Any staff member found possessing such items on Corporation premises, a school vehicle, or on property being used by the Corporation for school purposes will be reported to the local law enforcement agency.

The Superintendent shall prepare administrative guidelines to ensure immediate reporting to the appropriate law enforcement agency.
Such items may be brought onto Corporation property for educational purposes under controlled circumstances when authorized by the Superintendent.
