Neighborhood Resource Officer Program

The City of Sunnyvale's Public Safety Department and the Sunnyvale School District have worked to establish the Neighborhood Resource Officer Program. Public Safety Officers are assigned to each school in the district.

Discipline

District discipline policy is provided to each parent within our Parent Handbook, distributed annually when the children start school. Students discover the social responsibility required to work productively within the school setting. Along with academic emphasis, it is also important for students to learn self-discipline.

Zero Tolerance

The Sunnyvale School District is committed to safe school campuses and to the development of strategies that maintain the quality of the educational environment. The Board of Education has adopted a Resolution of Zero Tolerance for violence and weapons on school campuses or at school activities off campus. Board policy and administrative regulations support Zero Tolerance for weapons in our district. This means that students engaged in such behavior, including weapon possession, will be recommended for expulsion from all district schools and programs under the regulations of the California Education Code and Board Policy. Any student who possesses a weapon on campus will be suspended immediately and recommended for expulsion.

Sunnyvale School District is a Zero Tolerance district. Weapons of any kind, brought onto the school campuses in the District, will result in immediate action by the school and the Board of Education.

Preschool Programs

Sunnyvale School District operates a State Preschool Program at the Columbia Preschool Center and Cherry Chase Preschool Center. Children are eligible for the program based on criteria established by the State Department of Child Development. For further information call (408) 522-8213.
