BE PROPER
The student will be respectful to the teacher, peers and any other person in the classroom.
Profanity is not allowed in the classroom and will not be tolerated.
Students will be warned for first offense and receive a classroom consequence, parent will be contacted for second offense, and administrative contact will be made if the behavior continues.
CLASSROOM DISCIPLINE PROCEDURES:
Class discipline will consist of a warning system in which three warnings constitute a consequence (profanity is considered a serious offense and will be dealt with as previously explained in the classroom rules). Parents will be contacted if the problem persists.
If the negative behavior does not cease, a parent/teacher/student meeting will be
required. If these steps do not resolve the negative behavior, the student will be referred to his/her counselor and/or administration. Poor or incorrect student choices will be dealt with in a timely, correct, fair, and firm manner. Positive consequences for proper behavior will also be assigned. Students are expected to use the target language in the classroom and points will be awarded for each complete day. Students will also be given participation points for positive participation. Students may also earn homework passes throughout the school year via class activities.
