School District
Behavior & Discipline
Staff at each building will spend instructional time to teach students the expected behaviors in various areas of the building. Lessons may include whole-group instruction, modeling of appropriate behaviors, small group reteaching, redirection, and corrective teaching as needed. Expected behaviors for each building are based on the matrix below but may be adjusted to accommodate specific building needs; parents may request a copy of the building behavior matrix at any time.
The grounds for disciplinary action apply whenever the student’s conduct is reasonably related to school or school activities, including, but not limited to:
● On, or within sight of, school grounds before, during, or after school hours or at any time;
● Off school grounds at a school-sponsored activity or event, or any activity or event that bears a reasonable relationship to school;
● Traveling to or from school or a school activity, function, or event; or
● Anywhere, if the conduct interferes with, disrupts, or adversely affects the school environment, school operations, or an educational function, including, but not limited to, conduct that may reasonably be considered to: (a) be a threat or an attempted intimidation of a staff member; or (b) endanger the health or safety of students, staff, or school property.
This includes when using District email, phones, or other methods of communication; using or accessing a District-issued device or District network, website, or other platform; and when participating in remote or e-learning. See Board Policies 7:180 and 7:190.
