INTRODUCTION

The Hendry County School Board has adopted the following:

Mission

The mission of the Hendry County School District is to provide all students the opportunity to achieve at high academiclevels, equipping them to successfully pursue college or career goals.

Vision

The vision of the Hendry County School District is to create a district where students want to learn, parents want tosend their children, teachers want to teach, and employees want to work by a commitment to:

Academic Achievement – Student academic engagement at the highest level reflecting college and career readiness.

Instructional Effectiveness – Teachers and leadership creating a climate of rigor, relevance, and high expectationsbased on state and national standards.

Collaboration – Working with parents and community stakeholders to create a working partnership for academicexcellence and student success.

Culture – Cultural diversity respected by all and individual strengths are maximized in a safe and secure environment.

Belief Statements

* Children come first in decision making.* All children can learn.* High expectations for all lead to success.* A safe and caring learning environment is essential.* Everyone deserves respect and is important to the educational process.* Open and honest communication is essential.* Improvement must be continuous and change must reflect best practice.* Education should promote responsible citizenship and ethical behavior.* Our schools are a valued investment.

Guiding Principles

* The needs of our students come first.* Decisions must reflect our belief and mission statements.* All individuals must be treated with respect.* All communication must be direct and honest.* We expect professional standards to guide our actions, and we will always adhere to our code of ethics.* Decisions must reflect effective resource management, sound fiscal practices, and include a cost benefit

analysis.

In addition the district will provide a school environment that protects the students’ health, safety, and civil rights; that isdrug and threat free; and presents a friendly, caring atmosphere conducive to learning and growing.

The purpose of this document is to assist students, parents, teachers, and school administrators in the maintenance ofan environment which will enhance the achievement of this objective. To be fully effective, the Code of StudentConduct will be communicated annually with updated polices and standards by distributing to all students, parents, andstaff at the beginning of the school year; and by addressing not only the role of the parents, the students, and theschool but specified areas relative to the following:

1. the grounds for disciplinary action;

2. the procedures to be followed for acts requiring discipline, ; including corporal punishment;-

3. the responsibilities and rights of students.

You are encouraged to read and develop a thorough understanding of the details presented in this publication.

-CHAPTER 1-

WHAT IS THE CODE OFSTUDENT CONDUCT AND WHY

DO WE NEED IT?

Students need an environment that is positive for learning and considers the safety, health, and well-being of allstudents, parents, and staff. To help provide and maintain that environment, the Code of Student Conduct:

-Describes that positive environment.

-Specifies conduct which is disruptive of such an environment.

-Standardizes those procedures which the school will use in responding to conduct problems.

-Assures equally the rights of students in disciplinary situations.

-Specifies the student’s rights and responsibilities.

As students progress through our public schools, it is reasonable to assume that an increase in age and maturitycarries with it a greater responsibility for one’s actions. Differences in age and maturity are recognized in determiningthe type of disciplinary action to be taken. However, the procedures outlined in the Code apply to all students ingrades K-12.

The Code is in force during regular school hours as well as at such times, places, and other activities whereappropriate school administrators have jurisdiction over students, including, but not limited to, school-sponsoredevents, field trips, and athletic functions.

With respect to student conduct while being transported on school buses, it should be understood that students aresubject to denial of the privilege of riding a school bus for violation of appropriate standards, even if they are nototherwise denied educational participation. Transportation privileges may be restored by the principal, following aconference with the parent and student when, there is a good reason to believe the conduct in question will not recur.

WHAT DOES THE CODEDESCRIBE AS A GOOD SCHOOL ENVIRONMENT?

Good order and discipline are best thought of as being positive, not negative; of helping a student to adjust, rather thanto punish; and of turning unacceptable conduct into acceptable conduct. Order and discipline may be described as theabsence of distractions, frictions, and disturbances which interfere with the effective functioning, including the safetyand health, of the student, the class, and the school. It is also the presence of a friendly yet businesslike atmospherein which students and school personnel work cooperatively toward mutually recognized and accepted goals.

1

WHAT ROLES DO THE HOME, STUDENT, ANDSCHOOL HAVE IN ESTABLISHING THIS

ENVIRONMENT?

The Code recognizes the need for cooperative relationships between student, parent, and educator. This relationshipis exemplified as follows:

PARENTS/GUARDIANS WHO- keep in regular communication with the school concerning their child’s conduct and progress;- insure that their child is in daily attendance and report and explain an absence to the school;- provide their child with the resources needed to complete classwork;- assist their child in being well-groomed, neat, and clean;- bring to the attention of school authorities any problem or condition which affects their child or other children- of the school community;- discuss report cards and work assignments with their child.

