Policy 524 - Extracurricular and Cocurricular Student Behavior

The purpose of this policy is to set forth the behavior expectations for students who participate in extracurricular and co-curricular activities.

Participation in co-curricular and extracurricular programs of the Wayzata School District is a privilege not a right. Students are expected to demonstrate good citizenship, character, and behavior as a condition of continued participation in such District sponsored activities or for receipt of merit awards reflecting citizenship.

Use of alcohol, abuse of prescription or nonprescription drugs, tobacco, e-cigarettes, physical violence, harassment, and other discriminatory, criminal, or offensive conduct is prohibited and is not consistent with behavioral standards for District students.

The Administration shall develop, implement, and enforce regulations and internal procedures that provide for the investigation, application of consequences, and development of the appropriate skills to change the behavior. An appeals process for consequences for a second violation and beyond is outlined in regulations. District staff and co-curricular and extracurricular program supervisors are expected to cooperate fully in the implementation and enforcement of this policy, the administrative regulations and procedures.
