STUDENT DISCIPLINE
Refer to Board Policy: 5600 Adopted 8/1/09

The Board of Education acknowledges that conduct is closely related to learning - an effective
instructional program requires an orderly school environment and the effectiveness of the educational
program is, in part, reflected in the behavior of students.

The Board believes that the best discipline is self-imposed and that students should learn to assume
responsibility for their own behavior and the consequences of their actions. The Board has zero tolerance
of violent, disruptive or inappropriate behavior by its students.