STUDENTS WHO- attend all classes daily and are on time;- are prepared to come to class with appropriate working materials and are respectful to all individuals and

property;- refrain from profane or inflammatory statements or obscene gestures;- conduct themselves in a safe and responsible manner;- are well-groomed, clean, and neat;- abide by the rules and regulations set forth by the school and individual classroom teachers;- seek changes in an orderly and recognized manner.

SCHOOLS THAT- encourage the use of good guidance procedures;- maintain an atmosphere conducive to good behavior;- exhibit an attitude of respect for students;- plan a flexible curriculum to meet the needs of all students and promote effective training or discipline based

upon fair and impartial treatment of all students;- develop a good working relationship among staff and with students;- endeavor to involve the entire community in order to improve the quality of life therein.

WHAT TYPE OF INFORMAL DISCIPLINARYACTIONS ARE RECOGNIZED IN THE CODE?

A major consideration in the application of the code is that the most appropriate disciplinary action taken by schoolofficials is the least extreme measure that can resolve the discipline problem. Teachers and administrators strive touse a variety of informal disciplinary/guidance steps prior to formal disciplinary action. Some of these methods includethe following:

- Teacher-student conference.-- Teacher-parent conference or contact.-- Counselor-student conference.-- Counselor-parent conference or contact.-- Administrator-student conference.-- Administrator-student-teacher conference.-- Administrator-parent conference or contact.-- Administrator-student-parent conference.-- Student-program adjustment.-

2

WHAT TYPE OF FORMALDISCIPLINARY ACTIONS ARERECOGNIZED IN THE CODE?

The Code of Student Conduct recognizes five additional strategies which may be used as an alternative to suspendinga student or as a follow-up to suspension or temporary removal from class.

DETENTION HALL - A school may elect to provide a Detention Hall as an alternative to suspension for certainconduct. Each school specifies those types of conduct for which Detention Hall may be assigned for any one conductproblem. It should be emphasized that due to problems of transportation and supervision, Detention Halls may not beoffered in all schools. Detention Hall may include any program outside the normal student/school day and may includebut is not limited to after-school or Saturday-school.

BEHAVIORAL PROBATION - Any student involved in a violation of the Code of Student Conduct may be placed onBehavioral Probation in addition to, or in place of, suspension from school. The student on Behavioral Probation maybe denied participation in extracurricular activities and will be assigned to report frequently to a specified staff memberwho will assist in monitoring the student’s adjustment to the school situation during this probationary period.

WORK ASSIGNMENT - A school may elect to provide the student with an opportunity to perform supervised activitiesrelated to the upkeep and maintenance of school facilities instead of suspension. This alternative is not to exceed 10hours of work. The student and parents may request this alternative; however, the decision rests with the principal.

CORPORAL PUNISHMENT (PADDLING) - Subject to rules of the District School Board, the principal or his/herdesignated representative may administer corporal punishment in attempting to comply with his/her responsibility forcontrolling and disciplining students assigned to him/her.

In accordance with the provisions of s.1003.32, corporal punishment of a public school student may only beadministered by a teacher or school principal within guidelines of the school principal and according todistrict school board policy. Another adult must be present and must be informed in the student’s presenceof the reason for the punishment. Upon request, the teacher or school principal must provide the parent awritten explanation of the reason for the punishment and the name of the other adult who was present.

A district school board having a policy authorizing the use of corporal punishment as a form of disciplineshall review its policy on corporal punishment once every 3 years during a district school board meetingheld pursuant to s. 1001.372. The district school board shall take public testimony at the board meeting. Ifsuch board meeting is not held in accordance with this subparagraph, the portion of the district schoolboard’s policy authorizing corporal punishment expires.

Parents may request an exemption from corporal punishment be placed in the student file. An exemptionfrom corporal punishment may not be removed without written authorization from the parent.

Upon request, the parent has a right to a written explanation of the reason for corporal punishment and thename of the other teacher or administrator who witnessed the act.-

ALTERNATIVE MEASURES - Subject to the rules of the District School Board, the principal or his/her designee mayrecommend educational alternatives as deemed appropriate for individual students on a case-by-case basis.Alternatives may be provided in lieu of denial of education participation.

