Handbook Weapons
General Rule A student shall not knowingly possess, handle or transmit any object that can reasonably be considered a weapon at school, on school property or at a school-sponsored event. This policy shall include any weapon, any item being used as a weapon or destructive device, or any facsimile of a weapon. Zero Tolerance Any student found to have brought a weapon to school or is found in possession of a weapon on school grounds shall be immediately removed from the general student population and shall be expelled from attending Sumner County schools for a minimum period of one (1) calendar year. When deemed necessary, a disciplinary committee may recommend expulsion longer than one year. In such cases, the Director of Schools may modify the expulsion requirement on a case-by-case basis. The Director must report each case to the Board at its next regular meeting. Where appropriate, criminal charges will be brought against the student and parents or legal guardian.
