Any administrator or district police officer can refuse to allow, or may reject any person from property under the district’s control.

If the person refuses to leave peacefully and either:

1. Poses a substantial risk of harm to any person; or
2. Behaves in a manner that is inappropriate for a school setting.

Process:

• A verbal warning is issued that the behavior is inappropriate and may result in refusal of entry, or ejection.
• If the person persists after the warning, the person may be refused entry or ejected.

District/Campus Responsibilities:

• Keep a record of each verbal warning that includes the person’s name and date
• At the time of refusal or ejection, the district will provide written information explaining the appeal process
• The term of the refusal cannot exceed two years
• If this happens to the parent of a student, the school must accommodate the parent so that they can participate in ARD or 504 meetings.
• There must be a notice about this, including the appeal process, posted on the district’s website and the website of each campus.

Appeal process (appeals must be filed within 10 days of written response)
