STUDENT COUNCIL ORGANIZATION
An active group that promotes the general welfare of the school, represents the interests of the
student body, directs and promotes approved student activities, promotes good staff-student
relations, instills an understanding and respect for the workings of democratic government, and
promotes the development of leaders in the school. Positions are available on the Executive and
General Councils.
PREFECT ORGANIZATION
The purpose of the Prefect Organization is to provide a core of mature and responsible students to
whom students may turn to for consultation and who the staff may turn to for service. The purpose is
also to provide an opportunity for leadership and training in responsibility. The secondary role is to
build school spirit. The organization accomplishes this by organizing a variety of school-based activities
throughout the year, and assisting with school functions.
ATHLETIC COUNCIL ORGANIZATION
An active group that promotes the general welfare of the school, represents the interests of the
student body with respect to approved athletic activities, promotes good staff-student relations, and
promotes the development of leaders in the school. Positions are available on the Executive and General
Councils.
16
ASSESSMENT & EVALUATION POLICY
The primary purpose of assessment and evaluation is to improve student learning and achievement.
The assessment of student progress, the evaluation of student achievement, and the percentage
grade on the report card are based on:
Ministry of Education curriculum expectations
The Provincial Achievement Chart
The Board`s Growing Success document
Curriculum expectations and the achievement chart are found in the Ministry guidelines for each
subject (www.edu.gov.on.ca) and are consistent throughout the province.
Within the first week of the course each teacher will provide a clear written statement explaining
how students will be evaluated.
Definitions: Assessment occurs throughout each course as teachers collect and analyze evidence of student
progress.
The primary purpose of assessment is to improve student learning. Assessment for the purpose of
improving student learning occurs when teachers provide students with descriptive feedback and
coaching for improvement. Teachers engage in “assessment as learning” by helping all students
develop their capacity to be independent, autonomous learners who are able to set individual goals,
monitor their own progress, determine next steps, and reflect on their thinking and learning.
Evaluation (assessment of learning) determines a grade. Teachers measure and judge a student’s
demonstration of knowledge and skills as required by the curriculum expectations for the course.
Students are responsible for keeping all assignments and evaluations for the duration of the course.
Evaluation of the achievement of the overall curriculum expectations is based on the achievement chart
for the subject, and marks are weighted according to the achievement chart categories
(Knowledge/Understanding, Thinking, Communication, and Application) for each subject, with the
exception of Communications courses which are weighted by Strands. Strands are based on the
different Language skills.
Evaluation in each course is based on Ministry of Education policies and is as follows:
70% of Final Mark (Term Evaluation)
Based on tests, assignments etc. produced throughout the course. In determining the 70% of the final
mark the teacher may give consideration to the most recent and consistent achievement.
30% of Final Mark (Final or Summative Evaluation)
Based on a final evaluation in the form of an examination, performance, essay or other method of
summative evaluation suitable to the course content. The final evaluation is administered near the end of
the course and reflects achievement of curriculum expectations.
17
ASSESSMENT & EVALUATION POLICY cont’d
A Report Card will be issued at both the midterm and at the end of the course. The Report Card is a
record of a student’s achievement of the curriculum expectations in the form of a percentage grade or
a letter grade; when insufficient evidence is available to determine a grade for students who recently
enrolled or have experienced protracted illness, the code “I” may be used in the case of grades 9 or 10
courses.
The midterm grade of the course is a report on student progress, and reflects student achievement at
that particular point in the course. It is a percentage grade that is based on term evaluations that have
been conducted up to that particular point in the course. The final grade indicates the student’s
performance in the course, and whether a credit has been earned.
The following LEARNING SKILLS are necessary for effective comprehension of the curriculum:
● Responsibility ● Creativity
● Organization ● Effective oral and written communication
● Independent Work ● Accessing & analyzing information
● Collaboration ● Critical thinking
● Initiative ● Problem solving
● Self-Regulation
They are assessed using a 4-point scale: Excellent (E), Good (G), Satisfactory (S), and
Unsatisfactory (U). These learning skills are reported separately and are not included in the
determination of the percentage grade.
G E N E R A L P O L I C I E S
ATTENDANCE REQUIREMENTS
The school year and course calendar are based on 110 hours of instruction in each course, as
required by the Ministry of Education. The complete set of curriculum expectations is delivered
over the full course. These curriculum expectations may not have been fully assessed and evaluated
if there are attendance gaps.
