The purpose of the Southern Columbia Area High School Student Handbook is togive school district students and their parents/guardians an understanding of thegeneral rules and guidelines for attending and receiving an education at SouthernColumbia Area High School.In case of conflict between a board policy and the provisions of this handbook, theboard policy most recently adopted by the board will prevail.Students and parents/guardians should be aware that this document is reviewedannually, because policy adoption and revision is an ongoing process. The changesgenerally will supersede the provisions found in the handbook, which will becomeobsolete by the newly adopted policy. The handbook is not a contract between theschool and parents/guardians or students. It can be amended at any time at thediscretion of the district. If policy changes are enacted during the school year, theadministration will communicate those changes to students, staff andparents/guardians.Paul R. CaputoHigh School Principal
