Committee refines discipline rules: definitions, supervision and consequences
Summary
The Policy Committee reviewed and refined discipline sections in the student handbook, adding consequences for leaving campus without permission, confirming ISS supervision arrangements, and requesting clearer definitions and approval procedures for detention and suspension practices.
The Policy Committee reviewed a set of discipline changes proposed for the student handbook, including a new provision adding consequences for students who leave school without permission that would include parent notification, classification as an unexcused absence, and detention. The committee corrected a typo in the high-school discipline section and recommended simplifying discrimination-complaint procedures for readability.
Members confirmed that In-School Suspension (ISS) will be supervised in the front office by available staff and flagged the need for clearer definitions of ISS and Out-of-School Suspension (OSS). The committee also requested explicit supervision procedures if phone-policy violations increase ISS assignments and a clarification that administrative approval is required for lunch detentions.
