Class Expectations & WHAT System

Library Classes

Students are scheduled to visit the library during their Language Arts class once every two weeks. Appropriate  behavior is expected of all students, including showing respect for teachers, classmates, and library resources. 

 

The WHAT Discipline System

WHAT is the acronym for our discipline system. The WHAT system is meant to reinforce and teach what it is we expect from the students. WHAT covers student behavioral expectations in the classrooms, restrooms, hallways, cafeteria, buses, and flex areas such as during assemblies.

 

       W – Work to the Best of Your Ability

       H – Have What You Need to Succeed

       A – Act as a Responsible Student

       T – Treat People, Property, and Time with Respect

 

Action Steps for WHAT*:

The number of WHAT slips yield the following consequences:

     1 WHAT Slip:          Written Warning
