Discipline Policy and Procedures
Discipline is not an end in itself, but rather a promoter of self-control, good study habits and the facilitation of the learning process. It is the School’s responsibility to provide quality education for the students and to encourage them to complete the goals and objectives outlined for them. It is imperative, therefore, that there exists in the School an appropriate atmosphere so that these goals and objectives can be realized.
Disruptive behavior introduces confusion and chaos to the classroom, impedes academic progress, and deprives the students of their right to learn. It is to the student’s benefit, therefore, for the School to identify disciplinary problems quickly and to address student misconduct in a fair, but firm, manner. To this end, a code of conduct has been established and disciplinary measures outlined to deal with violations of that code.
