Northwestern High School - Rock Hill School District

Do not run in the halls; walk briskly to your destination. Loafing or loitering anywhere in the halls is
not permitted. Students are also instructed not to block doorways or hallways, stairwells, or covered
walkways at any time.
EXCESSIVE NOISE
Students are not to engage in horseplay or loud verbal exchanges. Violators will be subject to
disciplinary action.
LOCKERS
Each student is entitled to the use of a locker. Students must keep the lockers locked at all times.
Northwestern will not assume responsibility for the contents of lockers. Students must have a
combination lock before a locker will be issued to them. Students must provide the combination for
any lock used to the administrator. Lockers in D and E building have built in combination locks.
Students are not to share their lockers. Students are to use only those lockers issued to them by the
school. All school lockers are subject to administrative search in the interests of school safety,
sanitation, discipline, enforcement of school regulations, and to be searched by law enforcement
officials on presentation of a proper warrant. Students are responsible for cleaning their lockers at the
end of the school year. All items left in lockers become the property of the school to be disposed of at
administrative discretion. All gym lockers are to remain locked at all times when not under the direct
supervision of the student to whom the locker was issued. Students are not to be in the gym locker
rooms without adult supervision. No personal belongings are to be left outside gym lockers at any
time.
LUNCH PERIOD
Students will be assigned to a specific lunch period by the administration. Students are not permitted to
leave campus for lunch. Students are not to have food delivered to them individually or in groups from
any outside source (including parents/guardians) without prior administrative approval. Students are to
use only the C-building restrooms during lunch periods. Areas will be designated that will be open to
students during lunch. Students are NOT permitted in the hallways of C-building during this time.
Other than for necessary class movements, all stairway areas, including the open stairways/breezeway
between D & E buildings, are off limits during lunch periods. Students choosing to eat outside are to
remain within the main courtyard internal boundaries. These boundaries are indicated in your
handbook campus map.
Students are reminded they are responsible for discarding paper, left over food, drink cans, etc. that
result from eating their lunch. Trash containers are readily available.
