The Student Handbook can be an important aid to students and parents. Should questions arise about school policies or rules, students should consult the Student Handbook or Program of Studies book. This handbook is in accordance with the policies of the Lancaster Board of Education and past practice in the Lancaster City Schools. If differences occur, the official policy of the Board and the Ohio School Code will prevail.
