It shall be the responsibility of each student to keep their assigned lockers clean and undamaged.
To ensure students are properly maintaining their assigned locker, the principal of the building may periodically inspect the lockers. Student lockers may be searched in compliance with board policy regulating search and seizure.
Iowa law requires students or another individual to be present during the inspection of lockers.
