  7. Merit System

  8. Merit System • The administration expects ALL students at Manual Arts HS to be well disciplined and to maintain the highest standards of behavior at all times. • The merit system has been chosen as a guide for student discipline at Manual Arts. Demerits • Every student begins his/her school career with 100 merits. When a student makes a poor choice, merits may be taken away (see discipline policy matrix). • Each student is required to maintain a merit record of at least 90 to remain in good standing. • A student is required to earn merits immediately upon falling below 90. Ineligibility List • When a student’s merit balance goes below 90, he/she is put in a weekly ineligibility list. Students appearing on the ineligibility list may not participate in school activities or athletics in any way until the merits are earned. Earning Merits • Attending one hour of after school or Saturday detention for each merit needed—1 hour detention makes up for (1) demerit. • Completing an assignment given by the Assistant Principal—1 assignment makes up for (1) demerit. • Completing school service and turning in a contract for demerit removal to the Assistant Principal of Discipline’s office. Failure to serve detention may result in suspension from school (Ed Code 48900)
