ID Policy
Students will wear a school issued ID on a lanyard around the neck or appropriately clipped to their clothing above the waist at all times during the school day.
Students will receive their school issued ID and lanyard during the first week of school in their advisory class.
Students will get two free IDs each year, or one each semester. If a student loses an ID they will have to pay a $5 administrative fee to get a new ID.
Students can get Temporary IDs from their Grade Level Attendance Secretary in Student Services before 8:20 only. ID checks will be done EVERY period and students will be given a temporary ID from their teacher if they do not have their school ID.
After 3 temporary IDs are issued, students will be charged a $5 administrative fee and will be issued a new ID. If they cannot pay the fee at that time, they will get the ID, but will be placed on the Campus Unclear List in order to pay that fee.
Students must have an official School ID to participate/attend in the following campus activities:
Fine Arts or Sporting Events
Dances or other after school functions
Off-campus lunch — Seniors Only
Cell Phone Policy
Creekview High School is part of the “One to One” initiative with technology. All students are issued a Chromebook in our district. Because of that, cell phones should be put away, out of sight, during class.

- During passing periods throughout the day
- When directed by teachers for instructional purposes
- During their lunch time
- After 3:35 PM when the school day is over.
Consequences for failure to follow the Cell Phone policy:
- The first offense, the student will surrender the phone to the teacher. The student’s phones will be taken to Student Services and can be retrieved at the end of the day without charge
- Additional offenses for failure to follow the cell phone policy will result in the student having to pay a $15 fee to get their phone.
- Students who refuse to turn over their cell phones will face further disciplinary consequences from their grade level principal
Grooming Policy/Dress Code
View the CFBISD 2019-2020 Dress Code
Principal is the Final Authority
The Board delegates to the principal the authority to make final determinations as to whether clothing or grooming is or is not within this policy. The ruling of the building principal regarding compliance or non-compliance with the Dress & Grooming Policy and corresponding consequences assigned for violation of this policy is final, and may not be appealed to the Superintendent, his/her designee, or the Board.
Parent and Student Responsibility
The parent and student shall be responsible for ensuring that the student is in compliance with all aspects of this policy during the time the student is on school premises during regular school hours or at any after school function. Items worn in violation of this policy may be taken up by a school official and returned according to campus policy.
Failure by the student to correct dress or grooming violations at first request is considered insubordination and may result in disciplinary action.
Policy Enforcement
It is the responsibility of all professional personnel to administer dress and grooming guidelines. Judgment, with consistent, fair and equitable enforcement of standards, while protecting the dignity of individual students, shall be practiced.
Students shall not wear any clothing that, in the principal’s judgment, is startling, unusual, disruptive, immodest, and/or brings undue attention to the student. Students shall not wear any item that is lewd, offensive, vulgar, obscene, or depicts nudity, violence, drugs or alcoholic beverages.
Clothes that raise questions as to whether the clothing item is within the policy may be prohibited.
Students’ dress and grooming should be modest, decent, not distract other students and/or staff and should contribute to a safe, positive learning environment.
Exclusions
This policy does not prohibit principals from allowing extracurricular group uniforms to be worn on days of special celebrations which involve unusual dress such as “crazy hat day or” 50’s day.
