Haw. Code R. § 8-19-19 - Reporting class A and class B offenses occurring in school
(a) Any teacher, official, or other employee
of the department who is a witness to a class A or class B offense as defined
in this chapter, or who has reasonable cause to believe that a class A or class
B offense has been committed or will be committed, against a student, teacher,
official, or other employee of the department, or involving school property,
shall promptly report the incident to the principal or designee. Nothing in
this subsection shall be construed to prohibit or prevent a teacher, official,
or other employee of the department from reporting class C or class D offenses
to the principal or designee.
(b)
Upon receiving a class A or class B offense report, the principal or designee
shall conduct an investigation to determine whether the behavior requires a
direct call to the police or whether the behavior can be handled through school
disciplinary procedures. The principal or designee shall call the police
whenever there is perceived danger and the behavior cannot be handled by the
school staff.
(c) The principal or
designee shall record the incident information into the department's electronic
database system within five school days of the reported offense.
(d) The principal or designee shall notify
the reporting teacher, official, or other employee, of the disciplinary action,
if any, taken on the class offense(s) within five school days after the
incident is reported in accordance with subsection (c).
