-
Marion County Public School students are subject to the rules and regulations of the Marion County School Board during the school day and regular school activities; while being transported on school buses or at public expense to and from school or other education facilities; at such time and places including, but not necessarily limited to, school sponsored events, field trips, athletic functions, and other activities where appropriate school personnel have jurisdiction over students. In addition, jurisdictional control over the student may be extended to the immediate vicinity of the school whenever the conduct of the student is deemed to have a detrimental effect on the health, safety, and welfare of other students and/or of the school.
Marion County Public Schools, its staff, administration, and school board commit to implementation of this Code so that disciplinary actions are equitable to all students. Reducing inappropriate behaviors that lead to suspensions, expulsions and arrests will be priority goals for the district.
