GENERAL FACTS AND PROCEDURES

A. Academic Load and Grade Level Classification Credits

Refer to Lee County School Policy LC-105, approved April 11, 2005. The academic load for each student will be defined as the minimum number of courses and/or credits in/for which a student may enroll annually. The maximum number of courses/credits is seven (7). The minimum number is six (6) plus one study hall, provided one is available. Otherwise the minimum number is seven (7). The only exceptions are: seniors who do not need the sixth course/credit to graduate may enroll in five (5) classes with “early release” and marketing co-op students who may leave after 3 rd period (seniors) or 4 th period (juniors or seniors) if they have met all SOL requirements.

The following number of credits is required for grade level classification:

Grade Level
Grade
Number of Credits
Freshman 09 0-5
Sophomore 10 6-11
Junior 11 12-17
Senior 12 18+

B. Accidents

All accidents/injuries must be reported to the student’s immediate supervisor before the student leaves school for the day. A school insurance policy offers secondary coverage for all students; however, it is the responsibility of the student to have the necessary form completed by school officials. These forms are in the main office.

C. Activity Fee

A five-dollar ($5.00) activity fee is required of each student to help with yearly expenses incurred on behalf of each student.

D. Alternative School

An alternative form of education is available for certain students.

E. Announcements

Oral announcements are made during designated times during the school day. All announcements must be written, dated, signed by a teacher or administrator, and given to the school secretary prior to the beginning of the school day. Only emergency announcements will be made during instruction time. Written announcements are distributed daily.

F. Appeals

See form in Appendices.

G. Arrival at School (back to top)

Students discharged from a bus will enter the building through the main entrance doors. Students who drive will enter the building through the north doors by the student parking lot. Certain areas of the school are off limits before the first bell. Students will have access to the lobby, Commons, guidance, and the Media Center. A bell at 8:00 A.M. announces entry to the remainder of the building and the vocational bridge. Students arriving to school after 8:15 A.M. will report to the Attendance Office located in the main lobby. Students arriving to school after first period will report to the Lee High office. Students who arrive late to school and do not check into the office will be counted absent. Students will not be admitted to class without a tardy slip. Excuses for each tardy to school are to be given to the Attendance Office within three days.

H. Breakfast and Lunch Program (back to top)

Meal service at Lee High School is approved by federal and state agencies. Our Food Service is routinely monitored for quality. The Lee County School Board according to federal and state guidelines determines meal prices. Federal guidelines will be used to determine if students are eligible for free or reduced meals. All students are encouraged to make application for such service. Students are issued an identification number, which will be keyed into a computer before the student exits the food service line. No one may charge a meal.

Students are offered several menu choices. Menus are printed in the local newspaper, posted in each classroom and printed daily on the morning written announcements. Students may choose one entrée item, two-vegetables/two fruits/or one vegetable and one fruit, one bread (which may be in combination with the entrée, for example, hot dog or pizza), one dessert and one milk. Items from the Free Bar may be chosen as desired. These items are free of cost with a free, reduced or purchased meal. Food items must be kept in their original containers until the lunch line is exited. Additional milk or entrée items may be purchased.

I. Career Media Center

Career information is available in a specially designated area of the Media Center.

J. Class Officers and Elections (back to top)

Class officers, Mr./Miss LHS candidates, Homecoming candidates, and Student Council representatives are nominated with elections being held at designated times throughout the school year. Class presidents are automatically SCA reps. The following requirements are observed for all candidates during the nomination/election process:

Other clubs, organizations, activities may have stricter requirements.

Procedures for becoming a class officer or SCA officer:

Election procedures for Mr. LHS, Miss LHS, and Football Homecoming, etc.:

All nominees and elected officers represent Lee High School. Officers preside over class meeting, conduct business, guide goals and projects, and cooperate with their sponsors and administration for the betterment of Lee High School. SCA officers represent LHS at conventions and other public functions. They act as liaisons with administration, students, faculty and community. Class offices are: president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer and three SCA representatives. SCA officers are: president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer and historian.

