Code of Conduct

A blue and gray eagle with wings spread wide, soaring above a sunburst with the text 'Walter G. O'Connell Copiague High School A Great Place To Learn'.

It is extremely important that our students and families recognize and accept our building procedures and Code of Conduct. Being fully aware of and abiding by these reasonable rules will preserve an academic and social environment that is well organized, safe and friendly.

 

After reviewing the handbook, students and parent/guardians are required to acknowledge their receipt and understanding of the handbook using an electronic document sent through our

Parent Square Messaging System.

  • BOCES courses will count as three (3) of the necessary numerical grades. 
  • A grade of Incomplete (I) disqualifies a student until the numerical grade is recorded. 
  • A failure in any subject or a grade of Dropped Failure (DF) makes a student ineligible for the Honor Roll for that marking period.
