3. Inspectors are searching for illegal drugs, controlled substances, weapons, and other items of contraband.
4. Law Enforcement officials will be contacted when contraband is found.
5. Parents will be contacted in the event of an offense.
6. Searches often result in discipline offenses for tobacco products and
other less threatening items of contraband.
Detention
1. PRINCIPAL detentions are held from 3:35 until 5:00 p.m. Failure
to complete the detention assignment may result in ISS or OSS.
2. TEACHER detentions may be assigned before school and
after school. Teachers have latitude in determining the length of
their detentions.
* Students will be given 24 hours notice for before school and after school detentions so they can make arrangements for transportation.
Rules for Detentions
Students must:
1. Arrive on time or they will not be admitted.
2. Have school work to do or appropriate reading material.
3. Stay the entire length of the assigned detention, or they are counted
absent for detention.
4. Adhere to all school rules. Detention is an extension of the regular
school day and school policies and procedures are enforced, including but not limited to cell phones, electronic devices, and dress policies.
5. Remain alert and quiet. Students are not permitted to talk or sleep. 6. All purses, book bags, hats, jackets, etc. must stay beneath the desk;
not on the desktop or in your lap. Only items necessary for your school work are allowed on the desktop.
Dress Code
The orderly conduct of the educational process requires that the clothing and grooming of students not be distracting, disruptive, or provocative. The teaching staff and dress code committee of Spartanburg School District Five believe that students who have positive self-concepts tend to be better students and, consequently, better citizens when their formal education has been completed.
