STUDENT BEHAVIOR STANDARDS

FOR ALL SCHOOLS IN THE CORONADO CLUSTER .  .  .

Being a student at Chipeta is a student’s “job” in the same manner that parents have jobs at home and in the workplace.  The qualities and behaviors which create success later in life are much the same as those expected  at school.  It is important for all of us (students, parents and staff) to know what is expected of students and then encourage and support them in being the best they can be.   Each student should be aware of and demonstrate the following:

BE READY TO LEARN

      -enter the classroom on time

     -have necessary supplies

     -have appropriate materials out and ready

     -rarely be absent from school

     -obtain missed assignments if absent

     -take responsibility for my own learning

     -begin independent learning activities without prompting

EFFORT AND PARTICIPATION

     -demonstrate my BEST effort on every assignment

     -participate actively in my own learning

     -follow directions

     -listen with respect to my teachers and peers

     -share information and opinions during class              discussions

     -complete assignments to the best of my ability and turn assignments in on time