DENIAL OF EDUCATION PARTICIPATION - In order to maintain effective learning conditions, the Code alsorecognizes that it may be necessary to deny a student educational participation for varying periods of time for reasonsof persistent disobedience and/or gross misconduct. If a student is denied educational participation, effort will beexerted to determine and resolve the causes of the problem so that the student might return to school and theclassroom. There are two possible types of denial of educational participation:

1. SHORT-TERM SUSPENSION FROM SCHOOL;

2. EXPULSION FROM SCHOOL.

3

The following describes these actions:

SHORT TERM SUSPENSION - A school principal may suspend a student from school for up to 10 school days forpersistent disobedience and/or gross misconduct. Principals take this action when they have exhausted informaldisciplinary strategies or when they have at least considered those alternatives and rejected them as inappropriate in agiven situation.

EXPULSION - A school principal may request the superintendent to recommend the expulsion of a student. This isthe most serious disciplinary step available. It denies the student attendance in any and all programs of the HendryCounty Public Schools for a period not to exceed the limitations as prescribed by the Florida Statutes.

ACADEMY PLACEMENT – A recommendation for academy placement and an alternative educational plan may bemade by the school’s principal, student’s child study team or IEP (Individual Educational Plan) placement committeeand referred to the superintendent or his/her designee for approval. Academy placement may be considered for any ofthe following reasons: in-lieu of expulsion for an- expellable offense, .habitual truancy, or chronic disruptive behavior-.Documentation of student behavior and interventions, due process procedures, and parent notice must precede anyrecommendation for placement. Additional details of the academy placement process may be found in the PupilProgression Plan.

WHAT SAFEGUARDS PROTECTTHE RIGHTS OF STUDENTS AND PARENTS?

When disciplinary actions reach the level of corporal punishment or- suspension of a student, it should be noted thatthe following procedural steps are designed to protect the interest of the student.

A good faith effort will be made by the principal to employ parental assistance or other alternative measures prior tosuspension, except in the case of emergency or disruptive conditions which require immediate suspension.

The student shall have the right to be- advised why he/she is being suspended;- provided an opportunity to refute the charges;- provided an opportunity to submit to the administrator a list of names of other individuals who might have

witnessed the incident.

If suspended, parents will be notified as soon as possible no later than 24 hours. A suspension notice will be mailed toparent/guardian.

A student may be suspended immediately.

It is the responsibility of the superintendent to notify parents as to the time and place of the hearing.

An Agreement for Acceptable Use; Policies for the Acceptable Use of Electronic Media Resources andCommunications

Electronic communication, including, but not limited to, telephone, computer, e-mail, Internet and Intranet, offer HendryCounty Schools an exciting opportunity to expand teaching and learning for students and educators. With thisopportunity comes the responsibility for appropriate and acceptable use. Each student, parent, teacher, andadministrator should read this document carefully prior to signing the contract for Acceptable Use. A signature on the“An Agreement for Acceptable Use” is an obligation to comply with the terms and conditions outlined in thisdocument, and it is a requirement in order to access or use these resources.

OVERVIEW

The telecommunications network accessible to all of Hendry County’s educators and students should promoteeducational excellence by facilitating resource and information sharing, research, technological innovation andcommunication.

With worldwide access to information also comes the availability of material that may not be considered to be ofeducational value in the context of the school setting. There may be some material or individual communicationswhich are not appropriate for school-aged children. The Hendry County School District views information gatheredfrom the Internet in the same manner as other reference materials identified by schools. Specifically, the districtsupports resources that will enhance the learning environment with guidance from faculty and staff.

At school, student access to and use of the network will be under teacher direction and monitored as any classroomactivity. The school district is not able to prevent the possibility of user access to material that is not consistent withthe educational mission, goals and policies of the school district when access is obtained outside of the school/districtnetwork.

Internet access is coordinated through a complex association of government agencies and regional and statenetworks. The use of these resources is a privilege. Inappropriate use will result in the cancellation of that privilege. Itis the school district’s intent that the Internet, Intranet, and other electronic methods of communication be used in aresponsible, efficient, ethical and legal manner. This relies heavily on the proper conduct of the users who mustadhere to strict guidelines. School and district administrators will decide what is appropriate use based upon schooland district standards. Their decision is final. If a district user violates any of these provisions, his/her account will beterminated and future access will be denied. Serious violations may result in school disciplinary action or legal action.

Acceptable Use:

The personal use of these communication/research tools should be held to a minimum. The PRIMARY purpose ofthese resources is to promote educational excellence by facilitating resource and information sharing, research,technological innovation and communication within the Hendry County Schools’ Learning Community. Theseresources should NOT be used to solicit others for political, union, religious or commercial purposes.

The inappropriate use of these resources includes, but is not limited to- data related to personal outside businessinterests, announcements for yard sales or sale of other personal items, sexually explicit or suggestive materials,cartoons, jokes or any material that may be construed as harassment, personally offensive or that violatesschool/district standards, policies or procedures.

