Discipline Policy

• Good: All students begin the day on Good, as we assume each child will have a good day.
• Outstanding: Students move from good when they have had an exceptionally great day, or if students exhibit out of the ordinary behaviors.
• Reminder: Students move from Good to Reminder when they were gently reminded about classroom expectations, and struggle following them.
• Miss Recess: Students moved to Miss Recess were given many reminders and opportunities to improve their behavior, but continued to struggle with following classroom expectations.
• Call Home/Visit to the Office: In the extreme circumstance that a student is moved to this level, I will be calling to discuss the details of the situation.