Consequently, if the student has not completed the full set of course expectations, granting a credit
may not be possible. The decision to remove a student from a course due to incomplete coverage
expectations caused by insufficient attendance will be made by the school administration, in
consultation with the course teacher and the School Support Team. Unless an acceptable reason for
failure to attend regularly (e.g., medical reasons) has been properly documented and provided to the
school administration in a timely manner, credit for the course will not be granted.
18
ASSESSMENT & EVALUATION POLICY cont’d
LATE ASSIGNMENTS
Tests, essays, projects, or other evaluations will not be accepted once they are marked and
returned to the class. Marks may be deducted up to and including the full value of the assignment
after a variety of strategies and methods for dealing with late and missed assignments, such as
counselling, assisting student with time management skills, informing parents etc… have been tried.
Late assignments may be reviewed for student learning and improvement, but marks will not be
awarded. This policy applies unless specific accommodations for extra time are indicated on a
student’s Individual Education Plan (IEP).
MISSED TESTS AND ASSIGNMENTS
A mark of zero will be assigned. If circumstances warrant an alternate assessment, opportunity may
be provided for the student to be evaluated. Circumstances include but are not limited to illness
verified by a physician.
MISSED EXAMINATIONS, IN-CLASS EXAMINATIONS and CULMINATING ACTIVITIES
Examinations are indicated on the Calendar of Events. Culminating activities and in-class exams are
held towards the end of the course. Students must be present on the specified dates and times. A
student absent due to illness must present a doctor’s certificate to the office that clearly states
that the student was too ill to write the exam. A student absent for any other reason will receive a
mark of zero. If circumstances warrant and are demonstrated to the office, the final mark may be
adjusted. Students arriving late will not be given extra time.
If a student is leaving early on vacation, a mark of Zero will be given.
GROUP WORK
Students who are assigned a group task will not receive a ‘group mark’ for the product. Students
will receive an individual mark for their different contributions of the knowledge and skills
represented in the product, and which are aligned with the curriculum expectations of the course. Individual effort in creating the product and contributions to the group will be reflected only on the
Learning Skills side of the Report Card, unless the ability to work in a group is part of the subject
curriculum expectations.
SPECIAL EDUCATION AND ESL
Accommodations will be made to ensure that identified Special Education and ESL students are
assessed and evaluated in an equitable manner, as per the Ministry of Education policy document:
Program Planning and Assessment 2000, (pages 8, 9). Accommodations include but are not limited to
scribing, oral assessments, extra time on tests/examinations, and use of specialized equipment.
Teachers may consult with the Special Education or the ESL department for further strategies and
support.

ACADEMIC INTEGRITY: PLAGIARISM / CHEATING
The grades that cybridge @ George Harvey C.I. students attain must be reflective of their own
academic achievement, effort, and creativity.
Students are expected to demonstrate academic honesty on all assignments, presentations, tests,
and examinations. Cases of academic dishonesty will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis, and will
involve an investigation, communication with the student and the parent/guardian, a mark of zero will
be assessed for the work that is deemed plagiarized.
Plagiarism or cheating includes:
Copying, reproducing or paraphrasing any portion of someone else's published or unpublished
material, and representing these as one's own thinking by not acknowledging the appropriate
source, or by failing to use appropriate quotation marks;
Asking for or giving someone an answer during an evaluation;
Unauthorized use of notes, class work, and electronic media to obtain or provide answers
during an evaluation; and presenting assignments that have been completed by someone else
as one’s own.
This applies to all evaluations including lab reports, diagrams, essays, and computer projects and
images. Different forms of writing require different types of acknowledgment and/or
documentation.
If a student cheats, he/she will receive a mark of zero as a penalty, the student’s other
teachers may be alerted, and he/she risks suspension from school. Further consequences, such
as loss of the credit, may result if the zero leads to a final grade of less than 50%.
ACADEMIC HONESTY
Students are expected to be academically honest by submitting their own original work, and
the marks they receive are intended to reflect their own academic achievement. Academic
dishonesty in any form is a serious offence.
20
CONSEQUENCES OF ACADEMIC DISHONESTY
When plagiarism is detected, the following process is to be followed:
1. Investigation
When a teacher comes across evidence of plagiarism, the teacher will discuss the matter
with the student(s) involved.
2. Communication
If the teacher confirms that plagiarism has occurred:
the teacher will inform the vice-principal with specific details regarding the plagiarized
assignment; and
the teacher will inform the parent(s)/guardian, document the situation, and inform the vice-
principal
3. Minimum Consequences for Plagiarism
A mark of zero will be awarded for the assignment in question, as there has been no
evidence that the student has demonstrated research skills required to demonstrate
achievement of the course expectation.
