Each student has the right to a safe, secure and productive learning environment. We strongly believe in a balanced discipline plan, which stresses a positive approach to student management. We keep in close contact with parents who support our mission. We are fortunate to have a Child Success Team and an intern counselor who serve students with special needs. We have an extensive reward system-acknowledging students who obey school rules.
Teachers constantly praise and reward proper student behavior.
Our Conflict Managers Program has continued to be a success. Selected fifth and sixth grade students received intensive training, learning how to help other students solve conflicts that may occur on the yard or in the classroom. Students have learned to look to their peers for support and counseling, solving problems without the assistance of adults. Teacher and Staff Training Staff Development is the key to successful programs, which in turn is the key to positive curriculum. Walter White School has profited from the Staff Development Days, which are part of the staff's work year.
