Assess the citizenship of each student at the end of each grading period by giving a citizenship grade and at least one related comment. Cooperate with the school in helping their students develop and maintain behavioral habits that will foster school success. Utilize appropriate interventions in a effort to help students improve their behavior. Eligibility may be reinstated as soon as Unsatisfactory citizenship grades have been made up. The citizenship grade and the academic grade are separate and one grade will not be used to affect the other.
Academic grades reflect the mastery of subject matter content.
Citizenship grades reflect behavior. Students who are placed on probation will remain on probation for the balance of the current school year. However, non-senior students who are placed on probation at the beginning of or during the last grading period of the year, will remain on probation until the end of the first grading period of the next school year. Further infractions will result in additional consequences which may include referral to Youth Court or Juvenile Court, mandated attendance at a behavior modification class, suspension, referral to an alternate placement, referral to the Board of Education for release from school attendance. If the 15th calendar day falls on a day other than a business day of the District, the appeal deadline is extended to the next business day.
