Discipline Policy

The Antelope Valley Union High School District operates on a Zero Tolerance policy towards weapons, drugs, graffiti, hate crimes, and sexual harassment. Students who are involved in any of the above are subject to suspension or expulsion from school as per California Education Codes 48900 and 48915. If you would like a copy of this code, please call our security office. Copies of these violations are posted in each classroom..

Pocketknives, hunting knives, razor blades, letter openers, and other such dangerous objects are included under the prohibition against weapons listed in Discipline #7. Recommendation for expulsion and referral to the Sheriff's Department may result.

Students found in out-of-bounds areas or in parking lots will be issued Saturday School or OCD as per Discipline Policy. Students are allowed in the parking lots before and after school only. Students out of class without a pass will be taken to the On-Campus Detention room for the remainder of that period per Discipline Policy.

Sheriff Deputy Liaison: A full-time Los Angeles County Deputy Sheriff is stationed at each school in the AVUHSD. The Deputy works in conjunction with the security staff and has all powers granted to him/her by the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department. The Deputy has the power of arrest for violations of all applicable criminal codes.

Dress Code Violations: Violations are serious and consequences severe. Our goal is to prepare students for future employment and to provide a safe and secure campus. All staff will enforce all items..
