Honor Code Violation Determination

Honor Code Violation Determination

Once all the evidence has been presented, the council may discuss any necessary issues in a closed deliberation. Using secret ballots, the council will vote on whether a violation of the Honor Code has occurred. A majority vote is required for a positive determination that an Honor Code violation has occurred.

If it is determined that no Honor Code violation occurred, then any written statements or audiocassettes will be destroyed.

If it is determined that a student has violated the Honor Code, all written statements and audiocassettes made during the administrative hearing will remain property of the Honor Code Council until his or her graduation at which time the documents will be destroyed. Should a student depart Peninsul a Catholic for other reasons, the disciplinary record sent to their next high school will include their Honor Code violation and the subsequent penalty/penalties.
