CIVIL AND LEGAL RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES

 

It is the policy of the Board of Education of the Placentia-Yorba Linda Unified School District that all students shall enjoy all rights granted them by the Education Code, the Government Code, Title V, and board policies and bylaws. In addition, students have the right to certain procedural processes as such relate to personal conduct and resulting liabilities.

The exercise of civil rights does not extend to the disruption of the educational process or lessening the discipline required to maintain the safety and welfare of the students in the public schools.

The Board of Education further affirms the right and responsibility of the school official to act in loco parentis on behalf of the minor student.
