Expectations of Student Behavior. To maintain a sound learning environment, the District shall expect acceptable behavior on the part of all students who attend school in the District. The District recognizes the right and responsibility of a staff member to take appropriate disciplinary action to correct a student who disrupts normal classroom activities, abuses or insults a staff member, willfully disobeys a staff member, uses abusive or foul language, violates school rules, or otherwise interferes with an orderly educational process. In incidents that require administrative intervention the staff member will make reasonable effort to inform the appropriate administrator as to the nature of the offense.

In incidents that require administrative intervention the certificated staff member will make reasonable effort to inform the appropriate administrator as to the nature of the offense. Discipline, as that term is defined in WAC 392-400, shall be enforced fairly and consistently regardless of race, creed, sex, or status. Such discipline shall be consistent with applicable federal and state laws and shall not interfere with a student’s right to due process as set forth in WAC 392-400, Student Procedural and Substantive Due Process Rules. Discipline cases that involve Special Education or Section 504 students will be governed by applicable state and federal laws.
