DETENTIONS 

Morning or Afterschool Detentions 

Morning or Afterschool Detentions may be issued by any administrator or faculty member for any misconduct or breaking of school or class rules or regulations.  Students who are issued a detention will be assigned a specific detention date and may be required to stay for up to a maximum of sixty (60) minutes. If a student fails to show up or stay for the duration of any detention, the teacher will complete a Violation Slip and turn it into the Dean of Students. 

Saturday Detentions

All Saturday Detentions are assigned by the Dean of Students for extreme and/or multiple disciplinary violations.  Saturday detention is held from 8:00am-11:00am.  A student must come dressed in appropriate clothing for yard work and cleaning.  If a student is late, dressed inappropriately or is asked to leave detention for any disciplinary reason they will be suspended from school and will not be permitted to return to campus until he or she, along with a parent/guardian meets with the Dean of Students.  Failure to serve an assigned Saturday Detention is considered a serious infraction and may result in probation until Saturday detention is served. Students must pay a $10 fine for each Saturday Detention served.

Causes for receiving a Saturday detention may include, but are not limited to:

• disrespect or defiance toward any School Staff Member
• not following directions of School Staff
• failure to report to teacher detention
• multiple dress code violations
• careless or reckless driving of vehicles on school grounds or near school property. Such behavior could also deprive the student of school parking privileges
• graffiti/writing on desks, walls, bathrooms,
• failure to be in the correct location at the appropriate time
• encouraging or inviting unauthorized visitors to come on campus
• any action in direct conflict with the school philosophy a referral for a Saturday detention is issued by an administrator or faculty member
• extreme and/or multiple disciplinary violations
• unauthorized fund raising or selling of products on campus or at off campus school activities
• any violation a member of the faculty or administration feels merits a Saturday detention
• failure to dispose of trash before school, during break or lunch, and after school.

ANY TYPE OF DETENTION SUPERSEDES ALL OTHER ACTIVITIES INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO:

• extra-curricular activities
• after school and weekend job responsibilities
• personal events

Therefore it is the responsibility of the student to not get a detention if they have after school or weekend obligations. ​
