Behavior Policy

In grades 3-6 we will be using a monthly communication calendar to monitor student behavior. This can be found in the front of the student's homework book. Examples of warning behaviors that would be recorded on this log include but are not limited to: talking and or shouting out, being disrespectful, and practicing inappropriate cafeteria or recess behavior.  If a student accumulates 3 warning behaviors in a given month, they will be issued a demerit.  Certain behaviors such as disrespect towards classmates or faculty, inappropriate language, and physical fighting warrant an automatic demerit and will be handled on a case by case basis.  We ask parents to initial the communication log each night.  Students who go an entire month with an empty log will earn a reward!  

Below is the system used for Discipline Notices for grades 4-8: 

Discipline Notice 1, 2 and 3- There will be a parent/teacher conference either in person or via the phone after Discipline Notice 3. The teacher initiates the conference. 
Discipline Notice 4, 5, and 6- There will be a parent/principal/teacher/student conference in school after the 6th Discipline Notice. The homeroom teacher will initiate the plans for the conference. 
Discipline Notice 7, 8, and 9- After a 9th Discipline Notice, the student becomes a candidate for suspension. The principal and pastor will review previous notices and inform all parties of the decision. If a suspension occurs, then the suspension process will proceed. 

Thank you for your continued support in our effort to teach responsibility and accountability to your children.
