Be Respectful

What to do if...
I lost my lock: The cost to the school to replace a lost or damaged lock is $8. The office and staff will issue a new lock to a student and welcomes cash or check donations to help cover the cost. I can’t open my locker: Seek help from a nearby adult; office staff and your advisory teacher can also assist. My locker is far away: Be strategic about planning when you go to your locker; once in the morning, once around lunch time, and at the end of the day usually works for most people. Using a single binder for multiple classes helps avoid unnecessary trips. Avoid things getting lost, stolen, and/or unaccessible by using only your locker!
I believe someone knows my combination: In most cases, this can be prevented by keeping your combination private and not sharing it with a friend. If a friend asks to share a locker with you remind them of the expectations. Listen to their concerns help help them problem solve - maybe they forgot their combination and need encouragement to ask an adult! Maybe they struggle to get to class on time so give them a gentle reminder to wrap up a conversation and move more purposefully through the halls.
