OUR CORE BELIEFS ABOUT DISCIPLINE:


    S.M.S. adopted the Positive Behavior Intervention Supports model from the Kansas State Department of Education.  As part of this  
    process we have examined and created our core beliefs about discipline:

    *Students are given opportunities to make decisions and live with the consequences, good or bad.

   *Whenever possible, students should see a reasonable connection between their actions and the consequences that follow (logical 
     consequences).

    *Students should be guided through dialogue and expected to solve problems and adopt new behaviors without creating problems for
      anyone else.

    *Every attempt will be made to maintain dignity of the student and the adult during a discipline situation.

    *Teachers will take time to guide, teach, and reward student behavior.

    *What teachers do will depend on the special person and the special situation.