K. Class Rank

Grade Point Averages (gpa) will be used to determine class rank. This is calculated by dividing the quality points total by the total number of courses taken. All seniors will be ranked.

L. Class Rings (back to top)

Class rings orders are taken early in the school year for full-fledged juniors and seniors only. A deposit is required at the time the ring is ordered. Anyone ordering a ring that is not entitled to do so may lose the deposit.

M. Course Offerings (back to top)

See the Guidance Department for the official listing of course offerings. Summer school courses may not be used to allow for early graduation. Summer school courses will be accepted after the student completes four full years at the high school level. The exception to this would be dual credit courses and/or Governor’s School courses taken during the summer with the prior approval of the principal. No Advanced Placement or Dual Enrollment courses will be accepted from transfer students unless the same courses are offered at the school to which they are transferring. If the course is not offered as AP or DC, the grade will be recorded as an Honors Course or Regular Course depending upon what is offered. Students must take the AP Placement exam in order to receive weighted credit. Full payment for the AP test fee must be paid at the beginning of the course. Courses that are repeated may be replaced only one time.

N. Dances

Dances are sponsored by clubs, organizations and/or classes. A dance must have a sponsor and must have prior approval from the principal. All procedures for the dance will be approved and announced prior to ticket sales. Sponsors are responsible for accounting, chaperoning and cleaning up.

O. Debts (back to top)

A student debt is the legal responsibility of that student and/or his parent/guardian. Debts should be paid as they are incurred. Failure to do so creates an obstacle for issuance of books or participation in various school functions. Debts remain throughout a student’s high school career and are often requested by future employers. Debts are often caused by non-returned uniforms, unaccounted fund raising money, club money, lost or damaged textbooks, lost library materials, damaged or lost school property, etc. If an individual incurs a debt in the name of Lee High School and has not been authorized to do so, Lee High School is not responsible for the debt.

P. Diploma Requirement

Different diplomas have different requirements. See guidance or visit the Virginia Department of Education homepage at:

http://www.pen.k-12.va.us/VDOE/

Q. Directory Information

Should the local school board elect to designate and make public Directory Information, it shall give annual written and public notice indicating the categories of data designated as Directory Information and the right of refusal by a student for the disclosure of such data. After such notice has been given, a reasonable time, not more than fifteen (15) days shall be given for a parent or eligible student to notify the school in writing if any or all such information about the student should not be disclosed without prior consent. In the absence of a request for non-disclosure, the school may disclose such information in accordance with the local school board policy. The school is not required to maintain a record of disclosure of Directory Information. Certain agencies may exchange information with the school on an as-needed basis: Juvenile Court System and the Department of Social Services.

R. Eighteen Years Old

If a student maintains their own household, with proof of such on file in the office and with the Guidance Department, an 18 year old student may check themselves out of school with proper excuses for absences, and to receive mailings pertinent to their school records. Otherwise, an 18-year-old student must follow school rules applicable to all other students.

S. Evacuation Procedures for Fire, Tornado, or Other Emergency

See Lee County Policy. Also, see Section V in this Handbook.

T. Exam Information (back to top)

All students will take first semester exams. All students are expected to take final exams. There may be some exemptions, they are:

The Lee County Code of Conduct and Attendance policy of 13 days of unexcused absence causing failure of a subject or subjects for the year regardless of grades will be strictly enforced.

U. Fund Raising

School organizations should make every effort to keep fund raising to a minimum with no loss of instructional time. All sales and fund raising programs are to be coordinated through the principal/designee by requesting permission to conduct a fundraiser. Such requests are to be made by May 1 st of the previous year for submission to the school board for approval. Sales of candy or food products that would interfere or compete with the school food service are prohibited. Sales or solicitation by non-school groups are prohibited unless prior approval is obtained from the school board.

V. General Store

This is a Marketing Department sponsored business located across from the main office on first floor. The store is operated by Lee High students for educational experience. School related items are available for purchase during posted times, usually before school and during lunch.