At the discretion of the teacher, there may be an opportunity at another time for the
student to demonstrate evidence of proper research skills.
Depending on the nature of the offence, the student’s other teachers may be alerted.
The severity of the offence and the number and nature of previous offences will be taken into account
when determining the consequences of second, and any subsequent offences.
All students accused of plagiarism have the right to appeal the teacher’s decision to the school
administration. This can only be done after they have first discussed the matter with their course
teacher.

CODE OF CONDUCT cybridge @ George Harvey Collegiate Institute promotes responsibility, respect, civility, and
academic excellence in a safe learning and teaching environment.
All students, parents, teaching and support staff have the right to be safe, and to feel safe, in their
school community. With this right comes the responsibility to be law-abiding citizens, and to be
accountable for actions that put at risk the safety of others or oneself.
At George Harvey we believe in a progressive approach to discipline. Suspension is always a last
option.
The Provincial standards and TDSB guidelines of behaviour apply to students, and to all other
individuals involved in the publicly-funded school system – parents or guardians, volunteers, teachers
and other staff members – whether they are on school property, on school buses, or at school-
authorized events or activities.
Students, parents, and staff at cybridge @ George Harvey Collegiate Institute have developed the
following guidelines. These guidelines are intended to ensure a safe, positive, and inviting school
environment.
EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR REASONS FOR… CONSEQUENCES
OPENING EXCERCISES
Students in the hallways are expected
to stand quietly during the playing of our
national anthem. During announcements,
students not in class should proceed
quietly to their class and/or to the
office.
As a resident of Canada, standing quietly
during the playing of “O Canada” is a sign of
respect for this country. Morning
announcements contain information of
interest to our school population and should
receive your full attention.
Students who refuse to co-operate during opening
exercises will be referred to a Vice-Principal.
Possible consequences may include:
Warning
Home Contact
Withdrawal of privileges
Suspension
IDENTIFICATION
Students must identify themselves if
asked to do so by a member of staff.
Persons are required by law to identify
themselves when asked to do so by a staff
member.
Students who refuse to identify themselves or
who provide false identification may be:
Home Contact
Suspension
23
EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR REASONS FOR… CONSEQUENCES
APPR0PRIATE DRESS
Students are expected to wear the
school uniform purchased from:
R. J. McCarthy’s Ltd.
Outerwear such as heavy jackets must
not be worn, and it is advisable to leave
heavy winter boots in lockers.
No headgear (except religious) is to be
worn inside the school.
The school uniform promotes membership
in the school community and pride in the
school.
The school is heated in winter, so heavy
outerwear is not necessary in class and in
fact may pose a health or safety hazard in
shops. In order to maintain a clean building,
muddy, wet or snow-covered boots should
be exchanged for dry shoes while in school.
In the case of a dispute over the appropriateness
of any student’s attire, the Principal or Vice-
Principal will make a judgment.
Consequences for non-compliance may include:
Home Contact
Withdrawal of privileges
Suspension
ATTENDANCE
Students are expected to attend all
scheduled classes regularly and on time.
Note of Absence
When a student is absent, a note is
required from a parent/guardian or from
the student if he/she is 18 years of age.
The note is to be given to the Home
form teacher upon the student’s return
to school.
“A pupil shall attend classes punctually and
regularly" (Education Act). Regular
attendance is necessary for students to be
successful. A student must be present to
be an active and participating member of
the class and learn.
“When a pupil returns to school after an
absence a parent/guardian … or the pupil,
where the pupil is an adult, shall give the
reason for the absence, orally or in writing
as the Principal requires” (Education Act).
When a student is absent, the parent/guardian will
be contacted by telephone. Excessive absences
may result in removal from a particular class or
classes.
Failure to present a note could result in the
following consequences:
Home Contact
Detentions
Withdrawal of privileges
Suspension
Punctuality
Students are expected to be on time for
all classes, exams, appointments, and
school functions.
Punctuality shows one’s consideration for
other people, and is an excellent habit to
develop for both on-the-job and personal
relationships.
Consequences for students who are not punctual
may include:
Warnings
Missed assignments
Detentions
Home contact
Suspension
Late for School
Students are expected to be in
homeroom when the bell sounds at 8:45
am.
Students who arrive late for class in the
morning or after lunch, will have an
automatic detention unless they provide
a reason for the lateness.
Detentions are served after school.
Students who arrive late for school classes,
for school appointments, or for any school
function, cause inconvenience for all people
involved. They also are jeopardizing their
own academic success.
