Oak Ridge High School Daily Bulletin

STUDENT INFO

Students, this is very a very important announcement! A breach in security occurred last week when a student propped open the Wildcat Arena doors with a rock. This allowed two individuals who were not ORHS students to enter the building. Upon their entrance, they proceeded to roam around our facility and make their way to the locker room area where one of our facilities was ransacked and multiple individuals had their personal belongings stolen. PLEASE BE ADVISED, ANYONE propping a door with a rock, the rug, or any object which compromises the security of our building will receive an out of school suspension. In addition, students are not bringing their ID badge to school each day. This is also a hindrance to our security. Lunch detentions will be assigned to individuals who do not have their badge on their person. Please remember your badge gains you access to the building only during certain times of the day: 6:30 am – 7:50 am; 3:06 pm – 3:30 pm (except for Wednesday which is 1:40 pm – 2:10 pm). Random badge checks will begin on Tuesday! (2/28-3/10) – M. McDonald
