Common use of TEACHER PROTECTION AND STUDENT DISCIPLINE Clause in Contracts

TEACHER PROTECTION AND STUDENT DISCIPLINE. When, in the judgment of a teacher, a student requires the attention of pupil-personnel employees or other specialists, he/she will so inform the principal or designee either orally or in such writing as may be required, using forms provided, for referral to certain services. The principal or designee, after consultation with the teacher, will arrange, if necessary, for a conference with the teacher, and the service specialist to discuss the problem and to decide upon appropriate actions. A teacher may refer to the principal or designee for appropriate action, a pupil who seriously interferes with the learning opportunities of other children in the classroom. The teacher shall communicate in writing (or, in person, in cases of extreme emergency) the nature of the problem to the principal or designee. If such communication is done in person, a written report must be filed with the principal or designee as soon as possible and ordinarily no later than the close of the school day. A standard check list referral form shall be used within each school for such referrals. The teacher may recommend in this referral that the pupil be detained outside the classroom for a minimum of the remainder of the class period. If such recommendation is made by the teacher, the principal or designee is obligated to give it immediate consideration.
