Emergency Procedures for Students
Evacuation
– Students are to move with your classroom teacher quietly
and orderly to your assigned area in the stadium. Arrange yourselves in
alphabetical order with your first
period teacher for a quick attendance check.
If you are out of the classroom when the alarm sounds, report directly
to your teacher at the stadium. If the
alarm sounds during lunch, before school, or passing periods, report to the
stadium and line up with your first period class. Do not leave the school without going through
the proper procedures of checking out with office staff.
Lockdown
– Students need to follow teacher requests to get to a safe
place. If in a classroom, this will be
away from windows and behind locked doors.
If an emergency lockdown is called during a passing period, students
should go to the nearest open classroom.
If called during lunchtime, those students in the cafeteria should move
to a safer place, such as the gym or auditorium. Follow directions as provided over the
intercom or by your teacher.

Federal Financial Aid Forms (FAFSA), which include grant and loan information,
are available from the counselors in late November or early December. The information provided on these forms
assists the college and financial aid administrators in determining the student
eligibility for all forms of financial aid (work study, grant, loan, tuition
waivers) and are also used by many institutions awarding scholarships.

Telephones
The office telephone is a
business phone and should be used by pupils for emergencies only. A student phone is located near the main
office and is for use only during passing times or at lunch. Students who bring cellular phones to school
accept responsibility for damage or theft.
Cellular phones are to be turned
off during class time. Cellular phones
that are used during class time are considered disruptive and will result in
disciplinary action, including loss of the phone for at least the remainder of
the school day.
Visitors
All adult visitors to the campus
are required to obtain consent for the visit at the office. Student visitations during academic hours are
not permitted.
Attendance Policy
Philosophy - Students are expected to attend school
regularly and to be punctual because regular attendance has a positive affect
on student learning and achievement.
Participation in class activities and interaction between students and
teacher is necessary to the learning process.
Nonetheless, it is recognized that at times students appropriately may
be absent from class. Therefore, the
following principles shall govern the development and administration of
attendance procedures.
Attendance
Procedures –
·
It is the responsibility of the student and his/her
parents or guardians to provide a note that describes the reason for the
absence. Students have one day to bring in an excuse for an absence. Any absence that has not been cleared in one
day will be considered a truancy and carry the appropriate consequence.
·
Students are required to pick up an admit slip in
the office when they return to school.
Slips must be picked up before school starts. If a student does not have an admit slip when
they arrive in class, they will be sent back to the office to get one which
will result in a tardy.
·
When checking out, the student must
have a note or confirm with a phone call from a guardian verified by a
secretary or administrator PRIOR to leaving school.
Definitions:
Excused absences from school shall be:
·
Participation in school-sponsored and approved activities. To be excused, a staff member must authorize
the absence and the affected teacher must be notified prior to the absence
unless it is clearly impossible to do so.
·
Absences caused by illness, health
condition, family emergency, religious observation. The parent is required to send a signed note
of explanation with the student upon his/her return to school. The student shall be allowed one make-up day
for each day of absence.
·
Absences for appointments for
doctor, dentist, DMV or court. Students will return with an appointment
card from the doctor or dentist to verify such appointments. The student is responsible to bring the note
to the office the morning of the appointment to receive a blue slip excusing him/her
from school at the appropriate time.
When it is time to leave, the student is to show the teacher the blue
slip and then check out through the office.
·
Absence for parental-approved
activities. This
category of absence shall be counted as excused for purposes agreed upon by the
principal and the parent. An absence may
not be approved if it causes a serious adverse effect on the student’s
educational progress. Because many of
our classes involve activity based learning, the student may not be able to
achieve the objectives of the unit of instruction as a result of absence from
class. In such a case, a parent-approved
absence would have an adverse effect on the student’s educational progress,
which could result in the grade dropping or possibly in the student not earning
credit in the class(es).
·
If a student is absent on a date that a
major assignment is due he/she will be given a zero. (a medical emergency with
a note from the Dr. will be the only exception given)
·
Absence resulting from disciplinary
actions or short-term suspension. As required by law, students who are removed
from a class or classes as a disciplinary measure or students who have been
placed on short-term suspension shall have the right to make up assignments or
exams. Assignments that have been made
available to the student during their suspension time are due when the student
returns to school in order for credit to be awarded. There may be some activities or projects that
the student will not be able to make-up if their attendance in class was
essential to the acquisition of the knowledge.
However, make-up work is not available to students on long-term
suspension that is for the remainder of the term.
Make-up
policy for excused absences
If an absence is excused, students shall be
permitted to make up most assignments outside of class under reasonable
conditions and time limits established by the appropriate teacher(s). The guide to the number of days in which work
is to be made up is determined by the number of days absent (one-day make-up
for every day absent). Because many of
our classes involve activity based learning, there may be some assignments that
can not be made up and the absence may have an impact of the student’s grade in
the class.
Any time that a student is absent from school, it is the
student’s responsibility to check with the teacher to find out what work he/she
missed during the absence.
·
Pre-arranged or school sponsored activities that
result in an excused absence---Students must contact the teacher before the
absence to determine what work or activity they will miss. If the activity is one that can not be
replicated, it is the responsibility of the student to recommend an alternative
activity to replace the one missed. The
alternative learning activity must be agreed to by the teacher in order for a
grade to be awarded. The teacher and
student will determine the timeline for the make-up activity.
·
Excused absences caused by illness, health
condition, family emergency---Students must contact the teacher the day they
return to class to determine what work or activity they missed. If the activity is one that can not be
replicated, it is the responsibility of the student to recommend an alternative
activity to replace the one missed. The
alternative learning activity must be agreed to by the teacher in order for a
grade to be awarded. The teacher &
student will determine the timeline for the make-up.
·
If a student has been given an assignment prior to
an absence that is due on a day s/he is excused from school, the assignment is
due on the first day back in school.
Truancy
Truancy is failing to submit any type of excused statement
by the parent, guardian or adult student within one day of returning to
school. Skipping school or class without
following attendance procedures is considered truancy.
If the absence is due to truancy, the student will not be
allowed to make up missed work that occurred during the absence for grade. The student
will receive a zero for the class period missed if the graded activity occurred
in class for any truancy.
The Washington State Mandatory Attendance Law
(Becca Bill) requires that the school submit a petition to the juvenile court
on any student who is truant from school for five (5) days in any one month or
when s/he has accumulated ten (10) days truant during the current school
year. Our school district considers four
(4) or more periods a school day. The
school has the option of filing a truancy petition at any time that a student
begins to show a pattern of truancy.
Consequences for truancy (See discipline policy)

