Flathead High School Bulletin
March 16, 2010
Each day FHS students head out the door and go to school equipped with expensive backpacks, clothing, books and other items. The last thing students think will happen is that someone will steal or intentionally damage those belongings. Once out the door, students need to make a conscious effort to protect their belongings. Students also need to be aware of the dangers of sharing lockers or giving out the locker combination to others. Most often the property targeted at school are books, cell phones, jewelry, backpacks, expensive electronic equipment and cash. Never leave valuables unattended, whether in an unlocked locker, in the corner of a classroom, or at the lunch table.
Five ways to protect personal property at school:
- Leave valuables at home.
- Have a strong lock and don't share or give out the combination.
- Don't leave property unattended or entrusted to others.
- Avoid flaunting valuable property.
- Be aware of belongings and surroundings.
Reporting Problems
Despite your best efforts to avoid theft, it can still happen. If you are a victim of theft at school, there are appropriate steps to take. Any theft or intentional property damage should be reported immediately to an adult in charge. School administration should be informed immediately so they can investigate.

You need to lock you lockers in the Boys and Girls Locker rooms. With the recent thefts happening, DO NOT leave them unlocked. If you leave them unlocked, you are a making yourself a willing victim. If you bring personal items to school, you need to lock them in your locker with a lock. If you don’t have a lock, get one or don’t leave your items in the locker rooms. Also, BE ADVISED that if YOU ARE COMITTING these thefts and you are caught, you will be turned over to Law Enforcement.
