School Rules

GENERAL SCHOOL RULES

 

Students are required to carry a pass when leaving the classroom. Passes are to be properly filled out by the teacher. This includes going to the guidance counselor’s office.
Students are not permitted to bring electronic games, toys, Walkman, sports equipment, radios, headphones, beepers, pagers, or cellular phones. These will be confiscated and will only be returned to the parent.
Excellent attendance, punctuality, effort, and respect are required for success.
School uniforms are required for all students, in accordance with resolutions adopted by our Parent Teacher Association and the School Leadership Team.
The nurse’s office is for students who are too ill to attend class. A pass from the classroom teacher must be obtained before going to the nurse’s office.
If a student is too ill to remain in school, a parent/guardian will be expected to pick him/her up. The student must be officially signed out at the Main Office. All school personnel have been trained to obtain strict proof of identification before releasing the child.

STUDENT CODE OF BEHAVIOR

 

The school is a place of learning; therefore, there must be an atmosphere based on mutual respect. All students should demonstrate a desire to get the best education possible. We expect students to adhere to the following behavior code:

· Be courteous

· Respect the property, rights and feelings of others.

· Respect school property

· Avoid confrontations, fighting, and profanity

· Vandalism, and harassment are not acceptable.

The Chancellor’s Discipline Code will be distributed and discussed in class. Copies will be sent home. It is of highest importance for families to read, review, and discuss them with their child/children .

 

CLASSROOM BEHAVIOR

Students are expected to be in class on time, and to demonstrate courteous behavior so that each individual’s rights are respected and everyone can learn in an orderly environment. Students are expected to be prepared with all necessary materials for learning, and homework assignments daily. Teachers will discuss and review classroom rules at the beginning of the school year, and will continue to implement them throughout the year.

 

CAFETERIA BEHAVIOR

 

The same level of respectful behavior shown in the classroom is expected in the cafeteria. Students are expected to follow directions the first time they are given.

For example:

Sit at assigned seats.
Walk to and from the cafeteria table (to avoid accidents.)
Remain in the cafeteria during lunch.
Only leave the cafeteria with a signed pass.
Keep your area clean, no throwing of food or trash.
If you need to use the bathroom, you must ask permission from the person in charge.
In case of an emergency, a student may leave the cafeteria with a signed pass from the person in charge.
