Reporting to Law Enforcement 

Unless reporting would violate the terms of any memorandum of understanding between the district and local law enforcement, whenever a student engages in conduct which constitutes the commission of any misdemeanor or felony at school, on school property, or at a school supervised activity and/or has been found:

• in possession of a weapon,
• in possession of a controlled substance or illegal drug,
• to have engaged in behavior at school which has resulted in or was substantially likely to have resulted in serious bodily injury to others, or
• threaten to commit violence intending to cause fear, disruption, or evacuation targeting students/staff/visitors on school property regardless of the location of origin
• the principal/superintendent shall report such act to the appropriate law enforcement agency.
• definition of serious bodily injury as, based in part, on 18 U.S.C. 2246(4) – “’serious bodily injury’ means bodily injury that involves a substantial risk of death, unconsciousness, protracted and obvious disfigurement, or protracted loss or impairment of the function of a bodily member, organ, or mental faculty.”
