Code No.  802.6 

VANDALISM

The board believes everyone should treat school district buildings and sites and property with respect for the benefit of the education program.  Users of school district property will treat it with care. Employees discovering vandalism should report it to the building principal as soon as possible.

Persons under the jurisdiction of the school district and suspected, found or proven to have destroyed or otherwise harmed school district property may be subject to discipline by the school district, and may be reported to local law enforcement officials.  Persons who are not under the jurisdiction of the school district and who are suspected, found or proven to have destroyed or otherwise harmed school district property will be reported to the local law enforcement authorities.
