Code of Conduct

General Behavior and Discipline

The school staff and parents are jointly responsible for teaching students the importance of respectful behavior to enhance student learning. Students are taught to be responsible for their own behavior.

Discipline is the process of holding students accountable for their actions and it should always be a learning experience for the individual. Discipline protects the rights of the group, as well as the individual. It is a process where anger management and conflict resolution skills are learned and applied by the student. Most problems are minor and infrequent and can be corrected by a staff member and the student working together.

It is our hope that in maintaining high expectations at school, students will be able to generalize the acceptable standards of conduct and problem-solving skills into their larger world.

Cedar Trails students will follow the “Wolf Pack Pledge:”
