Guidelines for Student Behavior
Behavior and Discipline
Students at Whitney Young are expected to conduct themselves in a manner that reflects self-control and concern for others. Remember, you have been carefully selected to attend Whitney Young and your behavior should be that of a serious student who is a credit to himself and his school.
Conduct To and From School
When you are on the street or on public transportation, you are in the public eye and citizens are fully aware you are a student of Whitney Young High School. You are expected to behave in a manner that is reflective of Whitney Young. This behavior includes observations of all laws, respect for the property of others, and showing courtesy and respect for others.
Additionally, you have your rights as a citizen and are encouraged to report any violations of your rights to school authorities so that your trip to school is enjoyable and safe.
Traffic
- When walking to school:
- Obey all traffic signals and regulations.
- Look both ways before crossing a street.
- Cross the street only at crosswalks.
- Do not hitch rides from motorists. It is a violation of the law.
- Respect the personal and property rights of others.
- Start for school early so you have time to arrive promptly.
- When driving an automobile:
- Obey traffic laws.
- Respect the rights of others.
- Be sure your car is in good mechanical condition.
- Remember that the pedestrian has the right of way.
- Never leave the scene of an accident without police permission.
- See Mr. Lattyak regarding parking rules and regulations (See #3 below).
- Parking lot rules & regulations
- All students who drive and park in the school lot must have a student parking permit.
- Numbered stickers were issued in June by lottery to seniors. This sticker must be affixed to the front windshield on the lower left (driver's) side. The cost of registering your car is $40.00. This covers the cost of the sticker and snow removal.
- If you drive and park in the lot daily, once a week or only occasionally, the car that you drive must be registered.
- Student Parking Area
- Student parking is restricted to the far south end of the south lot only. Students are to park in the area near the corner of Laflin & Van Buren only. Students may park in the north end of the north lot if the south areas are filled.
