Locker Use Announcement!

AHS STUDENTS

In keeping with the recommendation by the Oklahoma School Security Institute, all students will be issued a locker during the 2024-25 school year. Backpacks in the classrooms pose trip hazards as well as the opportunity to bring unwanted or potentially unsafe items to class.

Backpacks are to be kept in lockers and not carried with students to class. Students will be allowed to get items necessary for learning from their lockers between classes ensuring they have everything needed prior to the start of class. Students will not be allowed to go to the locker during classes without permission. Students will be allowed to use personal locks that may be brought from home to secure assigned lockers. A second key or combination must be made available in the School office prior to securing a school locker.

Lockers/desks will be assigned at the beginning of school. Students will be expected to use the lockers/desks assigned to them and to keep them neat and clean at all times. DO NOT STORE food, drink or gym clothes in hall lockers.

The uses of tape and/or stickers are not allowed on lockers/desks. At AHS and AMS, personal locks may be brought from home to secure assigned lockers. A second key or combination must be made available in the school office prior to securing a school locker. Students leave articles of value in lockers/desks at their own risk. Students are responsible for anything found in or stolen from their lockers/desks.

Lockers and desks are the property of the school and are assigned to the students for use. Students hold no expectation of privacy in their lockers/desks or any other school property. School officials have the authority to search all school property (including lockers) at any time without notice and to seize any property by law or school policy.