W. Grade Promotion/Placement

Grade placement is based on the following total number of credits:

A student will be promoted only one grade level per year. If there are extenuating circumstances or hardship cases which would justify early graduation for the benefit of the student or the student’s family, then the matter would be referred to a school committee which, if approved, would refer the matter to the superintendent for final approval to the Board. If totally approved for early graduation, the student would not be ranked.

X. Graduation Information(back to top)

The senior interview is the graduation declaration. Each prospective graduate must meet with a guidance counselor to review records and to insure that all requirements for graduation are in place. All seniors must complete all the requirements of the senior interview. Guidance will announce all changes, dates, and other pertinent information regarding graduation. The Lee County School Board determines graduation day. See Section IV-W for additional information. Invitations and other supplies may be ordered from the graduate’s dealer of choice; however, the school provides access to one company of their choice to come to the school to take orders. It is through this company that all robes, caps, and tassels must be ordered.

Y. Guidance Services

Counselors are prepared to help students and parents who have question or need assistance with course work, grades, course selections, testing, career planning, college preparation, and personal and/or behavioral problems. Students may see a counselor before or after school, during study hall, or any time for emergencies. Appointments may be made during class with a teacher’s permission. Scholarship opportunities are listed at the beginning of each school year and updated monthly. All announcements are made through every school venue. Guidance personnel conduct interviews to assess student progress and to plan a student/s high school career. Parents and students are required to sign all interviews and scheduling documents.

Z. Hall Passes

Students anywhere in the building during instructional time must have an official school pass. The principal will direct records of such passes. Students from study halls will travel to library or guidance with a special class roster provided by the teacher. White hall passes are provided for students with medical conditions. These medical passes must have a doctor’s approval on file and the pass will be signed by administration. Regular and medical passes are only good for the restroom, a locker, or the office. Media and/or guidance passes are only good for those two destinations. Passes will not be used to go to another teacher’s room, the snack machines, the telephone, across the bridge, the locker room, the field house or the parking lot.

AA. Homebound Policy (back to top)

Virginia Code dictates the procedures for obtaining homebound instruction. Call Lee County School Board Office at 346-2107 for further information


BB. Home Schooling

Regulations for home schooling students are outlined in the Code of Virginia. Contact the Lee County School Board Office at 346-2107 for further information.

CC. Internet Use and Policy

The Internet is to be used for educational purposes only. Access to the Internet through the school’s equipment is a privilege and not a right. As such, your privilege to use the equipment can be revoked for the improper use of the equipment. All students and parents are required to sign an Acceptable Use Policy that more clearly defines proper use of the Internet for educational purposes. Students will not be allowed to use the Internet until the AUP is signed and returned.

DD. Lockers (back to top)

A maintenance fee of $1.00 is charged for each locker. Only a school lock can be placed on a locker. This lock may be purchased in the office at a cost of $4.00 and may be used by the student throughout their high school career. The school retains the right to inspect student lockers for any reason at any time without notice, without student consent or presence, and without a search warrant. Announcements will inform students as to procedures for purchasing and selecting locations of lockers.
EE. Lunch Contracts

Each student must return a completed lunch contract. If guidelines do not apply to a student’s financial situation, the parent must place their signature and the words ‘Not interested’ somewhere on the application. If a student is applying for a free or reduced priced meal service, all required information must be provided. Until contracts are approved during the first few days of the new school year, the previous year’s status will be in effect. If the lunch contract has not been returned to school with proper application within the set limit of time, the student will be charged full price for their meals.

FF. Married Students and/or Emancipated Minors

Married students must file notice of such status with Guidance as soon as possible. Those students who wish to become emancipated minors must file through the Lee County Juvenile Court. Just because a student is married does not mean that student is emancipated. If an emancipation order is entered for any student excusing that student from compulsory attendance in public school, a copy of that order must be filed with Guidance.

