allowed.

ARRIVING AND DEPARTING FROM SCHOOL OLC doors will be unlocked at 8:00 AM. No student should arrive at school before 8:00 am. Upon arrival at school, students should go to their assigned area/room. Students are expected to be in their seat in the classroom and ready for instruction when the tardy bell rings at 8:25 AM. Any student not in his or her assigned area by 8:25 am will be considered tardy.

14

Students who ride with their parents will load and unload at the front entrance of OLC at 399 N. 5th Street for safety reasons. Students are not allowed to drive to school unless exception is given by the principal. Proof of insurance and licensure will be required in such cases. Students may not disembark a bus or private vehicle at Oxford Learning Center, and then leave school grounds without prior permission from the principal. This will be considered skipping. Any student leaving before the end of the school day must be signed out by the parent/guardian or authorized individual listed on their student check out form. Upon check out students are expected to immediately leave school premises with said parent/ guardian or authorized individual. Students that do not attend at least 67% of the school day will not get credit for the school day. Any student remaining in the building after 4:00 pm must be under the supervision of a teacher. ASBESTOS POLICY An approved asbestos management plan is on file with the Mississippi Department of Education. Asbestos management plans are available for public review at each school location. ASSIGNMENT TO OLC All students are assigned to the Oxford Learning Center as the result of either a committee decision based on all information presented during a hearing designed for such purpose, TST Meeting, or an IEP committee meeting. The student and parents are invited to participate in all processes and to present any information they feel is appropriate and relevant to the issue. If the parents are not in agreement with the decision of the committee, it is the right of the parents to appeal the decision. * Once a student is assigned to OLC, the issue of whether or not the assignment is appropriate will not be discussed with students and/or parents. The focus of the program will be on enabling the student to successfully return to the school of origin. * Upon recommendation and approval by the appropriate administrators, students may be assigned to OLC after the parent/guardian has signed a waiver indicating they do not wish to participate in a disciplinary hearing or agree it would be the proper placement for the student. ATTENDANCE POLICY APPEAL PROCEDURES Once a student has exceeded the maximum number of days allowed in the OSD, he/she may not be awarded credit for the course or be promoted to the next grade level. Parents are encouraged to provide additional information regarding the reasons for absences. The appeals process is as follows:

• The appeal must be directed to the school principal, must explain circumstances that led to the absences, and must include sufficient documentation. The principal shall forward the appeal to the Teacher Support Team. The Teacher Support Team will then schedule a meeting with the parent regarding the student’s attendance. If the student was absent due to a long term illness, a letter from the attending physician explaining the nature and length of the illness may be appropriate to assist the Teacher Support Team. Documentation from a physician or officer of the court must be original and may be subject to verification. A fax originating from the appropriate office will be accepted.

• Appeals not granted by the school’s Teacher Support Team will be reviewed by a District Attendance Committee composed of teachers and administrators at the end of each semester, if the parent requests the appeal to the district committee.

• Upon completion of the review, the parent/legal guardian will be notified of the decision.

• Must be present eighty-four (84) days for a semester course. (Maximum six (6) absences) • Must be present one hundred sixty-eight (168) days for a full year course. (Maximum twelve (12) absences)

15

BULLYING Bullying of any kind is strictly prohibited at OLC. Bullying includes but is not limited to any behavior that is intentionally meant to harm, intimidate or demoralize another student. BEHAVIOR MODIFICATION PROGRAM The purpose of the behavior modification program is to provide students with the necessary skills to help them modify behaviors that often impede their ability to be successful in the traditional classroom setting. Students enrolled in the behavior modification program will be required to meet all exit criteria prior to transitioning back to their school of origin. Students who fail to meet the exit criteria prior to the end of the school year will be required to return to OLC at the beginning of the next school year to satisfy the exit requirements. Points earned during the previous school year will be forfeited in the event that a student does not meet the exit requirements during the current school year. BREAKFAST Breakfast for all students is free. Breakfast will be served on site at OLC upon bus dismissal. BUSES OLC student’s are provided transportation by the OSD. They are assigned a designated bus to ride daily. Students who attend OLC will load the bus from their residence and unload the bus at OLC. OLC student’s are not permitted to ride another OSD bus except the designated bus provided for OLC. Students will ride the OLC assigned bus until they have fully transitioned back to the referring school. Regular bus privileges will be gained at the time BUS CONDUCT Code: JCDAD Adopted: June 12, 1980 Revision: 7/1/02, 6/28/04

17

Consequences for Major Bus Infractions Students who commit a major infraction may be punished in the following manner. Any vandalism to the bus will result in suspension of service, and the student will be required to reimburse the school district for repair of the damage.

