It shall be the policy of the District that a reasonable cooperative effort is maintained between the school administration and law enforcement agencies. Law enforcement officials may be summoned in order to conduct an investigation of alleged criminal conduct on the school premises or during a school-sponsored activity or to maintain the educational environment. They may also be summoned for the purpose of maintaining or restoring order when the presence of such officers is necessary to prevent injury to persons or property. Administrators have the responsibility and the authority to determine when the presence and assistance of law enforcement officers is necessary within their respective jurisdictions. The District's administrators shall at all times act in a manner which protects and guarantees the rights of students and parent(s)/guardian(s) and shall cooperate with law enforcement officials as provided in 8140-R.
School staff members shall be informed annually of the contents of this policy and rules.
