Referral Forms Two referral forms will be used this
year. One is for DOCUMENTATION of a
problem in the classroom—minor offenses handled by team or teacher.
Two is for more serious infractions that may result in an ISS or Suspension. With the exception of Flagrant infractions, we need the team to meet with the student and parent before referral is worked.
PARENT CONTACT No student can be out of school
suspended without TALKING with a parent. This is a non-negotiable. There is no getting around this. If a parent cannot be reached, the child will go to ISS.
PLEASE CALL PARENTS before a suspension is needed.
Instructional Activities Please plan activities that will run
as close to BELL to BELL. Students (human beings) want
structure in their lives. Increase Reading and Writing in all
classes. NO MOVIES will be approved unless
able to correlate with standards.—Use a clip, not the whole film.
ISS For minor classroom disruptions a
teacher can fill out an ISS referral. The student will sign a copy and
receive a copy. They can go immediately to ISS for the REMAINDER of the class.
ISS If a student has gone 3 or more
times in a week or has been assigned ISS 3 or more times in a day or if the student has become a continuous student in ISS. The ISS teacher will refuse to accept the student until a Team meeting is held with student and parent (if possible).
ISS If ISS is full the ISS teacher will send
a email to all staff letting them know that ISS is full for the day.
ISS teacher will keep a log of all students that enter ISS, Why, and What teacher sent them to ISS.
At the end of the day ISS teacher will send a list of students and the duration of ISS left for them to complete.
