The principal, assistant principal, teacher, media specialist, or others engaged in an administrative or instructional capacity in the public schools, shall be authorized to temporarily detain and question a student under circumstances which reasonably indicate that such a student has committed, is committing, or is about to commit a violation of law. No student shall be temporarily detained longer than is reasonably necessary. Such temporary detention shall not extend beyond the place where it was first affected, or the immediate vicinity thereof. If, at any time after the onset of the temporary detention, probable cause arises that the detained student is unlawfully concealing or has unlawfully concealed stolen or illegal property on his person, or within the student's locker, detention will occur only to the extent necessary to disclose or for the purpose of disclosing the presence of stolen or illegal property. If the search of a temporarily detained student or the student's locker reveals stolen or illegal property, it may be confiscated.
Teachers notify front office when a student has three unexcused absences.
Office sends the parent a notification of absence letter. If the parent DOES NOT call the A.P. within a reasonable amount of time, the A.P. notifies office who then sends out a second letter, registered mail, to the parent requesting the parent to call the A.P. 4.
