QUESTION 3 ANSWER

CORRECT!

For the safety of the student you cannot tell another person where a student is at any time.

GENERAL RULE:

When an emergency situation arises, direct the caller to contact the Office of Dean of Students Office. The Dean of Students Office may be able to contact the student in class and relay information to them. The Dean of Students Office cannot take anyone to the student's class, but will work closely with families in emergency situations.
