Classroom Rules

At Potomac Elementary we have a school wide discipline system in place called PBIS (Positive Behavioral Intervention and Supports) through T-TAC at ODU/William and Mary. It consists of the following classroom rules & expectations:

SELF CONTROL

  • hands and feet to self (personal space)

  • inside voice

  • control feelings

ORGANIZED

  • be prepared

  • take care of space

  • follow directions

ACHIEVING

  • on task

  • complete assignments

  • put forth best effort

RESPECTFUL

  • be your best

  • listen to others

  • use kind words

  • be honest

If students do not follow these rules, either a Minor Discipline Report (MIR) or an Office Discipline Report (ODR) will be written. Parents are required to sign the form and return it the next day upon receipt.
