Our behavior policy will be enforced
for all inappropriate behavior issues in order to create consistency.
These issues will be handled in the following order:
First offense: Verbal reminder that the behavior/action is inappropriate, and asking the child to make an appropriate choice.
Second offense: Removal from activity to time out area in room.
Time out will be equivalent to one minute per year/age of child.
(Example: 5 minutes = 5 years of age)
Third offense: Child
will be removed from activity and will report to the Patriot Pals
Administrative Office. Child will again be reminded why the
behavior/action is inappropriate.
An Incident Report will be written
documenting the problem, punishment, and solution. Parent/Guardian and
student signature will be required.
A
“hurt to hit”, destruction of school property, or eloping will never be tolerated. Any infractions of this type
will go immediately to step 3 in the discipline process, and will result
in a phone call to parents, as well as, a 1 day suspension from Patriot
Pals.
If more than 3 Incident Reports are written for a child within
1 calendar month, the child may be suspended for 1-3 days from the Patriot
Pals program. The Director/Assistant Director of Patriot Pals, after
consulting with school administration, may terminate a child’s
participation in the program.
