General Information/Policies

Students who walk, ride a bicycle, or skate to school will be dismissed with pick-up students prior to the dismissal of busses. Students who ride bicycles to school are to practice good safety habits at all times. Helmets should be worn. Bicycles are to be walked to and from the bicycle rack area and off school grounds. Violation of this rule may result in the loss of the privilege of bringing a bicycle to school. The school is not responsible for the damage or theft of bicycles.

Students are not permitted to use in-line skates (i.e. “rollerblades, skateboards, roller-shoes & scooters”) on school property. Students who choose to use these items for transportation to school must remove and carry them before entering the school driveway, parking lot or sidewalks. These items should be placed in backpacks during the school day.

Parents who have moved and whose children remain in the same school are required to send a change of address and phone number to us as soon as the move is completed. Changes can also be made through the Infinite Campus parent portal.

Objects that might be considered dangerous are not allowed in school. Toys such as squirt guns, fireworks, rubber bands, cap guns, knives, etc., are not allowed at school. These items will be confiscated. Weapons and look-a-like weapons are not allowed on school grounds. (See D.C. Everest School District Board Policy 5772)

We rely on parents to see that their children are properly dressed for school each day.  Students’ standard of dress and appearance should be a positive reflection of themselves and compatible with an effective learning environment. Dress and appearance should promote respect, responsibility, safety, and honesty. To promote a positive learning environment, presenting a bodily appearance of wearing clothing which is disruptive, provocative, revealing, profane, vulgar, offensive, or obscene, or which endangers the health and safety of the student or others is prohibited.  In addition, garments that publicize tobacco use, alcohol, drugs, do not fully cover torso or low-cut shorts are not acceptable.

According to the D.C. Everest District’s School Board Policy 5530 – Drug Prevention, all schools are to be free of drug and alcohol abuse. Students are not allowed to bring, have in their possession, or use drugs or alcohol on school grounds, on transportation provided by the district, or at school-sponsored functions.
