Arrests. a. When possible and appropriate, arrest by police should be made during non-school hours and away from school premises. This excludes on site arrests made by a School Resource Officer pursuant to normally assigned duties. b. Arrest on school premises during school hours should be undertaken in such a manner as to avoid embarrassment to the student being arrested and to avoid jeopardizing the safety and welfare of other students. c. In the event a physical arrest must be made during school hours, the principal or designee should summon the student to his/her office before surrendering the student. Unless the safety of the students and school staff will be compromised if an arrest is delayed, the officer should not appear in the classroom to make the physical arrest. d. If the student is to be surrendered to the custody of the police officer, the principal or designee should record the name and organization of the officer, the time the officer leaves the school, the destination (police station, detention facility, or Family Court) and the offense for which the arrest was made. A substantial effort should be made by the principal or designee to immediately contact the parent(s) or guardian(s) of the student of any contact by the police. If the student is arrested and removed from the premises before such contact is made, the police and the principal or designee each have the responsibility for that notification.