The Media Center or Library is open before normal school hours and remains open following the close of school. Hours are posted in the library. Procedures for using the Computer Lab, checking books, study hall visits, Internet use, book policies, and general behavior rules will be posted and will be explained to classes by the staff.

Medications to be taken during the school day must be brought to school by the legal parent/guardian accompanied by an order from a physician. This procedure must also be followed for over the counter meds. All medications must be kept in the office, unless the physician orders certain items to be kept in the student’s control. Meds are kept in a secure office environment. Documentation of each administration of medicine and/or treatment is kept in the office. Lee High reserves the right to refuse to administer meds to students who will not follow directions. Lee High staff is not responsible for forcing or for reminding students to take their medication. Prudent judgment will direct staff to seek first aid, to call for emergency transportation or to make any necessary decision for the safety and well being of the student. Parents are responsible to supply the school with necessary phone/names of contacts for emergency situations.

Any student entering Lee High School must have evidence of complete immunization. Call the Guidance Department or the Lee County Health Department for a full listing of required immunizations.

Students entering from outside the Commonwealth must also have a birth certificate, a social security card, and proof of a physical examination with immunizations by a licensed physician.

JJ. Parking (back to top)

Student parking is a valued privilege, not a right. Students will comply with driving/parking regulations. Student parking permits are $5.00. Reserved parking is an additional purchase. Permits must be displayed in the vehicle for which it was purchased. Students park in any Lee High parking lot at their own risk. See Appendices for parking application containing additional information.

KK. Physical Education

Students must change clothes for P.E. classes. Clothing must be a tee shirt, shorts or sweatpants and tennis shoes. These items must be comfortable so as to allow participation in all class activities. Personal hygiene is strongly encouraged through use of facilities provided in the dressing rooms. No personal items should be left unattended in the locker room. Locks may be purchased in the office for $5.00. These locks are personal possessions of the student and are to be used on a gym locker only. Neither Lee High nor any teacher is responsible for items left unlocked in the locker room, gym, or dressing room.

LL. Prom

The prom is the responsibility of the junior class. The class sponsors determine class dues in accordance to the success of fundraisers. Bids are taken for catering. See the junior class sponsors for complete knowledge of all procedures related to the prom.

MM. Publications

NN.REPORT CARDS (back to top)

Grade reports are distributed to all students five school days after the end of each grading period unless this date falls on a Friday, then, reports will be distributed on the following Monday. Students and parent/guardian must work together to see that this report is seen by all involved. At the end of the school year, the final grade report will be mailed to the home address on record. It is the responsibility of the parent/student to see if any change of address and/or phone number is correct in the Guidance office. If a grade report does not appear to be official please call the school for verification.

OO. Schedule Changes (back to top)

Refer to Lee County School Policy LC-110. Requests for changes of curriculum, diploma type, etc. must be made by the legal parent/guardian in person. The principal must approve all changes. The administration reserves the right to change a student’s schedule on a case-by-case basis due to changing circumstances if it is deemed in the best interest of the student/school.

PP. Scholastic Awards Program

Each spring near the ending of the school year an awards program honors those students who have excelled in academics. Special awards and scholarships are presented. Attendance recognition is also given to qualifying students. A faculty committee plans, organizes, and schedules the awards program.

QQ. School Finances

Unauthorized expenditure of money is not permitted. All accounts are audited. Any group making a purchase must get approval and signatures of both the sponsor and the principal. Sponsors are responsible to the bookkeeper. All purchases must be on a purchase order signed by the principal. Purchases in excess of $2,000 require at least three bids.

RR. Searches and Seizures

Lee County School Board Policy, the Commonwealth of Virginia Code and regulations of the Lee County Sheriff’s Department will be followed. Students should expect vehicles, lockers, coats, bags, and other carry items to be subjected to searches.

SS. Telephone Use (back to top)

The office telephone is for business only. Pay phones are located in the lobby and in the Commons. These phones are for student use during non-instructional time, except during lunch when students may only use the pay phones in the Commons. Office staff will assist students by phoning in an emergency situation. Neither students nor teachers will be called from classes to answer the phone except in an emergency.

