At Lake Elkhorn, we work hard to ensure that students are learning in a positive environment conducive to success. With that, we follow the Howard County Public School System countywide discipline code.  Click here for a copy of the HCPSS Student Code of Conduct. 

The HCPSS  Student and Parent Handbook will not be printed, but will be available online shortly. We will also continue to implement our “PRIDE” positive behavior plan.

Please take some time to review the Howard County Public School System Student Secondary Student & Parent Handbook. Further, please review the HCPSS Code of Conduct and the summaries and highlights of applicable policies and procedures listed below with your child. Thank you for your ongoing support!