A detention will be assigned for an unexcused late
to school.
The steps below may also be followed with
students who are continually late for school
without a legitimate reason:
Warning
Letter sent home
Detentions
Suspension
24
EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR REASONS FOR… CONSEQUENCES
Late for Class
Our timetable allows a four-minute
“travel-time” between classes. Students
are expected to proceed directly to
their next class. Those who do not are
considered late for class. Students who
are delayed by a teacher should get a
note to present to the teacher who is
expecting them.
Students may receive detentions for
frequent lates.
Students who arrive late miss valuable class
time and may disrupt the rest of the class
upon their arrival.
The school has an obligation to know where
students are during the day.
Students who are late may be referred to a Vice-
Principal.
Consequences may include:
Contact with parent/guardian
Missed assignments
Detentions
Suspension
Sign-in
Students who arrive after 9:15 a.m. must
sign-in at the main office.
Sign-out
Students who wish to leave school, for
any reason, during the day must sign-out
at the office.
Students who have appointments during
the school day are required to bring a
note. In the case of unexpected, sudden
illness, contact with the parent/guardian
will be required before the student is
signed out.
In the event of an emergency, everyone’s
whereabouts are particularly important so
that everyone may be accounted for.
Students who do not sign-in will be reminded of
the need to do so and, if they persist, will be
referred to a Vice-Principal.
Students who do not sign-out as required will be
referred to a Vice-Principal for action which may
include:
Warning
Contact home
Detention
Suspension
Failure to bring a note will necessitate a telephone
call to confirm the appointment with a parent or
guardian.
Skips
Any unauthorized absence from class
(skipping) is unacceptable.
LOCKERS
Lockers are to be used to store your
property (coats, boots, textbooks,
knapsack, etc…) during the school day.
Lockers cannot be shared.
The Education Act requires students to
attend classes punctually and regularly.
Students who skip class are missing
valuable class time and schoolwork.
Lockers are provided for your convenience.
You don’t have to carry multiple items with
you, they are safely stored during the
school day, and you and your classmates are
not bothered by extra items lying around.
Students who skip class will be referred to a Vice-
Principal. The parents will be informed and if the
problem persists, a parent interview will be
required. Skipping may result in:
Withdrawal of privileges
Detention
Suspension
Removal from class
Lockers must not be used to store unlawful or
inappropriate items.
Lockers are school property, and may be opened at
any time by school administration.
25
EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR REASONS FOR… CONSEQUENCES
CONDUCT IN THE HALLS
Students are not permitted in the halls
during class time without their Hallway
Pass.
Students are not to congregate around
doorways, thereby blocking passage
through the doors.
Students are expected to vacate the
building by 3:30 p.m. unless directly
involved in a supervised activity.
Students are expected to show respect
for the fact that they are in a school
building, which is a learning institution.
Loud voices and excessive commotion in
areas where teaching and learning is
going on is unacceptable behaviour.
The noise created by a group of students
can be disruptive to nearby classes.
Students who wish to read or study are
encouraged to use the library. Students
wishing to socialize should go to the
cafeteria, or leave the building.
Students can learn more effectively in
quiet, comfortable surroundings. Loud
voices in our hallways, stairwells, and
classrooms disrupt the learning process and
are unfair to those trying to study. In
particular, the library should be a quiet
place where serious students can work
without distraction.
Possible consequences include:
Withdrawal of privileges
Detention
Suspension
Students whose behaviour causes a disturbance in
the halls, stairwells, etc., will be asked to refrain
from loud and unnecessary noise. If students do
not lower their voices when asked to do so by a
staff member, or if they continue to cause a
disturbance, the student(s) will be referred to a
Vice-Principal. Disciplinary action may include:
Warning
Home contact
Withdrawal of privileges
Detention
Suspension
Hall Pass
Students in halls during class time must
have their Hallway Pass. Students with
an unassigned period must be en route to
the cafeteria or library and must show
their official timetable.
Movement in the halls must be kept to a
minimum to provide a quiet learning
environment. Teachers are legally
responsible for those assigned to their
class during each period.
Failure to comply may result in:
Detention
Suspension
Students Sent to the Office
Students who are sent out of class are
to go directly to the office. They are
not to loiter in the halls or stairwells,
and are required to proceed directly to
the office to see a Vice-Principal.
Students must accept responsibility for
their actions and be prepared to face the
consequences.