Suspension of services will not be lifted until restitution for damages has been made.

1st infraction..........10-day suspension 2nd infraction........90-day suspension 3rd infraction.......180-day suspension

Automatic Denial of Services: If a student threatens or assaults an Oxford School District employee, charges will be filed against the student, and bus service will be denied to that student. If the student is found to possess or use drugs or alcohol; is found to possess a firearm or dangerous weapon or if the student’s parent or guardian gains unauthorized entry onto the bus, then bus service will be automatically denied. Suspension of bus services will include not only regular routes but also extra-curricular transportation. When a student is suspended from an Oxford School District bus, it means all Oxford School District school buses for transportation to school or to extracurricular events. Any student found riding another bus after being suspended from a bus will lose the privilege of riding a school bus for 90 days.

To Reinstate Bus Service Before a student’s access to bus transportation can be reinstated, the student must present a written request from the principal to the OSD Director of Transportation. This document is required to reinstate transportation to both school and to extracurricular events.

To Appeal the Denial of Bus Service An appeal of the decision to suspend a student from a bus should be directed in writing to the Director of Transportation, 224 Bramlett Blvd., Oxford, Mississippi 38655. The Director of Transportation will review all written requests and inform the parent of the results of the appeal.

School Options Additionally, consequences as prescribed by the Code of Conduct Brochure may be implemented by school administrators depending upon the nature and severity of the infraction.

CARNEGIE UNITS Carnegie Units are end of course credits that a student receives upon successful completion of certain subjects. Final grades will be factored into a student’s high school GPA.

CELL PHONES/ELECTRONIC DEVICES Students are required to surrender cell phones/electronic devices at the door and they will be locked in a lock box. Cell phones will be confiscated if they are not turned in during morning check-in. CHECKING OUT OF SCHOOL The following procedures will be followed when it becomes necessary for a parent/guardian to check out a student before the dismissal of school:

- A student will be permitted to leave when an authorized parent/guardian comes to the school to check out the student. The parent/guardian must sign the checkout form.

- Students are not permitted to be checked out by another student or individuals not listed on their student registration information.

- Anytime a student leaves school, he/she must be signed in by their parent/ guardian upon their return to school. - A student who leaves school without permission and does not follow correct procedures for checkout will be

subject to disciplinary action. - Note: Telephone calls and notes are not sufficient for student release from school. - Note: A students’ “successful day” may be in jeopardy if a child misses more than 1 hour in the day.

18

CLASSROOM GRIEVANCE PROCEDURE Teachers and administrators act in loco parentis (as a parent for the student) while the child is at school or involved in a school activity. There are times when the student does not agree with everything that is occurring in the classroom. If a student has questions or concerns about a teacher’s action, the student should follow these measures:

- Students are to follow all directions of the teacher. - If a student disagrees with the teacher’s request, they should handle the problem after class to preserve the dignity

of the student and the teacher. - If a student is then unable to resolve a conflict with the teacher, the student should request a conference with the

teacher through the behavior specialist or principal. - If this does not resolve the problem, the student’s parent/guardian should arrange a conference with the teacher

through the principal’s office. - Confronting the faculty in the classroom is discouraged and may result in a referral for disruptive or disrespectful

COMPULSORY SCHOOL ATTENDANCE

Code: JBA Adopted: July 1, 2002 Revision: 5/26/15

JBA Compulsory School Attendance (updated 5/26/15)

The term "minor" when used in any statute, shall include any person, male or female, less than twenty-one (21) years of age (MS Code of 1972, Annotated § 1-3-27).

The Oxford School District shall comply with the requirements of the "Mississippi Compulsory School Attendance Law" (MS Code of 1972, Annotated § 37-13-91). Appropriate reports as required by law shall be provided to the Mississippi Department of Education's Office of Compulsory School Attendance Enforcement.

COMPULSORY-SCHOOL-AGE CHILD

The school board is committed to providing the students of the Oxford School District a performance-based educational program. The school board believes that all children can learn and that their daily attendance enhances the educational process. Therefore, in accordance with MS Code of 1972, Annotated § 37-13-91, the Oxford School District is directed to enforce the “Mississippi Compulsory School Attendance Law” and shall apply the same standards toward all students.

