LUNCH FEES:

Teachers - $2.25 daily

The following are student handbook changes that all students and parents need to know for 2008-2009:

CELL PHONES AND OTHER ELECTRONIC DEVICES : The possession and use of cell phones, cameras and other devices are subject to the following rules:

• They must be kept in locker or car during class time.
• They must be turned off during the regular school day except during lunch or if needed during an emergency.
• They may not be used in any manner that will cause disruption to the educational environment.

The word "cameras" was added. One of the reasons cell phones were banned was because of the camera function.

DUAL CREDIT CLASSES : Woodlawn High School CHSD #205 students have access to Rend Lake College (RLC) dual credit classes. There is a cost for each class, determined by RLC. A student that enrolls in a RLC class must receive a score of “C” or better to receive RLC credit. Specific course requirements will be indicated in the RLC syllabus for the course. Other material may be added at the teacher’s discretion. Students may be subject to asset test scores or other prerequisites prior to enrollment in RLC classes. RLC Dual Credit textbook rental fees, determined by RLC, are currently set at $10.00 per book and must be paid no later than 10 school days after the start of class.

Changed from $5.00 to $10.00

Violations of Dress Code:

1st offense- Warning, removed from class until correction in dress, parent notified.

2nd and subsequent offenses- Sent home with an unexcused absence for the remainder of the day. Parent notified.