Failure to report directly to the office may result
in:
Home contact
Detention
Suspension
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
Hold & Secure
and Evacuation Procedures
When a Hold and Secure (or “Lockdown”)
occurs, students must go to the nearest
enclosed safe space. Complete silence
must be maintained, and students are to
sit out of view of windows, until the
Emergency Situation has ended.
In extreme cases, the school may need
to be evacuated. In such an event,
follow your teacher’s instructions
clearly, and stay together at all times.
During these procedures, if people do not
follow directions there is the risk of
serious injury or even death.
Any student who fails to comply with emergency
procedures will be referred to a Vice-Principal.
Consequences may include:
Warning
Home contact
Detention
Suspension
EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR REASONS FOR… CONSEQUENCES
26
Fire Alarm
When the alarm sounds, all persons must
proceed quickly and quietly, without
delay, to the proper exit as posted in
each classroom. All persons are required
to leave the building immediately and
move well away from the exits. All
students must remain with their
teachers while outside the building.
Attendance must be taken. No one is to
return until the “all clear” signal (3 rings)
is sounded.
We must always assume that the alarm is
indicating a real fire. It is a criminal
offence to sound a false alarm.
Any student who willfully sounds a false alarm may
be:
Suspended
Prosecuted under the law
$500 fine will be imposed if a fire truck is
dispatched
TECHNOLOGY USE
Use of personal audio players, hand-held
electronic games, cell phones and iPods
are not permitted during class time, in
the office, the library, or any place
where they may cause a disturbance.
Laser pointers are not permitted in the
school.
A quiet environment, conducive to learning,
is encouraged at cybridge @ George Harvey
Collegiate Institute. Loud music, hand-held
electronic games and ringing phones are
not agreeable to others who wish to
concentrate on their studies. Loss of such
items is not covered by school insurance.
Unauthorized technology may be confiscated
by the office
Warning
Home contact
Withdrawal of privileges
Detention
Suspension
Computer Use
Vandalism of computer hardware, local
area/wide area networks, peripherals
and/or software is against the law.
Copying of commercial software, the
copying of another student’s work for
submission or viewing another student’s
electronic exam, test or assignment is
not permitted.
Unauthorized use of the operating
system, adjusting computer settings
and/or changing program preferences
are not permitted.
Laptop Use
Laptops can be used anywhere in the
school or at home, using our wireless
technology over the internet.
Cyberbullying will be treated as
severely as any other form of bullying.
Computers are powerful learning tools
provided by the Toronto District School
Board and are to be treated with the same
care and respect given to any other school
property.
Laptops will enhance learning by allowing
Learning anytime, anyplace!
Consequences for abuse of computers may include:
Removal of computer privileges
Parental contact
Mark penalty on assignment
Suspension from course/school
Legal action to retrieve costs to TDSB.
Consequences for misuse of laptops are the same
as for misuse of other computer technology.

27
CODE OF EXPECTATIONS
Cheating (Academic Fraud)
Students must submit for evaluation only
their own work or the work of their
assigned group.
Cheating is morally wrong. According to the
dictionary, to cheat means: ”to swindle or
defraud; mislead or delude or act
dishonestly”. This is unacceptable conduct.
If another person’s work is submitted the
teacher will not know if a student is
experiencing difficulty and the student will
miss opportunities for further help, and no
learning will take place.
If a student copies or submits the work of
another on an examination, test or assignment, a
mark of zero will be assigned.
If a student hands in work which has been copied,
from another student, both students will receive a
mark of zero.
Parents will be notified, and there may be
suspensions.
Fighting
Fighting will not be tolerated.
Play-fighting is also unacceptable. It
has no place among teenagers and young
adults, sets the wrong example for
younger students and for visitors, and
can often lead to real fights.
Fighting is not an acceptable way to resolve
conflicts.
Students who are involved in a fight anywhere on
school property, while representing our school, or
while travelling as part of a school trip, may be
suspended and parents/guardians notified. Police
may also be notified.
Gambling
Gambling of any kind will not be
tolerated.
By law, gambling is strictly controlled.
Gambling is not permitted on TDSB
property.
Failure to comply my result in:
Withdrawal of privileges
Home contact
Suspensions
Police contact
EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR REASONS FOR… CONSEQUENCES
Harassment/Bullying
Students are to be courteous and
considerate in dealing with others.
Racial, ethnic, religious, sexual, or
physical harassment will not be
tolerated. Incidents of harassment must
be reported to the Principal.
Note: “Sexual harassment can be
defined as unwelcome sexual innuendoes,
sexual advances, inappropriate body
contact, and requests for sexual favours
that intimidate, demean, or offend an
individual” (Board Policy & Procedures
Manual).
