Continued behavior will end up in a suspension.

1. Bullying, harassment and vandalism is never to be encouraged, even off school property.

2. Clothing that shows too much skin will not be allowed, and if you are caught disobeying this rule you are expected to call home and recieve a new pair of unrevealing clothes.

3. Parents cannot stay for classes unless if they are visiting the nursery, Pre-K or Kindergartenwings.

4. Inappropriate language will not be tolerated and will result in a phone call home.

5. Electronic devices are not allowed on school property unless if in emergency cases, or if they are being used on the playground.
