Code of Conduct

Many have been wondering about the new Syracuse City School District Code of Conduct. Tah-dah! We have a draft copy right here. Further revisions are expected. Once the draft is completed, at least one public hearing with comments and feedback must take place before the Board of Education is allowed to vote on whether or not to adopt it.

SCSD Draft Code of Conduct

What do YOU think?

Does it go far enough in ensuring the maintenance of a safe, chaos-free learning
environment for ALL students in the district?

Does it adequately safeguard the rights of students and staff?

Will it create an environment where students learn appropriate ways to
handle anger and frustration? 

Does the district have the right resources in place to effectively implement this code?

Will it impact instructional time for students in the classroom?

  1. Instruction time will decrease. When I cannot have a disruptive student removed, the other students will lose out. It is not the first time I ask a student to stop talking, it is the thousandth time I ask them becomes a problem. What does society not understand about this. Police do not ask you several time to obey the law. I get one chance. Why do we keep giving students chance after chance after chance. Those students who are only in school to "have a good time" should have their own school.
