the school or school property.

under suspension or expulsion from the school or District);
1.3 Students and staff from other schools who are participating in school
sponsored or sanctioned activities;

grounds;
1.5 Law enforcement officers in exercise of their duties;
1.6 All persons with legitimate business at the school who proceed directly to the
school’s main office and secure permission from the Principal or designate to
remain on the premises.
2. Where a District employee has cause to believe that a person is on District property
without authorization, the following procedure is to be followed:
2.1 The employee shall indicate his/her name and determine the status of the
