Junior High School Student Rights and Responsibilities

The Junior High School Student Rights and Responsibilities handbook for 2009-10 (pdf, 160kb) explains the rights and responsibilities of junior high school students regarding student conduct and student discipline actions, as well as general information about school operations. Also included is the Cell Phone Permission Form (pdf, 34kb).

These rights and responsibilities implement:

  • Various state and federal laws
  • The State Board of Education's rules governing student discipline actions
  • Chapter 180-40 of the Washington Administrative Code
  • The policies of the Puyallup School District Board of Directors

Consistent with such laws, rules, and policies, these rights and responsibilities may be supplemented or revised at any time by the administration of the district. Individual schools may also establish more specific standards for student conduct, consistent with these general rights and responsibilities, in student handbooks or other written communications to students.

For more information about student rights and responsibilities at the Puyallup School District, please contact Director of Student Services Barb Pope, (253) 840-8848.
