Student ID's

Safety is a priority here at CRHS. The expectation is that all students have their picture Student ID on when they enter the building and the entire day. Early Release students need to keep their ID on until they exit the building for the day.  As it is very important for students to wear their picture ID, we are enforcing a new procedure regarding Temp IDs.

• If a student does not have their Student ID when they come to school, students need to go to the nearest AP office to get a Temp ID before 1st period begins.  Beginning the 3^rd week of the school year, students will be allowed to receive 5 free Temp IDs in a six-week period, no matter what time of the day they get the ID.
• Once a student has used their 5 free Temp IDs, the cost will be $1.00 for every Temp ID issued after five regardless of the time of day.  When a student reaches 10 Temp IDs issued in a six-week period, they will receive a 1 hour after-school detention for failure to comply with the district policy.
• If you have lost your pictured Student ID and need a new one printed, please go to any AP office and request a new one.  The cost for a new picture ID is $5.00.
• Students must wear their ID above the waist, and it must be visible.  Students may no longer attach the ID to their backpack. Failure to comply will result in a consequence.

Discipline for Tardies:

• 1 - 3 Tardies =         No consequence
• 4 - 6 Tardies =         1 hour after school detention (ASD)
• 7 - 9 Tardies =         2 hours after school detention (ASD)

• 13+ Tardies  =         a level 3 offense (3.26) Persistent Level 2 offenses which will result In-School-Suspension (ISS)
• 8 or more tardies in six weeks for a class will result in an "N" in conduct. This will cause a loss of exemptions for that class.
