Behavior Chart A behavior chart will be posted in each classroom. Each learner will have a pocket or clip on the

chart. Each color on the chart indicates to the student how he/she is doing and whether or not an

award or consequence will be necessary as a result of choices the student has made. This system will

be implemented in all classrooms, including resource classes and lunch. A note will be placed on the

classroom clipboard to let the classroom teacher know if there are students who should receive

rewards or consequences for their choices during special classes.

3. Contact sports cannot be played at school.

DISCIPLINE REFERRAL Teachers should teach students the School Wide Discipline Plan during the first weeks of school and

revisit throughout the year as necessary. Components of the plan should be posted in a visible

location. Learners and parents should be notified in writing of classroom expectations. Teachers

should execute the discipline plan in a consistent and fair manner. When students know the

expectations, they will comply and excel!

Procedure for Discipline Referrals:

1. Use the Discipline Referral Form to refer learners to an administrator. You must send the

completed form with the student.

2. After action is taken, a copy of the Discipline Referral Form with the action taken will be

placed in your box. An additional copy will be sent home with the student.

Please remember that a referral to an administrator’s office should be the last resort utilized. The

Duval County Code of Conduct is an excellent reference to use when deciding which offenses

should be referred to an administrator. For example, failure to bring materials and failure to complete

assignments are not causes for disciplinary referrals (Class I offenses). All teachers are to familiarize

themselves and their learners with the Duval County Code of Student Conduct. Conduct Assemblies

will be held at least twice per year to support the discipline plan.
