High school students who have a valid driver’s license may operate a Class 3 e-bike while wearing a helmet and adhering to all speed and traffic laws. All other students may operate unmodified Class 1 and Class 2 e-bikes while wearing a helmet and adhering to all speed and traffic laws. Additional details about the use of e-bikes and scooters is included in each school’s “E-Bike & Micro Mobility Regulation,” which is available on each school’s website (Click here for our 2025-2026 CHS Student Handbook).

The William S. Hart Union High School District is not responsible for any lost, stolen, or damaged bicycles, e-bikes, scooters, skateboards, or related equipment on or near campus. Students are solely responsible for securing their personal transportation devices with a reliable lock and following all safety and parking guidelines.

ATTENDANCE MATTERS

Regular attendance helps students keep up with the curriculum, build strong relationships with their peers and teachers, and develop a routine that fosters responsibility and discipline. These are essential skills that will benefit them throughout their lives.

Parents/Guardians, if your child will be picked up before 3rd and 4th period (brunch) or before lunch, please email the Attendance Office at [email protected] BEFORE 10:40 a.m. and 12:20 p.m. respectively stating the name of your child, date

and time of leaving, and reason for leaving early and have your child pick up their pass from the Attendance Office located in the Administration Building (next to Reception) during brunch or lunch - an “Off Campus Pass” will be given to them and they will be in the office ready to go at the time specified. Unfortunately, we will not be able to deliver passes.

Please note that absolutely NO LAST - MINUTE check outs - no student will be released after 2:30 p.m. Also, we will not release any students with phone calls. In the event of an emergency, you may come in to sign your child out through the Attendance Office.

Padres/Guardianes, si van a recoger a su hijo(a) antes del 3er o 4to período (merienda) o antes de el almuerzo, por favor envíen un correo electrónico a la Oficina de Asistencia a la siguiente dirección: [email protected] ANTES de las 10:40 a.m. y 12:20 p.m. respectivamente indicando el nombre de su hijo(a), la fecha y hora de salida, y el motivo del porqué necesita salir temprano y hagan que su hijo(a) recoja su pase en la Oficina de Asistencia que se encuentra en el edificio de Administración (a la par de Recepción). Puede recoger su pase durante la merienda o el almuerzo y se le entregará un "Pase para fuera del plantel" el cual estará listo para ser entregado a la salida y a la hora especificada. Desafortunadamente, no podremos entregar pases a sus clases.

Por favor note que absolutamente NO hay salidas de ÚLTIMA HORA - no se podrá sacar de clases a ningún estudiante después de las 2:30 p.m. También, no dejaremos salir a ningún estudiante con llamadas telefónicas.

SAFETY

The William S. Hart Union High School District is committed to making student and staff safety our number one priority. To help with that mission, each campus has its own Text-A-Tip to confidentially encourage students, parents, and staff that if you "See Something, Say

Something." The text-a-tip line is monitored during regular school hours. If you need support outside of the school day, you may email the Sheriff's Department at [email protected] or call directly at (661)260-4000.

If there is an immediate threat and concern for personal safety, please dial 911.

Our new Student Care Line expands Text-a-Tip: Student Care Line. If you notice any suspicious activity, please text (661)213-9002 or send an email to [email protected].

Si hay una amenaza inmediata o preocupación por seguridad personal, llama al 911.

Si tienes alguna inquietud o ves una actividad sospechosa, por favor manda un mensaje de texto a este número (661)213-9002, o envía un correo electrónico a [email protected].

If you believe you or someone you know is in immediate danger, please call 911. Text-A-Tip has been used by students, staff and families to report something out of the ordinary. With the goal being “If you see something, say something". Text-A-Tip was there to report if someone was wanting to hurt themselves or others, or even if there was the possibility of someone committing a crime. The new Student Care Text Line will be broadened to include mental health and wellness concerns. If you are struggling or know someone who is struggling, the Student Care Text Line will make early intervention possible, allowing for small problems to be handled before they become big problems.

Cause for concern might be indicated by:

Trouble controlling emotions
Withdrawal from friends and usual activities
Feelings of rejection or solitude
Feeling constantly disrespected
Frequent loss of temper
Increased risk-taking behavior
Talk of suicide or loss of hope
Self-harm
Declining school performance
Students may text their concerns to (661) 213-9002. Students may also
