  3. What is Horse Play? James Martin students are all about making Wise Choices. As a result, our students refrain from engaging in HORSE PLAY! • Horse Play is rough play that can include playing, fighting, hitting, slapping, kicking, wrestling, jumping on a friend’s back, etc. While Horse Play often starts off to be fun, it often escalates to one or both students becoming angry. Fights often begin with Horse Play. • Horse Play disrupts the flow of transitions and disrupts learning.

  4. Insubordination • Students ARE expected to comply with the direction/instruction of any staff member immediately. To refuse to follow instructions of a staff member is Insubordination. • Walking away and/or speaking to a staff member in an inappropriate manner (tone and/or language) is considered insubordination and will not be tolerated at JMMS. Remember Respect Builds Character!

  5. Disruptive Behavior Many behaviors can disrupt learning. Students at James Martin are expected to make Wise Choices and engage in behaviors that bring about learning. Our students are expected to refrain from engaging in disruptive behaviors, such as: • Calling out • Moving from assigned seat or area without permission • Throwing objects (paper, candy, pencils, etc.) • Harassment, name calling or teasing • Making rude or inappropriate noises • Interrupting the speaker

  6. Fighting and Aggressive Behavior Students are expected to refrain from engaging in or instigating fighting or aggressive behaviors. These behaviors result in an automatic out of school suspension.

ADDITIONAL EXPECTATIONS • Students are to refrain from using offensive language toward any staff member. • Cell phones, IPods, gaming devices, computer etc. MUST be OUT OF SIGHT during school hours. • If a member of the staff asks you to turn over an electronic device, you are expected to give the device to that staff member immediately.
