5008.1 Shasta Liberty BP Withholding Student Records

Board Policy 5008.1 outlines parent/guardian financial liability for willful damage to school property or unreturned borrowed items (up to legal statutory limits). If materials are lost, damaged, or withheld through fault or intent, the school reserves the right—after due process and written notification—to withhold the student’s grades, diploma, and transcripts. If a family cannot afford the replacement cost recommended by the vendor, the school offers a voluntary community service work program (valued at $10/hour or local minimum wage) to clear the debt and release records.
