Administrative matters are handled with quick, efficient routines that keep class disruptions to a minimum. Teachers let students know that there are high standards for behavior in the classroom. Rules, discipline procedures and consequences are planned in advance.
Standards are consistent with or identical to the building code of conduct.
Consistent, equitable discipline is applied for all students. Procedures are carried out quickly and are clearly linked to students' inappropriate behavior. Discipline procedures are routine and quick to administer. Follow-up and action for absenteeism and tardiness normally occurs within a day. There are few minority students at the school, and student turnover is between 20 and 30 percent each year.
