Student/Parent Handbook

TO OUR STUDENTS

You need a safe, respectful, and orderly environment to learn. In order to maintain that in our classrooms, teachers will personally deal with all violations of classroom rules by students. Your teachers expect that you will:

  1. Treat others with respect.
  2. Your actions, dress, possessions, and so on, will not cause a problem for anyone else.
  3. If your actions, dress, possessions, and so on, cause a problem, you will be asked to solve that problem.
  4. If you cannot solve the problem, or choose not to, staff members will do something. What s/he decides to do will depend upon the situation and the person(s) involved. Staff members will use their best judgment based upon the information they have at the time.
  5. If the student and/or parents/guardians feel that the consequences are unfair, they can request a meeting with the principal.

The meeting does not need to be formal. It is simply a time for concerned individuals to meet together and discuss the situation in question. In the event that the discussion provides information that sheds different light on the situation, or shows the consequences to be unfair, the consequences may be changed or eliminated to better fit the situation.

Each student and each situation will be handled as unique, with one exception. The Board of Trustees has established a set of district wide rules dealing with student safety, such as violence, drugs / alcohol / tobacco, bullying, etc. These rules carry prescribed penalties that apply to all students consistently.
