Narrative comprehensively explains why the student code of conduct was developed the way it was and thoughtfully explains how the student code of conduct ensures academic and social success for every student by promoting integrity, fairness, social justice, equity, acceptance, and respect between and among students and faculty within the school.

SUPPORT YOUR NARRATIVE WITH 3 SCHOLARLY RESOURCES.

Elements of an Effective Code of Conduct

  1. Establish expected behavior. Codes of conduct should enumerate those behaviors that the student is expected to demonstrate. These behaviors may become the system’s/school’s core values. Generally codes of conduct state that students are expected to:
    • Demonstrate respect for self and others.
    • Demonstrate courtesy to others.
    • Behave in a responsible manner.
    • Attend class regularly.
    • Be prepared for class.
    • Take seriously the course of study.
    • Dress appropriately.
    • Cooperate with school officials.
    • Respect other’s property.
    • Avoid violation of student code of conduct.
  2. Encourage parent, community, staff, and student support. Community and parent/council support of the system and its discipline code is critical. The system must ask parents, and may wish to include staff, students, and community representatives to serve on the team developing the code. This cross-section of the community will allow for broad representation of ideas and values. Codes must also specify how communications with parents and the community will be maintained throughout the discipline process. Once completed, the code should be shared with all interested parties and any feedback should be given serious consideration.
  3. Are written in easy-to-understand terms. Write codes in clear and concise language identifying unacceptable behavior and specify the consequence that will be administered for engaging in the behavior.
    Clear and concise codes are essential for understanding and support of an orderly school by the community and parents. Clear and concise codes also help teachers and other school personnel who are responsible for administering them to act swiftly and with authority. An example of a code statement is as follows:

    • Behavior: Destruction of school property.
    • Consequence: Parent conference; After-school detention; Assignment to In-School Suspension.
    • Student codes of conduct/discipline policies shall identify consequences to address specific misbehavior as specified by law (O.C.G.A. § 20-2-751.5).
  4. Include consequences for unacceptable behaviors, as defined by the local system, from minor to severe. Schools must facilitate the development of self-discipline in students. Neglecting to address minor unacceptable behaviors such as rudeness and other disruptive actions may lead to more serious behaviors. Codes that focus on one or the other may undermine the development of self-discipline in students. For schools to maintain a safe and orderly environment, systems must handle the full range of unacceptable behaviors.
  5. Match consequences with the severity of the misbehavior. Codes should list separately minor and severe misbehavior with the resulting disciplinary action. Codes constructed in this format allow students to immediately identify the range of actions, from loss of privileges to expulsion, that may result from misbehavior.
  6. Require prompt removal of dangerous and chronically disruptive students from the learning environment. Georgia law authorizes teachers to remove from his or her classroom any student who repeatedly or substantially interferes with the teacher’s ability to communicate effectively with the students in the class or with the ability of the other students to learn. When the student’s behavior violates the code of conduct, steps are outlined as to the procedure schools must use to notify parents and obtain appropriate placement of the student. Appropriate placement may range from suspension to participation in an alternative school.
  7. Provide for the annual review and updating of the code of conduct. Based on the statistical data collected regarding discipline, the school should review the code to determine if corrections, additions or deletions are necessary. Data and feedback of staff, parents/council, and students are critical to keeping the code of conduct relevant to the student body. Sharing the data with the community and parents ensures the perception of a safe and orderly school.
  8. Take into account any disability of the student when addressing misbehavior. All discipline of students with disabilities must follow the requirements of Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, IDEA, and the Georgia Special Education rules.

This is from a Georgia school district’s website.  Again, this isn’t the Code of Conduct. It’s what it might include.
