Purpose of the Student Code of Conduct |
|
|
- Promotes behavior that projects a positive environment for learning for all students.
- Outlines behavior that is expected of all students.
- Defines specific examples of student behavior.
- Clearly defines consequences that may be imposed for all student behavior.
- Provides for administrators’ consistency in dealing with student discipline.
- Describes the responsibilities and rights of each member of the school community in bringing about and maintaining good discipline throughout the district.
- Communicates policies of the Board of Trustees pertaining to appropriate and acceptable student behavior.
The Student Code of Conduct is enforced from the time the student enters a school bus or steps on the school campus or attends any school-sponsored activities.
Teachers, principals and sponsors of extra-curricular organizations may impose campus or classroom rules in addition to those found in the Student Code of Conduct. These rules may be posted in classrooms or given to the student and may or may not also constitute violations of the Student Code of Conduct. Parents will not necessarily be informed of classroom infractions, but will be informed of any Code of Conduct violation.
