For long-term medications we must have a new medical form each school year prior to administering the medications. Doctors have the medical forms in their office. Please contact the school if you have any questions. Toward this end all students are expected to demonstrate acceptable behavior patterns. Students at Yates Mill Elementary are expected to conduct themselves in a manner, which allows learning to take place and protects the physical safety of everyone.
Teachers work closely with students to ensure that everyone is familiar with class and school rules.
Special attention is given to acts of politeness, courtesy, respect, responsibility and other appropriate behaviors. Learning to be a self-discipline, responsible citizen is an important goal for our students. We endorse the beliefs behind the Glasser Theory, which focuses on getting children to control themselves. Our job is to help them learn how to become managers of their own behavior. Sometimes it is necessary for us to make decisions for children when their choices are unacceptable or can cause bodily harm to others.
