DRAFT HANDBOOK — <strong>ARISE</strong> HIGH SCHOOL 1/2006<br />
Employees should be aware that desks, computers, emails, internet activity sheets, PDA's<br />
and other personal spaces provided by <strong>ARISE</strong> are <strong>School</strong> property, and are subject to<br />
search, if necessary.<br />
CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION - REGARDING STUDENTS<br />
All information relating to students including, names, addresses, contact numbers, and<br />
progress information is confidential information, and may not be shared with unauthorized<br />
parties. All records concerning special education pupils shall be kept strictly confidential<br />
and maintained in separate files.<br />
Please note: The release of unauthorized confidential information may result in immediate<br />
dismissal and the filing of criminal charges. When in doubt, check with an administrator<br />
before releasing information.<br />
CONFLICT OF INTEREST<br />
Employees have an obligation to conduct business within guidelines that prohibit actual<br />
conflicts of interest. Such a conflict occurs when an employee influences a decision that<br />
results in a personal gain for the employee or for a relative as a result of <strong>ARISE</strong>'s business<br />
dealings. For purposes of this policy, a relative is any person who is related by blood,<br />
adoption, or marriage. The Board of Directors has final approval over all compensation for<br />
all <strong>School</strong> staff. Since the Board has members that are either employees themselves, or<br />
relatives of employees, only the outside impartial Board members shall approve<br />
compensation for <strong>School</strong> employees. The Board members with conflicts shall excuse<br />
themselves from both the discussion and voting on these matters. Some of the <strong>School</strong>'s<br />
staff has relatives who are Board members. These staff members are allowed to make<br />
presentations to the outside Board members in order to provide information that is<br />
necessary for good decision making.<br />
No "presumption of guilt" is created by the mere existence of a relationship with outside<br />
firms, however, if such employees have any influence on transactions involving purchases,<br />
contracts, or leases, it is imperative that such be disclosed so that safeguards can be<br />
established to protect all parties.<br />
PERSONAL APPEARANCE<br />
Personal appearance of employees shall be one that emanates pride and professionalism to<br />
correspond with the position held. Neatness and cleanliness are absolutely necessary at all<br />
times. The <strong>School</strong>'s professional image, as well as its atmosphere is maintained, in part, by<br />
the image that each employee presents to students and parents. Please dress accordingly. If<br />
