School Discipline Plan

Behaving appropriately is an essential aspect of learning.  Without a disciplined atmosphere, the teacher cannot teach effectively and the learner can not learn.  Using PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports), this system is designed to teach the desired behavior through positive interventions rather than using punishment as a single approach.  The interventions are designed to teach the student how to respond to difficult situations, as well as supporting appropriate student behaviors.  The behavior plan is administered and practiced throughout the school.  Our goal is to make universal rules that will be followed by everyone.  By doing this, students know exactly what to expect and how to act when in another teacher's classroom or in related arts.  Students will know the consequences at all times. 

We strongly believe that parental involvement and support are essential to the effectiveness of this school discipline plan and are committed to a school environment where the principal, teachers and parents are continuously and wholeheartedly working together for our children. We are attempting to provide a safe environment in which students can learn, feel valued and develop responsibility for their own behaviors and academic progress.
