SAFETY AND SECURITY
FIRST AID: Basic first aid supplies are available in the Attendance Office. If the situation warrants further attention, parents and possibly an EMT will be notified.
HEALTH RECORDS: Updated health and inoculation records are state requirements and must be on file for each student. A student having incomplete health records may be suspended from school until the matter is cleared.
INSURANCE: The Student Accident Insurance Program is provided for all students in archdiocesan/parish secondary schools. This program assists only with medical expenses incurred because of accidental bodily injury sustained by students while attending school, while traveling to and from school, or while participating in a solely school-sponsored activity.
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES: A copy of earthquake and emergency procedures is available upon request in the Discipline Office.
DISASTER DRILLS: Disaster drills (for fire, earthquake, etc.) are conducted once each month. A building disaster plan is on file in the Discipline Office.
STUDENT ILLNESS/ACCIDENT PROCEDURE: Before filing the report of the accident, record the date of the issuance of a claim form. If the claim is made for an accident not occurring on school grounds, an account of the accident should also be written and filed.
Each school must establish a procedure to be followed in case of illness or an accident affecting a student. Usual illness or accidents occurring at school must be reported immediately to the school office. A written report of the circumstances and witness should be made and filed.
A complete and current emergency card is to be available for each student so that if he/she becomes ill or meets with an accident the parent or guardian can be contacted immediately.
STUDENTS ON CAMPUS:
Except for students involved in supervised activities, the only authorized time for students to be on-campus is 7:30am – 3:30pm. Failure to abide by this rule may result in disciplinary action. Due to liability issues, chronic violators may be asked to withdraw from school.
SUPERVISION AFTER HOURS: The school does not provide supervision outside of school hours (7:30 a.m. ‑ 3:30 p.m.). Therefore, students should not arrive on campus before 7:30 a.m. and parents should arrange for their return transportation by 3:30 p.m. Students in any supervised activity must be picked-up at its immediate conclusion. Failure to comply with this policy may result in a request for the student to withdrawal from school or in restriction of participation in future activities as determined by the administration. The only supervised drop off or pick up area during school hours is the BMHS campus.
Students may not leave campus during school hours for any reason. Any exceptions require the permission of the parents and deans. All legal and insurance requirements must be met. Students are not released to strangers or callers without parental consent. This does not apply to release of students to a peace officer.
