The Deans Office encourages the use of restorative practices for dealing with petty infractions, such as being 0-4 minutes late or being out of dress code. This may entail students staying after class to help clean up after arriving late, or being required to wear formal dress following a dress code violation. This is an effort to insert restorative responses that give back to the community and/or produce a moment of reflection or learning. A weekly report will be kept in the Dean of Students Office and communicated by the form deans. However, students are responsible for keeping track of their points and should regularly check their attendance record via their Sundial page. Restrictions: Restrictions are technology free study halls held during a student’s free blocks or during free time on the weekends as designated by the Dean of Students Office. There may be times that the Dean of Students Office alters when and where restrictions will occur. Students must come prepared to read or do homework without using a computer or phone. Students may not sleep during this time. An email will be sent to students on Thursday morning alerting them to this requirement. Only one (1) approved, rescheduled restriction will be allowed per term. Accumulation of Points The accumulation of five (5) points or more during the course of a trimester will likely result in the following: • The student will receive one weekend restriction. • The student and their advisor will receive an email outlining the points and the advisor will address the matter with the student. The accumulation of ten (10) points will likely result in the following: • The student will receive one weekend restriction. • The student and their advisor will meet with the student’s Form Dean. The accumulation of fifteen (15) points will be referred to the Lower Honor Board and will likely result in the following: • The student will attend a meeting with a body of their peers to discuss the pattern of conduct infractions. The advisor and a member of the dean’s office will be present. • The Lower Honor Board will discuss restorative actions to help provide support for the student. • The student will receive a Letter of Concern about their behavior, which will be sent to parents and advisor.
