The Storm King School recommends that student passports and I-20s be kept in the Administrative Offices for safe-keeping. Students should not keep large sums of cash on themselves or in their rooms without a proper safe. Hotel-style safes are available for rental in the School Store. Cash, jewelry, electronics and other valuables should be stored in a safe or lock box. The Office of Student Life reserves the right to ask a student to unlock any safe or other locked box, bag, or container.

During the academic day, all dormitories are locked until the conclusion of the academic day. Students are not permitted in the dormitories while they are locked. If found inside, students will meet with a member of the Office of Student Life and will be given disciplinary consequences.

Storm King School students are residents of the Village of Cornwall-onHudson and the Town of Cornwall. They must respect private and public property, and give respect to all residents and visitors.

All students should be familiar with the boundaries of the School. The northern boundary is the boys’ dormitories Dempsey and McConnell. The eastern boundary is Mountain Road and Spy Rock House.

The day student population at The Storm King School represents a significant proportion of our student body. Day students are subject to the same rules and policies as boarding students. Day students are encouraged to enjoy all

meals during the academic week, and to attend all contests, activities, and productions that occur on campus.

Students arriving on campus after the conclusion of the advisory check-in (after 8:10 am) must stop by the Administration Building and report to a member of the Office of Student Life or Assistant to the Head of School to receive a late pass. Absent day students must have their parents call the Office of Student Life at extension 238 prior to the start of school to report the absence. In addition, day students, when leaving campus early for the day for any reason, are required to check out in the Administration Building with a member of the Office of Student Life or the Assistant to the Head of School. Students requiring bus transportation to and from school must communicate regularly with their respective public school districts and/or bus garages to assure consistent service.

Day students wishing to drive to and from campus must register their vehicle with the Office of Student Life and sign a driving contract at the beginning of the school year. Required parking stickers will then be distributed, which must be displayed on the vehicle. All day students are required to park in areas designated by the administration. Once their academic day has begun, day students are not allowed to leave campus without permission until their final commitment is complete. Students who abuse these rules will lose their driving privilege, and/or face disciplinary consequences for the infraction. Lastly, students are not permitted to exit the campus on foot without express and agreed upon permission from parents and the Office of Student Life.

Day students are not permitted to enter residential student housing on campus without express permission from a member of the faculty or administration. Day students are permitted to spend a night on campus, but this must be coordinated through the Office of Student Life. When the student is staying on campus as a result of an athletic or artistic commitment, or as a result of a school wide event, there is no charge to the student. The School does charge day students staying on campus for social reasons, or for extended stays when parents or guardians are out of town.
