SCHOOL CLIMATE

Purpose Statement
 
The purpose of school-wide behavior expectations at Harriet Tubman Middle School is to provide a safe, positive and orderly environment conducive to academic, social and character development for our students in a warm and responsive environment. This environment must be free from disruptions, which interfere with the educational program. Our democratic process demands that we not only protect the rights of those students who may have been disruptive, but that we equally protect the rights of students who are on task consistently and engaged in learning. We view discipline as another learning opportunity, stressing prevention and intervention.

 Expectations for all students in Tubman shall be designated to promote behavioral changes enabling students to function successfully.

Due process is ensured to students as part of a major suspension informal hearing procedure, expulsion procedures, and for alcohol and drug violations.