Further, these resources shall NOT be used for any illegal purposes including, but not limited to, threats or harassmentof students or staff. The use of telecommunications, or any other electronic media for the purposes of incitement orsolicitation of illegal or prohibited acts, increases the severity of the initial incident and may constitute an expellableoffense. Likewise, the use of these media for the purpose of harassment or bullying increases the severity of theoffense and the potential consequence. In addition, these resources shall not be used to violate a student’s or a staffmember’s rights to privacy. Special care should be given to the privacy rights of students. Publishing studentinformation, names and photos should be done with care and may be prohibited by written request of theparent/guardian.

5

Communication outside Hendry County Schools’ Learning Community should be closely monitored. Certain forumsshould not be accessed. These may include, but not be limited to, chat-rooms, unsupervised bulletin boards, roleplaying games or private communication with unknown persons or organizations. Information that is accessed shouldbe appropriate for the age and developmental stage of the student. When this is difficult to assess refer to theprovisions of Board policy 414, Selection of School Media.

Any method used to evade the District’s filtering of inappropriate content or to gain access to private or privilegedinformation may constitute a Level 23, 208 312 – Unacceptable Access to a Restricted Area. Serious cases mayresult in a Level 4, OMS OMC – Other Major Incident, . or a TRS – Trespass-. Level 4 incidents constitute expellableoffenses. This may include, but is not limited to, the use of proxy servers, hacking software, etc.

WHAT TYPES OF VIOLATIONS DISRUPTTHE EDUCATIONAL PROCESS?

The Code of Student Conduct contains 40 distinct violations identified by principals, administrators, teachers, students, and thecommunity which are representative of those acts which frequently cause disruption of the orderly educational process.

It should be pointed out, however, that this list is not all inclusive and as such a student committing an act of misconduct not listedwill nevertheless be subject to the discretionary authority of the principal.

The unlawful possession or use of illicit drugs and the unlawful possession or use of alcohol is wrong and harmful at anytime or in any place.

“Cheating” is not specifically addressed in the Student Code of Conduct. Misrepresenting academic work as a student’s originalproduct is cheating, and this behavior is both unethical and disruptive to a healthy learning environment in school. A school maysanction a student for disruptive behavior based upon receiving or providing of unauthorized academic assistance or plagiarism. Inaddition to disciplinary action, schools may withhold academic grades or credit. The use of electronic devices to capture or transmittesting and assessment information is cheating, and it may constitute a Level 4, OMC – Other Major Incident offense.

Bullying is systematically and chronically inflicting physical hurt or psychological distress on one or more students or employees,and may involve but is not limited to teasing; social exclusion; threat; intimidation; stalking; including cyber stalking; physicalviolence; theft; sexual; religious, or racial harassment; public humiliation; and destruction of property.

Bullying, Harassment, Threats and Intimidation constitute a set of aggressive behaviors that seriously disrupt the positive andorderly learning environment in a school. The potential damage to the victim demands intervention by school authorities. Thesebehaviors are addressed in the Code of Conduct: Level One - Disrespect and/or Harassment of Others (102); Level Three -Serious and/or Chronic Harassment – Intimidation (306), and Sexual Harassment (SXH) and Bullying/Harassment (BHA); LevelFour - Threat/Intimidation (TRE). The use of telecommunications, or any other electronic media, broadens the scope of theharassment/bullying and increases the severity of the offense. School officials will consider the methods of dissemination andcommunication in judging the severity of both the offense and the resulting consequences. The origins of these communicationsmay occur outside of school, but they may still impact the school’s safe, positive, and orderly learning environment. The schoolretains jurisdiction over any activity, regardless of origin, when that activity negatively impacts students or the school’s learningenvironment.

Bullying incidents should be reported to the Principal’s Office at the school where the alleged victim is enrolled; the District SchoolBoard Offices in either LaBelle or Clewiston. A District Bullying/Harassment Complaint Form is available on the Hendry CountyDistrict website: www.hendry-schools.org.

A person commits the offense of video voyeurism and dissemination when that person captures and/or creates an image thenintentionally disseminates, distributes, or transfers the image to another person for the purpose of amusement, entertainment,sexual arousal, gratification, or profit, or for the purpose of degrading or abusing another person.

A major consideration in the application of the Code of Student Conduct is to identify the most appropriate disciplinary actionnecessary to bring about positive student behavior. To that end, the 40 violations have been divided into 5 subgroups and a varietyof administrative actions have been suggested or mandated, dependent upon the severity of the misconduct.

It is important to note that the principal and teacher, consistent with the powers delegated to him/her, have the authority to takeadditional or more severe administrative action if, in his/her opinion, the nature of the misconduct warrants it.