county, or local law. When a student is suspended, the student will not be
allowed to participate in extracurricular activities, either practice or

E.V.H.S. GUIDELINES FOR DISCIPLINE
At East Valley High, our
goal is to develop young people who behave properly and appropriately in a
variety of situations. Disciplinarians and hearing officers will be allowed to
grant exceptions in cases involving extenuating circumstances and/or
exceptional circumstances as provided for in WAC 180.40. In examining extenuating and/or exceptional
circumstances, the truthfulness of the student, the complete discipline history
of the student and any previous similar discipline will be strongly considered.
The frequency, with which students violate various school policies, rules, and
regulations, is often of equal or greater concern than single violations. The cumulative effects of these acts may
determine the form of discipline, including suspension and/or expulsion. The following is not an exhaustive list. E.V.H.S. will honor suspensions from running
start, skill center programs, and suspensions given by other schools to
transferring students.

EAST VALLEY SCHOOL DISTRICT
STUDENT ACTIVITY CODE
Revision 4/25/06
GENERAL
PHILOSOPHY: The opportunity
to participate in the activity program is a privilege for students. Participants in this voluntary program are
expected to conform to the specific conduct standards as outlined in the
activity code. Students who choose to participate, and their parents, should
recognize that being involved in athletics or other activities means spending
additional time, money, and effort, as well as possible sacrifices. Participants should be reminded that they
will be representing not only themselves, but also their family, their team,
their school and their community.
Participants should understand that high standards of academic
performance, citizenship and conduct are expected because they have chosen to
represent their school and community.
A student who is found to be in
violation of any rule is subject to discipline/exclusion or removal from the
team. The sanctions imposed for rule
violations will be of a progressive
nature, with repeated violations calling for more severe sanctions. However,
violations of the code, which cause a serious health or safety problem or
substantially disrupt the activity, may result in immediate exclusion from the
activity for the remainder of the school year.
A grievance hearing procedure for students is set forth in WAC
180-40-240, incorporated by this reference in this code. In summary, the WAC provides for a review by
the principal, then superintendent or designee, and finally the school board. During the grievance or appeal of any
discipline imposed, the discipline shall continue unless the principal
postpones such action.

