Lunch Policy

 

1. Outdoor lunch is a privilege, not a right.  Lunch is 50 minutes in length. Students must exit and return using the main lobby exit. Students’ can have their NuKase unlocked upon exiting the building, and must have their cellphone relocked in the NuKase upon re-entry to the school building.

2. All students are allowed to go out for lunch and/or may go to the cafeteria for lunch. 

3. You are also allowed to stay in a classroom and work with a teacher while you eat lunch.

4. Food and drink purchased outside of the school may be brought into the school for students to eat either in the cafeteria or in a teacher’s classroom.  No food or drink, except bottled water, may be brought back to class after the lunch period has ended.  No exceptions!

5. If a student returns late from lunch, these are the disciplinary measures that will be taken by the school:

   1. First Offense:  One day of lunch detention on the following school day

   2. Second Offense:  One day of lunch detention on the following school day

   3. Third Offense:  One day of lunch detention on the following school day and phone call to parent

   4. Fourth Offense:  Loss of outside lunch privileges for the remainder of the marking period, but no less than two weeks.

   5. If students on lunch detention do not show up, it will result in additional days of lunch detention and may result in loss of outside lunch privileges for up to the entire 4 year high school experience and a Principal’s Suspension.

   6. Further violations of the lunch policy may result in a Principal’s or Superintendent’s Suspension and loss of outside lunch privileges for up to the entire 4 year high school experience. 

 

There are no exceptions to this policy under any circumstances!

Lunch Detention for Lateness

Any student who arrives late to school, will be required to serve lunch detention on that same day. You will not receive a detention slip during your 3rd period class. Your awareness that you are late serves as your notice that you have detention on that day. You are required to either report to the cafeteria or a staff members' classroom/office where you must remain for the entirety of the lunch period. It is also your responsibility to inform that staff member that you have lunch detention and need to be signed in. Also note that there is a 10 minute grace period for 1st period, but no grace period for students whose first class is 2nd period (10:00 am).

 

Failure to comply with these rules and expectations will result in an additional day of detention for each day that you do not attend your lunch detention, and can result in suspension of outside lunch privileges for the remainder of the marking period, semester, or school year.

 

Lastly, no student should go to see AP Ligator to discuss their detention when they are scheduled to be in a class. She will only discuss lunch detention with a student immediately after 4th period, or during a student's free period.
