The main purpose of a disciplinary measure is to give students feedback on their behavior and help them grow as responsible citizens. We expect all students to sign and abide by our School Behavior Contract. These documents remind the students of their responsibility for their learning and their behavior. In each seventh and eighth grade classroom, the promotion and graduation standards are posted for student reference. We want students to have the best possible climate for learning and we will be vigilant in working toward that goal.
Every school wants to be the best in leadership and instruction.
Specific goals must be set, then worked toward in order to achieve excellence. Some goals may be reached quickly, and others may require a good deal of time. As specific goals are reached, new ones are set, and through this goal-setting process, improvements are made. At Jackson Street School, we believe we have a quality program, but we are not satisfied with just that. Education is constantly changing in techniques, in materials available, and in the needs of our society.