"Compulsory-school-age child" means a child who has attained or will attain the age of six (6) years on or before September 1 of the calendar year and who has not attained the age of seventeen (17) on or before September 1 of the calendar year.

An "unexcused absence" is an absence during a school day by a compulsory-school-age child, whose absence is not due to a valid excuse for temporary nonattendance.

("School day" means not less than five (5) and not more than eight (8) hours of actual teaching in which both teachers and pupils are in regular attendance for scheduled schoolwork.) Each of the following, as outlined by MS Code of 1972, Annotated § 37-13-91, shall constitute a valid excuse for temporary nonattendance of any child enrolled in school, provided satisfactory evidence of the excuse is provided to the superintendent of the school district or his/her designee.

20

1. An absence is excused when the absence results from the attendance of an authorized school activity with the prior approval of the superintendent of the school district or his/her designee. Such activities may include field trips, athletic contests, student conventions, music festivals and any similar activity.

2. An absence is excused when the absence results from illness or injury which prevents the school-age child from being physically able to attend school.

3. An absence is excused when isolation of a school-age child is ordered by the county health office, the State Board of Health, or an appropriate school official.

4. An absence is excused when it results from the death or serious illness of a member of the immediate family of a school-age child. The immediate family member of a school-age child shall include children, spouse, grandparents, parents, brothers and sisters, including stepbrothers and stepsisters.

5. An absence is excused when it results from a medical or dental appointment of a school-age child. 6. An absence is excused when it results from the attendance of a school-age child at the proceedings of a court or

administrative tribunal if such a child is a party to the action or under subpoena as a witness. 7. An absence may be excused if the religion, to which the school-age child or such child's parents adheres, requires

or suggests the observance of a religious event. The approval of such absence is within the discretion of the superintendent or his/her designee, but approval should be granted unless the religion's observance is of such duration as to interfere with the education of the child.

8. An absence may be excused when it is demonstrated to the satisfaction of the superintendent or his/her designee that the purpose of the absence is to take advantage of a valid educational opportunity such as travel including vacations or other family travel. Approval of such absence must be gained from the superintendent or his/her designee prior to the absence but such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

9. An absence may be excused when it is demonstrated to the satisfaction of the superintendent or his/her designee that conditions are sufficient to warrant the school-age child's non-attendance.

Any parent, guardian or custodian of a compulsory-school-age child subject to the provisions of this policy who refuses or willfully fails to perform any of the duties imposed upon him or her under the provisions of this policy or who intentionally falsifies any information required to be contained in a certificate of enrollment, shall be guilty of contributing to the neglect of a child and, upon conviction, shall be punished in accordance with the provisions of MS Code of 1972, Annotated § 97-5-39.

If a compulsory-school-age child has not been enrolled in a school within fifteen (15) calendar days after the first day of the school year of the school which such child is eligible to attend or such child has accumulated five (5) unexcused absences during the school year, the principal or superintendent shall report such absences to the school attendance officer of the youth court or family court.

Requirements for Carnegie Unit Credit

Students who exceed this standard may not, pending appeal, receive a grade or Carnegie unit credit in the course. A notation of inadequate attendance (IA) will be recorded on the report card and on the transcript if the student is passing the course. Students may, pending appeal, be required to make up class time on an hour for hour basis in order to remove IA status.

If the student is failing the course, the actual failing grade will be posted on the report card and on the transcript.

For the purpose of this attendance policy, three (3) tardies or early check-outs equal one (1) day’s absence.

If the principal determines that credit should be withheld based on attendance, the parent will have (5) days to appeal the principal’s decision. Appeal procedures will be reviewed annually and published in the Student Handbook.

Opportunities for make-up days

A total of six (6) Saturdays and an extended school term will be utilized to aid students in meeting the one hundred sixty-eight (168) day attendance requirement. Dates will be published at the beginning of each school term.

Excused Absences

In the event that a student is absent from school, the parent must notify the school attendance office in writing for the absence to be considered a parental excuse.

All other absences require medical or legal documentation to be submitted to the school attendance office. Documentation must be submitted within three (3) days of when the student returns to school for the absence to be considered excused.

If parental, legal, or medical documentation is not presented as required, the absence shall be considered unexcused.

If a student is going to be absent for an extended period of time due to extenuating circumstances, the parent/guardian is required to notify the school in advance. Notification to the school does not insure that the absences will be excused.

