Classroom Behavior
Generally, standards throughout the schools should be the same. However, each teacher is expected to specify rules and procedures suited to the specific needs of the class. Disturbances which interrupt the learning process cannot be permitted by any teacher.
The teacher has the responsibility and authority to maintain order anywhere in the school, particularly, of course, in the classroom. When a student repeatedly disrupts a class or refuses to accept the teacher's authority, that student should be referred to an administrator for appropriate action.
If a teacher finds it necessary to send a student from a classroom for any reason, the student is to report immediately to the main office or other designated location.
To be reinstated in the class, the student must confer with an administrator or designate.
