School Rules & Consequences
The philosophy of the elementary school is to create an atmosphere in which the idea of being courteous prevails. Our goal is to establish a non-adversarial relationship with and among our students. We believe if students are simply courteous to each other and behave in a safe manner; no other rules need be applied.
Be Courteous: It is expected that all students will act in a courteous manner throughout the school day regardless of where they are or what they are doing. Whether they are in the hallways, classrooms, on the playground or the bus, we believe that the rules of courtesy should be exhibited and may simply be defined as respect for consideration of others.
To Be Courteous Means:
Using good manners when appropriate
Holding the doors for others
Being respectful to all students and all adults in the building
Being respectful of the school building and all school property
Not wearing hats
Not cutting in line
Not teasing, name-calling or making fun of others
Be Safe: It is expected that all students will behave in a safe manner throughout the school day regardless of where they are or what they are doing. If students' efforts are directed to always behaving in a "safe and courteous manner", our school will continue to be a warm and caring educational environment. We believe all children should exhibit self-control and self-respect.
To Be Safe Means:
Not running
Not pushing
Following the rules on the bus
Consequences:
1st Offense – Verbal warning and a call home to parents
2nd Offense – Written warning, phone call to parents, possible loss of privileges, i.e. Recess
3rd Offense – Written reprimand, possible in-school suspension or out of school suspension.