Absences that result from a school sponsored activity will not be counted against the attendance requirement. Students will not be required to make up this time.

Make-up Work

It is the student’s responsibility to make up work due to an absence. Procedures for making up work will be outlined in the Student Handbook.

22

Any student who is assigned to in-school suspension or suspended out of school will be expected to complete assignments. A grade of zero (0) will be given for incomplete assignments.

Unexcused Absences

The Oxford School District follows the “Mississippi Compulsory School Attendance Law” in reporting unexcused absences to the Lafayette County Attendance Officer. An accumulation of unexcused absences may be one (1) factor in determining promotion/retention of a student.

After not more than five (5) unexcused absences, the principal shall notify the Lafayette County Attendance Officer. The parent/guardian will then be notified that the student may be in violation of the “Mississippi Compulsory School Attendance Law.” Parents may also be prosecuted if the absences cannot be justified under the established attendance policies.

After twelve (12) accumulated unexcused absences, the principal shall notify the Lafayette County Attendance Officer. The parent/guardian will then be notified that the student may be in violation of the “Mississippi Compulsory School Attendance Law.” Parents may also be prosecuted if the absences cannot be justified under the established attendance policies.

It is the position of the Board of Trustees of the Oxford School District that student use of illicit drugs and the unlawful possession and use of alcohol are wrong and harmful. Accordingly, the Board is opposed to the illegal use of drugs, narcotics, anabolic steroids, or alcohol beverages by students on or off campus. A student shall not possess, use, transmit, or be under the influence of any illegal drug or alcoholic beverage of any kind. Use of a drug authorized by a medical prescription from a registered physician shall not be considered a violation of this rule; however, it shall be a violation if any student has a pill, drug or medicine in any container that does not have the prescription label thereon. Such medication shall be kept in the nurse’s office and taken under the direct supervision of the nurse or office personnel. Also prohibited is the sale or attempted sale of drugs or alcoholic beverages by seller and/or thought to be drugs by the buyer on school property or at a school function or on property used by the school with permission of the owner.

Compliance with the above requirements is mandatory. Students who violate any of these rules may be suspended or expelled from school in accordance with School Board Policy JD.

Teachers should follow the guidelines below when class atmosphere is altered because of suspected drug influence:

1. A student that cannot function productively should be identified to the principal. 2. The teacher shall identify the inappropriate behavior. (Ex.: falling asleep, cannot comprehend normal

conversation, is unable to move correctly, etc.)

Principals should follow the appropriate procedures below when student behavior is altered because of suspected drug influence:

1. Parents should be contacted and informed that their “child is unable to function in class.” Principals should be cautious about making specific accusations.

2. Principals will ask parents to pick their child up at school and when they arrive will provide them with a statement of counseling procedures. (Counseling, to include the student and the parents, will occur within seven to ten days.)

3. When justified by behavior or material evidence, the appropriate police authorities must be called, parents contacted, and evidence retained for police inspection.

4. If there is a question about the student’s physical-medical well being, the appropriate rescue agency should be contacted immediately.

The Oxford School District, through the D.A.R.E. Program, provides age appropriate, developmentally based drug and alcohol education and prevention programs, which address the legal, social and health consequences of drug and alcohol use and to provide information about effective techniques for resisting peer pressure to use illicit drugs or alcohol, for all students in the system. In addition to the D.A.R.E. program, school nurses and counselors shall provide information about any drug and alcohol counseling rehabilitation programs available to students. A copy of this policy shall be provided to all parents and students.

DUE PROCESS

A due process hearing is conducted for each student that has been suspended long term and for each student that has been expelled, prior to placement in the alternative school program. Due process procedures include:

Students will receive a more extensive intake program after the parent orientation. EXAMS Exams will be administered during each semester grading period; however teachers are not prohibited from assessing students during nine-week intervals. Exams are not to be administered early without prior approval from the principal.