ARTICLE III STUDENT CONDUCT
The following substantive rules apply to all students
participating in the activity program.
Violation of these rules will result in discipline as described in this
code.
Alcohol – No student shall knowingly possess, use,
transmit, show evidence of, or be under the influence of alcoholic beverage or
an intoxicant of any kind. Consequence:
The first violation will result in no less than exclusion from team(s) for a
period of ten (10) consecutive activity days (days of practices or games). A student may choose to have a UA (at student
expense), have and adhere to a drug/alcohol assessment. If a student chooses
this option the term of exclusion will be reduced to 5 days. This option is a
first violation only. Note: additional
consequences may be imposed by EVHS policy. A second offense will result in
exclusion from all extra-curricular activities for the remainder of the school
year. These training rules apply to violations
anywhere on and off the school premises during the defined activity or sports
season.
Anabolic Steroid / Legend Drugs / Controlled Substance: – In
accordance with RCW 69.41020-69.41.050, no student shall knowingly possess,
use, transmit, be under the influence of, or show evidence of having recently
used anabolic steroids or legend drugs (any drug that can only be obtained by
prescription) or uniform controlled substances. The school has the authority to test if
there is probable cause.
Consequences -
The first violation will result in the student
athlete’s immediate exclusion from the current sports program for the remainder
of the season. Ineligibility shall
continue until the next sports season in which the participant wishes to
participate. In order to be eligible to
participate in the next interscholastic sports season, the student athlete
shall meet with the school eligibility board consisting of coaches and
administrators selected by the principal, to request approval to
participate. The school eligibility
board will recommend to the principal appropriate action to be taken in the
student athlete’s case. The school
principal shall have the final authority as to the student athlete’s
participation in the interscholastic sports program. A participant who seeks and receives help
for a problem with use of legend drugs or controlled substances and controlled
substance analogs shall be given the opportunity for assistance through the
school and/or community agencies. In no
instance shall participation in a school and/or community approved assistance
program excuse a student athlete from subsequent compliance with this
regulation. However, successful
utilization of such an opportunity or compliance with athletic code by the
student athlete may allow him/her to have eligibility re-instated in the
athletic program, pending recommendation by the school eligibility authority.
The second violation of RCW 69.41.20-69.41.050
by a student athlete shall result in the athlete being ineligible and prohibited
from participating in any WIAA member school interscholastic sports program for
a period of one calendar year from the date of the second violation.

student athlete shall result in the athlete being permanently prohibited from
participating in any WIAA member school athletic program. Violations of RCW
69.41.20-69.41.050 are accumulative from grades seven to twelve, and from
school district to school district.
Note: the consequences will be updated to comply with WIAA regulations.
Attendance at functions or be in immediate proximity where
alcohol/drugs are being illegally used: Participants shall not attend
functions or be in immediate proximity where alcohol and/or drugs are being
used with their knowledge, including placing themselves in circumstances where
they should reasonably know that such conditions exist. If they become aware, they will leave the
function or area immediately.
Consequence: The first violation
will result in one contest suspension.
The second an/or subsequent violation will be consistent with the same
as those outlined for use of alcohol/drugs.

the school premises during the defined activity or sports season. Consequence:
The exclusion/suspension will go into effect upon final court
proceeding.
EVHS Student Related Conduct – No student shall violate any of the established “Student Code of Conduct” rules outlined in student
handbook. Violation of school rules may
result in consequences, which may impact participation in practices and/or
contests. Example school dress code
EVHS Athletic Related Conduct -- Willful disobedience,
disruptive conduct, harassment (including mental, sexual, or physical abuse),
fighting, irregular attendance, vulgarity and profanity while participating in
his/her activity, unsafe actions, and unsportsmanlike conduct may lead to

contests or will not travel with the team while he/she is being
disciplined. The participant will be
required to attend all practices during his/her disciplinary action. Repeat offenses will result in additional 10%
(10% + 10%) of contests for the individual sport without competition and may
lead to suspension from all extra-curricular activities for the remainder of
that academic year.
Sportsmanship – No student shall display
unsportsmanlike conduct or use abusive or profane language in any practice or
any contest. Consequence: The consequence will be progressive
and at the discretion of the head coach and athletic director.

academic eligibility standards. Students not maintaining the academic
eligibility standards at grade checks will be considered ineligible and the
ineligibility will begin the Monday following the grade check to the next
Monday.
WIAA rules on academic
eligibility will supersede district rules at semester or trimester grading
periods. WIAA stipulates that a student
must be passing four classes in a six period class schedule or five classes in
a seven class schedule in the immediate

director, principal, a parent, a coach from another program, an additional
teacher, and the teacher from the class where the student is failing.
ARTICLE VI DUE PROCESS
Disciplinary
procedures of this code are established to provide a fair and consistent manner
of implementing sanctions. It is the responsibility of the advisor/coach
to impose disciplinary measures. In the case of an exclusion for more than the
remainder of the day, the athletic director will be included in this
decision-making process. Prior to the exclusion of a student for more than the
remainder of the day, the student will be verbally advised of the alleged
violation and have an opportunity to respond in a conference with the coach and
athletic director. If an exclusion is
justified after the conference, the student and parents will be notified of the
exclusion imposed.
Appeals –

aggrieved by the imposition of a discipline for violations of these rules and
regulations, shall have the right to an informal conference with the coach,

days prior notice to the principal. (The student shall be responsible for
presenting his/her case.)
