HARASSMENT AND BULLY POLICY
Our Catholic faith reminds us that every person is a gift from God, worthy of love and
respect. Therefore, harassment in any form, including but not limited to race, gender,
religious belief, nationality, disability or sexual orientation, both verbal and non-verbal,
is prohibited. Any unsolicited, offensive behavior such as jokes, insults, innuendos,
propositions, threats, gestures, touching, assault, display of pictures, offensive text
messages, emails, and/or social media will not be tolerated. All harassment should be
reported immediately to a teacher, counselor or the Assistant Principal. The complaint
will be investigated. Disciplinary action against a student(s) may include: detention,
demerits, Saturday school, suspension, expulsion and/or notification of legal authorities.
PREGNANCY POLICY
Should a student become pregnant, the parent must contact the school and meet with the
school nurse, guidance counselor, and members of the administration. The student may
remain in school as long as the family presents evidence of counseling and prenatal care
visits. If the father of the child is a student at Archbishop Carroll High School he must
meet the same requirements. Co-curricular activities for both students will be curtailed
as deemed fit by the administration.
GENDER IDENTITY POLICY
In Catholic schools, all curricular and extra-curricular activity is rooted in and consistent
with the principles of Catholic doctrine. Archbishop Carroll High School:
Supports students with gender dysphoria by treating them with sensitivity, respect,
mercy, and compassion. Requires that participation on school teams be according to
biological sex. Requires that names and pronouns be in accordance to biological sex.
Designates Catholic sex education, uniforms and gender appropriate dress, bathrooms,
locker rooms, showers, and sleeping accommodations on trips according to biological
sex. Maintains names in school records according to the student’s biological sex.
Provides reasonable accommodation to a private bathroom for use by any student who
desires increased privacy.
ADDITIONAL MISCELLANEOUS ADMINISTRATIVE POLICIES:
1. Address: Students will notify the office immediately regarding a change of
address, parish, phone number, custody, or public school district.
2. Student ID’s must be in the student’s possession at all times. Students in violation
of this policy will receive a demerit. Replacement badges cost $5.00
3. School Closings and Delays: When the decision is made to close or delay school,
the automated calling system will be activated and TV stations will be notified.