The following chart lists these violations and the recommended or mandated disciplinary action. All components are effective 24hours a day, 365 days a year.

ZERO TOLERANCE FOR SCHOOL VIOLENCEREPORTING OF CRIMES AND/OR

DISRUPTIVE BEHAVIOR

School authorities are required to report zero tolerance incidents to the Administration at the District School Board.

The School Board enforces the Florida Department of Education Zero Tolerance Policy on school violence, crime, andthe use of weapons. As an approach to reducing school violence, the intent of the policy is to provide a safe schoolclimate that is drug-free and protects student health, safety, and civil rights.

This policy requires the school district to impose the most severe consequences provided for in the Code of StudentConduct in dealing with students who engage in violent criminal acts, such as:

bringing or possessing a firearm or weapon to school, any school sponsored activity, or on school-sponsoredtransportation;

making a threat or false report, respectively, involving school or school personnel’s property, schooltransportation, or school-sponsored activity;

homicide; assault, battery, and culpable negligence; relating to kidnapping, false imprisonment, luring or enticing a child, and custody offenses; sexual battery; lewdness and indecent exposure; child abuse; robbery robbery by sudden snatching; carjacking; and serious fight

The State of Florida Juvenile Justice Reform Act of 1965 requires the School District to link juvenile violent incidents tothe action taken by the student’s school and the District.

OFF-CAMPUS FELONY OFFENSES

To minimize off-campus acts that might have an adverse impact on the school environment, the District office will sendnotifications to schools of students who have been taken into custody for and/or are formally charged with an off-campus felony or delinquent act that would be a felony if committed by an adult. The principal may take administrativeaction against those students who are formally charged if, after an administrative hearing with notice provided to theparent/guardian of the student, it is shown that the incident has an adverse impact on the educational program,discipline, or welfare of the school. If the student is a student with an IEP this meeting will take place with themembers of the IEP Team.

Students and parents/guardians should be aware that felony offenses can have a serious impact on an individual’sfuture, including the following:

criminal penalties; loss of scholarship eligibility; loss of voting privileges; loss of employment opportunities; and/or loss of driving privileges

INDIVIDUALS WITH DISABILITIES IN EDUCATION ACT (IDEA); STUDENTS WITH A 504 PLAN

Behavior modification interventions that are used to address actions committed by students who meet the guidelinesestablished by the Individuals with Disabilities in Education Act (IDEA) and/or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of1973 must adhere to federal law, Florida Statutes, Florida Board of Education Rules, and Hendry County School BoardPolicies.

Suspensions and expulsions for more than ten (10) consecutive days and/or a pattern of suspensions and expulsionsthat exceed ten (10) days in a school year may be considered “changes in placement” for students with disabilities whohave a Section 504 Plan or who are enrolled in exceptional education placement under IDEA. When the student isremoved from his/her educational placement for more than ten (10) days, a manifestation determination must beconducted to consider whether other strategies, interventions, or assessments are appropriate and the student mustbe provided appropriate educational services in order to provide a free appropriate education.

BEHAVIOR ON THE BUS

The most important element in safety on the school bus is the proper behavior of students. Because of this, it isnecessary that the rules, as outlined in the Code of Student Conduct, be enforced by the drivers and administration.

All of the violations listed in the Code of Student Conduct apply to all students while at school, at school activities, andon the bus.

The most common bus misconducts include the following:

Violation of safety proceduresDestruction of propertyFighting/pushing/shovingExcessive mischiefDefacing property (writing on seats, etc.)Smoking, possession of any tobacco productsEating or drinkingRude or discourteous behaviorObscene language

19

Students may have cell phones on the bus and may use them as long as the use does not cause a disruption on thebus. If a student causes a disruption on the bus as a result of cell phone usage a discipline referral slip should be filledout and turned into the student’s principal.

Students are not to be denied access to the bus for simply having a cell phone.

It is important for students and parents to know that any violation of these rules could lead to denial of riding a HendryCounty School Bus.

SCHOOL BUS TV MONITORING SYSTEM

The Hendry County School District has implemented a video (TV) monitoring system in various school buses. Thedecision to mount TV camera boxes in the district’s school buses was driven by a concern for the safety of drivers andstudents alike. The ability to video monitor student behavior will be a deterrent to the small number of students whoexperience behavior problems on school buses, thus allowing the bus driver to concentrate on the most important taskof safely transporting students. The ability to review student behavior by seeing and hearing what actually occurredwill prove to be a great asset to individuals tasked with solving transportation discipline problems.
