Code of Conduct

The discipline policy at Sturgeon Heights School works to develop in every student the capacity for intelligent self-control and decision making.Our primary goal is to provide for a positive, safe and caring learning environment which safeguards the right of the student to learn and the right of the teacher to teach. We believe we must help children to extinguish behaviors that are violent or disrespectful to others and to make restitution for inappropriate actions. Also, we believe that we need to provide opportunities for children to practice and gain the skills in care-giving and to develop characteristics of caring people.

A sense of trust among all must be attained for this to happen. We do not tell our students to care but we show them how to care by creating caring relations with them. Home and school alike must share the responsibility for teaching children appropriate acceptable behavior.
