Discipline Code

At Roberts, our goal is to nurture self-esteem as we help students learn to make good behavior choices, show self-discipline, and accept responsibility for their actions. Parents are expected to be active supportive partners in their child’s educational program. Parents will receive a link to an electronic copy of the Code of Student Conduct: Your Rights and Responsibilities. This book details the expectations for student behavior and the consequences for misbehavior. Students are expected to adhere to the Code of Student Conduct at all times when participating in school activities both during and after regular school hours. It is the parent’s responsibility to review the Code of Student Conduct with his/her child.

The administrative staff is charged with maintaining adequate discipline in each school. The teacher is responsible for the care, discipline, and instruction of pupils in his/her care and as assigned by the principal. The entire staff enforces all rules governing the conduct of pupils about the building and campus. Students will be treated reasonably, fairly and with patience, but persistent misconduct will not be tolerated. Parents will be advised promptly when students begin to have difficulties which might lead to suspension, reassignment, and/or expulsion. (State Law Section 37.000) The school may prohibit any action which impairs, interferes with and/or obstructs the educational process or function of the school.

Children will not be permitted to attend extra-curricular activities (field trips, assemblies, participate in programs, etc.) if their conduct (P or U) does not warrant participation.
