Royal High School Students’ Rights and Responsibilities

Royal High School students, as citizens of the school community, are entitled to all the rights and privileges granted by our democratic society.  The right to an education, however, does allow that schools may legitimately expect students to accept certain responsibilities.  It is important that both students and parents read this document, as they are responsible to know the information.  

When students come to school to learn, they arrive on time with their work done to the best of their ability.  Students present themselves in attire that is not distracting to the learning of others.  Students who want to better themselves ask their peers and teachers for help when necessary and will give help to others.  Role modeling healthy behavior develops leadership skills and lifelong habits that can increase the number and quality of opportunities.  
All students who attend Royal High School shall comply with the written policies, rules, and regulations of the Royal School District; shall pursue the required course of studies; and shall submit to the authority of school staff, subject to such corrective action(s) as identified in the Royal School District/Royal High School Student Discipline Codes. As afforded by Washington Administrative Code, all students have the right to due process.

Overview of Student Rights

Each student attending Royal High School has the right to:

  • An equal educational opportunity, free of discrimination because of national origin, immigration status, race, religion, sexual orientation, gender, pregnancy, marital status, or an identified learning need.
  • Be secure in his or her person, papers, and effects from unreasonable search and seizures.
  • Free expression and assembly subject to reasonable limitations and identified procedures for exercising such rights.
  • Be free from unlawful interference in his or her pursuit of an education while in the custody of a school authority.

Overview of Student Responsibilities

Each student attending Royal High School has the responsibility to:

  • Attend school daily and be on time to class with all necessary materials.
  • Know and obey the rules of the district and the school.
  • Accept reasonable consequences for violating school or district rules.
  • Respect the rights of others, as not to disrupt or deprive others of their right to an education.
  • Respect the property of others, of the school, and the district; and be willing to make restitution for property damaged.  

Mental Health Resources

Safety comes first in our school, and we believe that only through healthy levels of physical, social, and emotional safety can our students learn at high levels.

Counseling services are available for any student that is seeking additional support or mental health services. School counselors visit classrooms regularly to promote and inform students that they are readily available. Grant County Mental Health Services is also available for students who are seeking services outside of school or needing additional counseling services during the school week. There is also a school psychologist that is readily available for students as well. Please see your school counselor for further assistance.

The Counseling Department aims at promoting a positive level of awareness among our student population when it comes to educating and creating awareness on mental health illnesses throughout the school year. Students are also encouraged to talk to their counselors about any concerns they might have about themselves or about another classmate or friend. No student or person is ever alone. As a school, we are here for our students.

This school year, we also have a Behavior Interventionist at our school who will help assist with SHIELD by providing another layer of support for students in need.

If a staff member is concerned about a student, he or she may, in addition to discussing concerns with the student, refer that student to one of our school counselors for further assistance.  If a parent is concerned about his or her child or another student, please contact the high school to discuss your concerns with one of our school counselors.  See phone numbers for outside resources.

If a student has a valid reason for arriving late to school, the student must check in at the main office with a note. Students will be given a tardy slip. If a student does not show up to class in a timely manner, the teacher needs to mark them as absent.

Check-Out

If a student has a valid reason for leaving while school is in session, the student must sign out at the attendance desk in the main office and submit parent/guardian permission to office staff.
  1. Any student who has an appointment during the school day must submit a note or have a parent/guardian call to the attendance office prior to leaving.
  2. The attendance office will issue a new note to the student to be presented to the classroom teacher in order to be dismissed from class.

If the student/parent follows the pre-approval process, the parent is not required to physically sign out the student.  The pre-excused note will serve as parent permission.

If the student/parent fails to follow the pre-approval process, the parent will need to physically sign out the student at the attendance desk. 

If students do not check-in or check-out in the attendance office, they will be considered truant, and they will not be excused.

If a student leaves campus during lunch and does not return to school due to illness, a parent must call prior to the student leaving to excuse the student for not returning for the remainder of the day. 


Dress Code


ASB Cards and Student Fees:

ASB cards are FREE.  This card entitles the student to free admission to all regular home athletic contests.

All fees and/or previous fines must be paid before participation in any school performance, trip or after school practice.


Parking

Students with a valid driver’s license are allowed to drive to school and park in the high school student designated parking areas.  The Royal School District considers this a privilege, not a right.  Therefore, students must adhere to the following guidelines:
  1. All drivers must comply with driving laws, which include proof of insurance, valid registration, and adherence to posted speed limits.
  2. Reckless driving on school grounds will result in a loss of parking privileges on campus based upon the severity of the situation.
  3. Students CAN NOT park in STAFF designated parking areas. Staff parking is in the first row, closest to the school. Students parking in STAFF parking will be contacted and may lose the right to park on school property. PLEASE BE CONSIDERATE. 

The following procedures will be used to enforce the above parking policy:

  1. Students will be warned of his actions and parents will be contacted.
  2. Law enforcement will be contacted.

Emergency Procedures:

Evacuations:

When an emergency within a school or department necessitates total or partial closure of the schools within the district, threatens the safety and well-being of students, and/or interferes in the normal operation of the school. (District Policy and Procedure 3432)

Emergency procedures are posted in each classroom.  At the fire alarm signal, all students and faculty must leave the building via the posted emergency exit routes. Students must clear the building.

Secure and Teach or Lockdown:

Secure and Teach is initiated to isolate students and staff inside the school from potential dangers outside the school. Secure and Teach is typically used when events in the vicinity of the school may pose a threat. 

