Student-Parent Handbook

The Student-Parent Handbook consists of violations and disciplinary measures and interventions for students. This Handbook serves as a guide for students, parents/guardians, teachers and administrative personnel. Although the disciplinary measures to be used are district wide, schools may use their own intervention strategies in addition to the strategies listed in the Handbook.
