Discipline and
Code of Conduct
|
| |
Discipline is an integral part
of the learning process. In order to develop self-control,
the student must be helped to understand his/her
emotions and impulses, to live in harmony with
others, to respect the rules of the family, to
keep the laws of the country and to obey the laws
of God.
Every teacher and Principal shall have the right
to exercise the same authority as to student conduct
and behavior as do the parents or guardians of
the student. Student responsibilities include
regular school attendance, conscientious effort
and classroom work, and conformance to school
rules and regulations. Most of all, students share
with the administration and faculty the responsibility
to develop a climate within the school that is
conducive to wholesome learning and living.
No student has the right to interfere with the
education of his fellow students. It is the responsibility
of each student to respect the rights of teachers,
students, administrators, and all others who are
involved in the education process. Students should
express their ideas and opinions in a respectful
manner so as not to offend or slander others. |
