Adult High School Code of Conduct
Adult High School students are regulated by the PJC College Code of Conduct which may be found in
the PJC Catalog. A copy of the catalog is available for student use in the
Student Services or Administration offices. Appropriate student behavior and
dress is a matter of common sense and good judgment. The display of courtesy
and respect to fellow students, faculty/staff, administration, and law
enforcement officials is expected of all students. The Adult High School's rules
and regulations have been established to ensure that all students will be able
to enjoy a safe and orderly school climate and enhance the opportunity of all
students to be successful in achieving their high school diplomas. All students
are expected to know and follow these rules that include, but are not limited
to, the following:
- Students are not allowed to loiter in the hallways or outside the building except during class changes, lunch hour, and evening class breaks. Students who must wait for rides may do so for up to 15 minutes after class is over. After 15 minutes, students must wait for rides anywhere except in the Adult High School vicinity. These students should inform their driver as to where to pick them up. Students should not arrive to the building earlier than 15 minutes before class time. Students loitering on campus will be suspended from classes.
