Addressing Teacher Behavior


Organizational StructureFlow of Discipline Practices

Administrator’s Philosophy Concerning Discipline—changing teacher behavior.

1. Discipline is a classroom management issue.2. Teachers are responsible for discipline.3. Discipline referrals are not tools that manage

discipline.4. Must be a process of intervention before a

referral can be written. 5. All referrals have a section identified as “prior

action taken by teacher.”


Before a referral can be accepted in the front office, it must go through the intervention process.