TT. Textbook Rental Agreement

Students and legal parent/guardian assume full responsibility for all books issued to them. They must agree to replace or pay for any or all books, lost, destroyed or damaged beyond normal use. Stolen books are the responsibility of the student/legal parent/guardian. Failure to pay any debt incurred in the rental agreement may forfeit the privilege to use free textbooks the following school year. Students/legal parent/guardians must agree to all terms of the book contract. Certain classes have special equipment or instructional aids provided for students. A separate contract for these items has the same legal status as the textbook rental agreement.

UU. Traffic Control

The following parking flow plan is to be observed:

The following traffic flow plan is to be observed:

VV. Transcripts

Transcripts are requested through the Guidance Department. Transcripts are free to current Lee High students and for one year following graduation. Thereafter, there is a $2 charge per transcript. When a signed request is received from another school for a transcript, we will fill that request without any other mailings of notification.

WW. Trespassing (back to top)

Any person using the school facilities or present on school property without appropriate authorization is considered to be trespassing and may be asked to leave. Refusal to cooperate may result in possible referral to appropriate law enforcement agencies and possible suspension or expulsion of a student. Suspended or expelled students, homebound or home-schooled students who return to school without authorization of an administrator will be considered trespassing. Any visitor/parent who does not check in with the office before moving through the building is considered to be trespassing.

 

All visitors must report to the office immediately upon entering the building and obtain a pass from the principal/designee. Visiting time from professional agencies is welcomed within a time that does not interfere with instruction. Appointments should be prearranged. Any family member or relative wishing to visit a student must make arrangements with the principal prior to the visitation. Non-Lee High students are not permitted as passengers on Lee County buses. Students may not bring friends/relatives to school to attend classes with them, to visit during lunch, or at any other time during the day. Parents are not allowed to visit classrooms during instructional time. Appointments to observe a class may be scheduled with the principal prior to the day of the visit. When visitors are given a pass, it is for a specific place, they are not allowed to wander around the building.

YY. Work Release Program

Any student excused for an early dismissal to travel to a place of employment must sign out in the office and leave the building immediately. They are not allowed to sign out early or to take anyone with them without prior permission.

V. EMERGENCIES (back to top)

Lee County Public Schools has an official emergency procedure handbook adopted in 2004. No publication is complete when attempting to list all possible procedures. There is no substitute for sound judgment and training. Parents and students should have a plan for days when school is dismissed early, when illness occurs, or for any of several situations that could occur during the normal course of daily living. Parents should listen to local radio and television stations for announcements for weather delays or dismissals. Do not call the school or personnel at home; that only ties up the phone and line of procedure for messages.

The Lee High office should be immediately notified of any emergency or potentially dangerous situation located on our campus. Always be alert, be cautious, and act promptly, and most of all use common sense when dealing with any situation.

 

VI. STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS

Participation in student organizations is desirable and encouraged. It is hoped that students will become active members of at least one organization during their high school career. Any student who meets the criteria for membership may become a member by making application and by following the organizational procedures. A student may be a member of more than one organization and may also hold membership in the SCA, Beta Club, and the Pep Club. No student may hold office in more than one organization. Make yourself aware of membership drives, meeting times, and duties of the organization. Don’t be just a face in the yearbook, become active and find your place at Lee High School.

All organizations are subject to sponsorship.(click here for clubs)

VII SPORTS (back to top)

Participation in athletics serves to develop the student emotionally, intellectually as well as physically. Participation develops within the student and within the school, a sense of responsibility, leadership and pride. It promotes sportsmanship, community spirit and a general improvement of physical abilities. To participate on an athletic team requires a student to pass five subjects within the previous semester and to be enrolled in at least five subjects in the current semester. Students must also comply with all rules set forth by the Virginia High School League, rules and regulations outlined in the Lee High School Athletic Handbook and any policy of the Lee County School Board.
