Consequences

 


1. Student will log his/her name and the inappropriate behavior in the behavior log. Each teacher maintains a separate behavior log for his/her class.
2.  Lunch d-hall is assigned after the student logs his/her name into the behavior log 2 times within a 2-week time frame (this is per teacher). Students serving lunch d-hall will also miss recess for the day.
 

3.  Parents will be contacted as of the 3rd behavior infraction within a 2-week time frame in addition to a lunch d-hall.

4. If a student logs 4 or more inappropriate behaviors within a 2-week time frame, he/she will also receive a red planner signature in addition to the lunch d-hall and parent contact.

Students receiving 9 red planner signatures within a 9-week time frame will receive an office referral.
5. Students who receive 4 or more lunch detentions within a 9-week time frame will not be eligible to attend the “Star Club.” (See below for more details on this reward).
6.  After each 2-week period, the teacher will begin a new behavior log for his/her class; however, the logs will be kept by the teacher for reference (if necessary).

 

NOTE: If the misbehavior is overly disruptive, the student could receive a red planner signature or be sent directly to our administrators for further discipline.

 


Lunch Detention Rules:
1. Students must report on time to the designated d-hall room, which will rotate between the POD C teachers.  
2.  Students must complete the "Lunch D-Hall” form.
3.  No talking during detention.
4.  Must remain seated.
5.  If lunch detention is skipped, it will be doubled and parents will be notified.

 

 

Rewards

 

At the end of each 9-week period, students will be invited to the “Star Club.”

 

The “Star Club” is held on the Friday before the last week of each 9-week period. This is our way of showing appreciation for those students who maintained a high level of academic and behavioral excellence during the 9-week grading period. Together, we will determine the activities that will take place on this special reward day. 






Admittance to the “Star Club” will be dependent on the following:
1. Zero missing assignments during the 9-week period from Math, Language Arts, Science, and Social Studies. Any missing assignments will be completed during the Star Club.
2.  Serving less than four lunch detentions during a 9-week period.

3.  Zero office referrals during a 9-week period.
