Safe Positive Schools
Anti-bullying
École Sister O'Brien School is a place for learning and appropriate behavior is expected. We, at École Sister O'Brien, encourage all students to:
- attend school regularly and conform to the rules of the school
- participate willingly in their learning
- respect others' safety, well being, and property
- be accountable for their behavior and responsive to reasonable, related and respectful consequences
- participate in creating a safe, positive environment conducive to learning
We believe that every child has the right to feel safe at school. Physical abuse (hitting, punching, kicking, etc.), verbal abuse (name calling, swearing) and bullying will not be tolerated.
Consequences for inappropriate behavior will be progressive, ascending from lenient to severe: quiet verbal reprimand, denial of privileges, school service, removal from class, detention, alternative out of class programming and suspension. Parents will be notified by a phone call or letter in regards to more serious situations.
