Records of Serious Violations

The Superintendent/designee will prepare and maintain records of serious violations of the District's discipline policy.  Individual student records are available to school employees who are directly responsible for the student's education or who interact with the student in the performance of the employee's duties.  In addition, such discipline records will be made available within five (5) days to any requesting school district where the student seeks to enroll.

The District will report, in compliance with state regulations, the number, duration of and reasons for expulsions and suspensions of more than ten (10) days.  The Superintendent will also notify the appropriate division of the Juvenile court of the suspension for more than ten (10) days of any student under court jurisdiction.

Reporting Safety Threats to Department of Elementary and Secondary Education

The District will begin reporting all school safety events and credible school safety threats that occur at each District facility upon issuance of DESE’s reporting procedures.  Such reportable incidents include school shootings, credible threats of school shootings as well as threats and incidents involving firearms, explosives, knives, or other weapons as defined in Regulation 2620.  District safety incident reporting will be consistent with DESE’s forthcoming procedures.

DESE will maintain a database of statewide school safety incidents.  This database will contain only aggregate data of District information.  The DESE database will not contain personally identifiable information, and the aggregate data will be available to the public.

Reporting Agreements with Law Enforcement Agencies

The Board of Education may enter into reporting agreements with law enforcement officials concerning the criminal acts listed in Policy 2673. Such agreements will provide for reporting and such criminal offense to the Children’s Division rather than law enforcement if the student is under eleven years of age.
