Discipline Mission  Statement

 

Good discipline is necessary if learning is to take place.  Students are expected to demonstrate Christian conduct on a consistent basis.  They are to show respect and cooperative behavior toward adults and other students, and they are always expected to respect the rights of others.

The discipline process is aimed at changes, not just punishment.  Students who disrupt the educational process, break established school or classroom rules, and/or harass or violate the rights of others may be subject to detention, loss of privileges, put on a probationary status, suspension or expulsion depending on the severity of the offense.
