Follow the bus ridership guidelines outlined in your handbook.

Leave nuisance items at home (toys, pagers, electronic items).

Physical and verbal harassment or assault will not be tolerated.

Never possess, store, transmit or use a weapon or look-alike weapon at school as this conduct is grounds for expulsion.

Decisions to violate the Code of Conduct will result in consequences including but not limited to a conference, detention, suspension, exclusion and expulsion.

Report any misbehavior you witness or experience. Everyone has a right to feel safe and respected.

1. Generally, begin by reporting the misbehavior to your class teacher. In the lunchroom, tell one of the supervisors.

2. If personal safety is an issue, go to the nearest adult. Tell them you need help and are not feeling safe.

3. On-going problems should be reported to a counselor or administrator. Be aware of the date, time, and location of the incident. This information will help in the investigation.

Reported incidents are investigated. Individual students cannot be told if/what consequences are given to another student, but may be notified when an investigation is completed.
