Appropriate student behavior is fundamental to the educational process. Teachers maintain a system of classroom management and embody the schoolwide commitment of S.O.A.R.
The Code of Student Conduct outlines district guidelines of students' rights and responsibilities. It also explains various levels of misconduct and outlines possible options for appropriate disciplinary response. A copy of this book is provided for each family.
Depending on the severity of a given offense, issues may be handled with a minor infraction or possibly a referral. Persistent violations of rules will be referred to an administrator. School Discipline Referrals are written as needed.
The school reserves the right to confiscate any item deemed to be disruptive to the educational process. Improper use of personal items such as hairspray, cologne, breath spray, etc., will be confiscated. Unauthorized items, such as iPods, electronic devices, two-way radios, cameras, laser lights, stuffed animals, trading cards, etc., are not allowed in school. Possession or sale of any such items will result in a consequence. Items will be confiscated and returned to a parent or guardian. The school will not be responsible for items not retrieved after five regular school days.
Minor infractions are warnings given by the teacher as a reminder to students to stop disruptive behavior. The minor infraction gives students an opportunity to correct their behavior. Multiple minor infractions result in an office referral. Students with numerous discipline issues may be prohibited from attending special school functions, field trips or participating in extracurricular activities.

Students will be rewarded throughout the school year with “Phoenix Funds” for demonstrating our school’s expectations in and out of the classroom. Students will be able to use this “money” to purchase prizes from the PBIS store, tickets to PBIS events, entry to PBIS sponsored movie nights and other PBIS sponsored activities. Phoenix Funds must have the students' name on them, as well as a teacher’s name. Students may not share or give anyone else their Phoenix Funds
