OVERVIEW: This sheet, along with several others explaining
the year's program, is given to students at the beginning of
the school year. The teacher and students discuss each item.
Students are encouraged to ask for clarification of any
item. A copy is sent home to parents. Teachers that make
their policies and practices well known and consistent will
find that they have few problems when it becomes necessary
to discipline students. Parents will support your efforts
when they are aware of your desire for complete fairness in
dealing with students.