Lockdown is initiated to isolate students and staff from immediate dangers which may include armed intruders, violent behaviors, suspicious trespassers, on-campus shootings, bomb threat, sniper, or nearby police activity. (District Policy and Procedure 3432)

In the event of any situation requiring an emergency lockdown, the following procedures will be followed:

  1. Students need to get into the nearest classroom. 
  2. All students will remain in their classrooms until further notice.
  3. The classroom teacher will take roll to determine who is missing, or added.
  4. The classroom teacher will secure and lock your classroom door.
  5. Then notify the office of lockdown compliance.

Student Contact and Deliveries

Deliveries to Students

Deliveries to students such as flowers, food, balloons, candy, birthday gifts, etcetera, will be delivered the last 5 minutes of the day and/or a note will be delivered to the student communicating to the student that they can pick up the delivery at the end of the school day.  

Messages to Students

Royal High School’s focus is on student learning and our school will focus on minimizing the impact of disruptions during class time.  Messages will be delivered during the last five minutes of class time. Arrangements must be made with students before or after school. 

Disruptive Devices and Valuables

Large sums of money and valuables must be left at home. Articles of value for class display should be locked in a teacher's cabinet or checked in at the main office.  If students bring any valuable item/s to school, they do so AT THEIR OWN RISK.

School personnel will take no responsibility for confiscated items.

The school and school district assume absolutely no responsibility for loss of students' personal property. Tablets, iPods, laptop computers, cameras, cell phones, and personal gaming devices, are not to be brought to school.  School personnel will not be required to investigate the loss or theft of those items.  Failure to adhere to this policy may result in disciplinary action.  

School Dances

Attendance at School Sponsored Dances 

Appropriate attire is required to attend all dances.  RHS administration reserves the right to refuse entrance to any function based on a student’s attire. Hats, masks, chains or other accessories such as these are not permitted at school sponsored dances.   

Dances sponsored by Royal High School are intended for Royal High School students. If a RHS student would like to bring an individual who is not a student at Royal High School, the guest approval process must be completed.  The guest approval form must be completed and submitted within established timelines.  Submission of the guest form does not guarantee that the guest will be admitted to the dance.  RHS administration reserves the right to deny guest approval based on information retrieved through a background check. If admitted, the guest will be required to present his/her photo ID at the dance entrance. Royal High School students seeking approval to attend non RHS dances must submit the host school’s guest approval form to RHS administration. The RHS administration will only approve students who are in “good standing”. Good standing is defined as a 2.0 GPA and no discipline within the last 6 months.

Search and Seizure (R.C.W. 28A.600.230)

School authorities may seize any contraband substance or object, the possession of which is illegal, or any material or object, which violates school rules or poses a hazard to the safety and good order of the school.  

School officials have the authority to conduct a search of the following when reasonable suspicion exists that the student is in possession of illegal or unauthorized items:

  1. A student’s person and/or personal effects.
  2. Student vehicles while on school property.
  3. Student lockers and storage areas.

Royal High School and its surrounding campus (including the school parking lots) are routinely searched by trained and certified detection canines. Classrooms, mixing areas, and student property searches will be completed by canines after students have been removed from the area.

COMPLAINT OPTIONS: DISCRIMINATION AND SEXUAL HARASSMENT

If you believe that you or your child have experienced unlawful discrimination, discriminatory harassment, or sexual harassment at school, you have the right to file a complaint.
 
Before filing a complaint, you can discuss your concerns with your child’s principal or with the school district’s Section 504 Coordinator, Title IX Officer, or District Compliance Officer, who are listed above. This is often the fastest way to resolve your concerns.

Complaint to the School District

Step 1. Write Out Your Complaint

In most cases, complaints must be filed within one year from the date of the incident or conduct that is the subject of the complaint. A complaint must be in writing. Be sure to describe the conduct or incident, explain why you believe discrimination, discriminatory harassment, or sexual harassment has taken place, and describe what actions you believe the district should take to resolve the problem. Send your written complaint—by mail, fax, email, or hand delivery—to the district superintendent or civil rights compliance coordinator.

Step 2: School District Investigates Your Complaint

Once the district receives your written complaint, the coordinator will give you a copy of the complaint procedure and make sure a prompt and thorough investigation takes place. The superintendent or designee will respond to you in writing within 30 calendar days—unless you agree on a different time period. If your complaint involves exceptional circumstances that demand a lengthier investigation, the district will notify you in writing to explain why staff need a time extension and the new date for their written response.

Step 3: School District Responds to Your Complaint

In its written response, the district will include a summary of the results of the investigation, a determination of whether or not the district failed to comply with civil rights laws, notification that you can appeal this determination, and any measures necessary to bring the district into compliance with civil rights laws. Corrective measures will be put into effect within 30 calendar days after this written response—unless you agree to a different time period.

Appeal to the School District

If you disagree with the school district’s decision, you may appeal to the school district’s board of directors. You must file a notice of appeal in writing to the secretary of the school board within 10 calendar days after you received the school district’s response to your complaint. The school board will schedule a hearing within 20 calendar days after they received your appeal, unless you agree on a different timeline. The school board will send you a written decision within 30 calendar days after the district received your notice of appeal. The school board’s decision will include information about how to file a complaint with the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI).

Complaint to OSPI

If you do not agree with the school district’s appeal decision, state law provides the option to file a formal complaint with the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI). This is a separate complaint process that can take place if one of these two conditions has occurred: (1) you have completed the district’s complaint and appeal process, or (2) the district has not followed the complaint and appeal process correctly.
 
You have 20 calendar days to file a complaint to OSPI from the day you received the decision on your appeal. You can send your written complaint to the Equity and Civil Rights Office at OSPI:
Email: [email protected] ǀ Fax: 360-664-2967
Mail or hand deliver: PO Box 47200, 600 Washington St. S.E., Olympia, WA 98504-7200
 
For more information, visit our website, or contact OSPI’s Equity and Civil Rights Office at 360-725-6162/TTY: 360-664-3631 or by e-mail at [email protected].