Cyberbullying (sending unwelcome
messages, spreading rumors or lies on
the internet, Twitter, Facebook and
other social media) is a form of bullying
and will be dealt with equally severely.
Our school has a responsibility to prepare
students for success in a multicultural
society. Students and employees must be
permitted to perform their duties in an
environment that is free from harassment.
School rules are based upon respect for
self and for others, and are designed to
provide a positive, safe, and orderly
environment. Board Policy states that “the
Principal will communicate in writing to the
appropriate supervisory officer all student
complaints of racial, ethnic, and religious
incidents between students, staff and
members of the community”.
.
Incidents of harassment, be they racial, ethnic,
religious, sexual, or physical in nature, should be
reported to the Vice-Principal or Principal.
Individual circumstances will dictate the
consequences, which may include:
Warning
Home contact
Referral to guidance or other appropriate
counseling service
Withdrawal of privileges
Detention
Suspension
Referral to authorities, including police
EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR REASONS FOR… CONSEQUENCES
28
Littering
Littering is unacceptable, both in the
school and on school grounds. Students
are expected to deposit garbage in the
containers provided. Due to the
possibility of spillage, eating and drinking
in our hallways, stairwells, and front
foyer is not permitted.
Our Caretaking staff works hard to keep
our school clean, and we must do our part
as well.
Students who litter will be referred to a Vice-
Principal. Consequences may include:
Withdrawal of privileges
Detention
Suspensions
Smoking
Smoking is not permitted in the school
or on school property.
Smoking on school property is prohibited by
Provincial legislation.
Students who are smoking on school property may
face:
Withdrawal of privileges
Detention
“Smoking ticket” from a by-law enforcement
officer
Fine
Swearing/
Objectionable Language
Students are expected to use language
which reflects respect not only for
themselves, but also for other people.
Swearing, offensive language, and “teeth
kissing” or any other obvious sign of
disrespect will not be tolerated.
Use of vulgar, profane language or gestures
is considered rude. Use of objectionable
language or gestures shows disrespect for
the school and for oneself.
Any student who swears at a staff member may be
suspended. If a staff member overhears students
using objection-able language, a warning will be
issued. If necessary, the matter will be referred
to a Vice-Principal for further action.
Consequences may include:
Home contact
Detentions
Withdrawal from class
Suspension
Vandalism/Respect for Property
Students are expected to respect school
property and the property of others.
Walls, lockers, desks, books, and other
school property are to be kept free
from damage.
Vandalism will not be tolerated.
It is strongly recommended that
valuables and money should not be left in
lockers or change rooms.
Damage to school property may result in
expensive repairs. The expense is paid by
the taxpayers of this community. Those
taxpayers are your parents/guardians.
While the school does its best to prevent
vandalism, student property in lockers and
change rooms is the responsibility of the
student
.
Property damage must be reported to the main
office. Students who damage school property will
face:
Home contact
Requirement to pay for the damages
Detention
Suspension
Police contact
EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR REASONS FOR… CONSEQUENCES
29
PARKING
Students are not generally permitted to
park in either the north or south parking
lots. Five spots have been designated in
the north lot for student parking.
Access is on a first-come basis.
Students wishing to use these spots
must complete an application from Ms
McClennan in the main office.
School parking lots are the property of the
TDSB, and are for the use of Board
employees and visitors only. Parking is very
limited.
A student parking without a visible school permit
or not in a designated spot may have the car
towed and ticketed by police. Subsequent parking
violations may result in:
Referral to a Vice Principal
Parking privileges revoked
SPECTATOR CODE OF BEHAVIOUR
It is expected that spectators will:
be in full uniform
not bring food, beverages, or
school bags into the gym or stands
cheer in a positive manner
respect the decision of the
officials
respect the athletic facilities and
property
respect the authority of the TDSB
staff members who are
supervising games
be courteous and respectful to
fellow spectators
not interfere with the game in any
manner
refrain from the use of profanity,
taunting, threatening actions, or
violence
behave in accordance with, and
subject to, all TDSB policies and
Code of Behaviour
leave the venue in a quick and
orderly fashion upon completion of
the game.
Spectators are an important aspect of
school athletic events. The attendance of
students, parents, guardians and members
of the community serves to complement the
experience of all those involved in sporting
activities.
Spectators who are unable to meet the expected
behaviour may face:
Request to leave the gym
Withdrawal of gym privileges
Home contact
Detention
Suspension