Below 65 Teachers will make students aware of the formula used to determine each individual grade and the procedure for determining the nine-week grade. Homework, daily grades, tests, projects, and the nine-week test can all be used to determine the nine-week average. Grades from other activities, to be determined by the teacher may also be used. Assignments are due as determined by the instructor. Semester exams will be administered at the end of each semester. The semester average will be determined by averaging the two nine week grades. The yearly grade on each subject is the average of the two semester grades. GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS OLC will adhere to the guidelines identified in Board Policy IHF. HALL PASSES OLC students should not be out of class without adult supervision; this includes going to the restroom. Students leaving class without permission will be subject to disciplinary action. Students entering an unauthorized area or classroom without permission will be subject to disciplinary action. This also covers doorways and windows of non-assigned rooms. Students are expected to be in their assigned class on time. If an emergency occurs and the student must leave the classroom, a completed hall pass must be in their possession. The pass must contain the student’s name, the date and time, the destination, and the teacher’s signature. Students should not come to the office between classes or at lunchtime, unless called to the office. HOMEWORK Homework should be an extension of a classroom experience; it should not be assigned for disciplinary purposes. Parents will be informed at the start of the school year the percentage weight each teacher assigns to homework. Homework should be assigned as a reflection of the referring school to help better prepare students for their transition period. Student Responsibilities for Homework • Homework is the student's responsibility. • Students are expected to use some organized method to record assignments. • Students should make every effort to clarify homework assignments before leaving school. • Students should complete homework assignments alone, unless it is beneficial to complete work cooperatively with

other students. If the homework is difficult, a student should seek help from a teacher. • Students are expected to complete assignments and turn them in to teachers on the pre-determined due dates. • Students are responsible for obtaining from their teachers any missed assignments and class work, and this work

should be made up as soon as possible. Failure to turn in make-up work may result in a lower grade. Please refer to the table under the Late Work section of this handbook.

Parent Responsibilities • Homework is a responsibility that rightfully belongs to the child, not the parents. • Direct parental participation should be minimal; the younger the student, the more likely the need for parental

involvement. • Parents should provide a place to study, free from distractions, and provide appropriate materials, pencils, pens,

erasers, rulers, etc. • Parents should monitor the time spent on homework and speak with the teacher if the amount of time appears to be

consistently excessive or too little. • Parents should speak with the teacher if the assignments seem unclear or too difficult. • Homework is a necessary part of life at Oxford Learning Center. As a general rule, students will have to spend some

time each day on homework. Research shows that one of the most frequent reasons for student failure and/or low grades is not doing homework.

28

INTERFERENCE WITH SCHOOL BUSES It is unlawful for any individual other than a member of the school district administration or faculty or a law enforcement official to interfere in any way with the operation of a school bus. State law prohibits unauthorized boarding of school buses or interference with passenger boarding or leaving, under penalties of fine and/or imprisonment.

LIBRARY

Books are available for students to read at the discretion of the supervising teacher. Teachers will escort students to the library. The library area will remain locked while students are present.

LOST AND FOUND ITEMS

LUNCH

Lunch will be served at the OLC for OLC students. Ice cream and milk products may be purchased without purchasing a meal. All other extra food items can only be purchased after a regular meal is purchased first. State law prohibits all charging in the school cafeteria. Prices for students’ lunches are: Full price -$2.75; reduced price - $.40. MAKE-UP WORK Students shall be permitted to make up assignments and tests following any absence. All students will receive credit for satisfactory make-up work after an absence. •  Make-up work is available to all students. Students are responsible for asking teachers for the make-up work upon returning to class. •  A student will be given as many days as he/she was absent to make up tests and other missed assignments. The time allowed for make-up work for full credit will be equal to the number of times a class was missed. •  Students shall receive full credit for satisfactory make-up work after an absence received within the allotted time. If a student does not complete the work assigned after the allotted number of days/class periods has passed, then the assignment is considered late work. •  Teachers may provide assignments prior to an absence, but are not required to do so unless the absence has been approved by the building principal with two weeks’ advanced notice. •  Make-up work, including tests, may be of an altered version. The assignment shall be based on the instructional objectives for the subject or course. •  Students shall not be required to take a quiz or test on the day of returning to school if the test was announced during the student’s absence. •  Exceptions may be granted by the Administration in extenuating circumstances. •  Suspension: A student suspended from his /her regular classes is to request make-up work when he/she returns to school. The student will receive an excused absence, and the student is expected to satisfactorily complete the assignments for the period of suspension within the time designated by the make-up work policy. The school shall not impose a grade penalty for make-up work after an absence because of a suspension. MEDICATIONS All medicine will be dispensed in the nurse’s office unless students are on a field trip. Parents may come to school and administer medicine to their child in the nurse’s office. All dispensation of medicine will be recorded and the person dispensing the medicine will initial the daily log sheet. Medications are not to be carried by students on his/her person at school. Due to the potential danger of carrying epipens, they will need to be kept in the office. Asthma inhalers may be carried by the student during school hours.
