Typically involves the willful and public refusal to follow adult direction. No theft of personal or school property. No tobacco products, drugs, drug paraphernalia, alcohol, fire arms, explosives, weapons, or general threats to the school community. No extortion of other students, willful destruction of school property, verbal abuse of staff, or engaging the fire alarms. Each teacher has classroom rules that correlate with school wide rules.
All teachers have a plan for managing classroom disruptions that includes a warning.
After one warning, teachers are asked to send their students to Chill Out. When students are sent to chill out, they are to report to the main office. It is an appropriate alternative to after-school detention when serving a student population over a wide geographic area without the benefit of late buses. While in Chill Out, students are required to quietly complete any work that would be missed in class. Chill Out generally lasts for the remainder of a school day from the time of the infraction.
