​DIGNITY

Students and parents are expected to abide by all school rules and academic policies. Should students violate school policies and procedures, teachers and administrators will take steps to ensure students are able to get back on track. Teachers use a variety of methods to alert parents of concerns in their classroom including Class Dojo, e-mails, written or telephone notifications and detentions (Grades 7-8). 

​​Please be advised discipline is an aspect of moral guidance and not a form of punishment. The purpose of discipline is to provide a school climate conducive to learning and one that promotes character development. Discipline is maintained in a classroom or school when students work cooperatively with the administration, the teachers, and their classmates toward the attainment of the class and school objectives. However, it should be noted that the legitimate interests of the school extend beyond the school day and beyond the school hours.

​All official meetings regarding student’s behavior and academics will be conducted with parents and the legal guardian of children only.​

Parent Cooperation: It is expected that all parents will support the decision of the administration regarding discipline issues for their child knowing that the school has done it’s best to investigate the situation and render a fair and just outcome giving consideration to a student’s age and circumstances. Please be advised that administration will only discuss your child’s involvement and your child’s discipline with you. The involvement of other students and the discipline of other students will not be discussed.

​Any student receiving any “D/NI” or “F” in behavior at the end of the trimester will be placed on behavioral probation. Any student, who receives two trimester grades of “D/NI” or “F” in behavior, may be asked to withdraw from St. Genevieve School.
