Discipline / Respect • To disciple • Teacher will try to handle most minor infractions within the classroom setting • All attempts will be made to discipline without removing the student from the instructional environment • Major infractions or continued minor ones will result in whatever is necessary to keep all students from having their learning disrupted • We have a progressive discipline plan • Our first goal is a productive learning environment for all; our second goal is to help YOU to build the proper behaviors in your children

  11. Discipline / Respect • Our basic discipline plan has 4 levels • Student behaviors are logged and accumulated in teacherease (parents can view these logs) • A child accumulating 3 or more infractions in a week will lose Friday “Hang” time which is a privilege; this is “LISS”– they will also be marked as a level 1 on progression • A reoccurrence of LISS or something more major will result in a level 2 • A third reoccurrence of LISS or something more major will result in level 3 and require a conference with the parent • Level 4 will result in recommendation for suspension of after school detention

Discipline / Respect • Parents may get more immediate calls depending on the nature of the issue • Some issues will call for immediate suspension • Students are expected to respect all adults on campus • We will try to be patient with children, but your children may not run the campus • We also ask that if you come with issue, please feel free, but do so respectfully • HANG TIME supports positive environment of cooperation • There will also be other positive behavior support tools put in place
