UrduConsequences and Disciplinary Procedures
Disciplinary action at Westshore will be determined by each individual situation. All students and parents should recognize and respect the disciplinary role of the teacher and the administration in the classroom, in the school at large and during all extra-curricular situations. In addition, other adults such as supervisory and classroom aides, as well as office and custodial personnel, may play an important role.
Disciplinary actions may take a variety of forms which may include, but not be limited to, reprimand, detention(s), service work and loss of privileges. Specific disciplinary actions for the following are:
Alcohol and Drugs
The school will not tolerate any involvement by students with alcohol or other non-prescription drugs. Involvement includes suspicion of substance usage, possession of the substance at school whether it is used or not, or being under the influence of alcohol or a drug while at school or at school sponsored activities whether on or off the main campus. Involvement with alcohol or drugs will lead to an immediate suspension from school. As well, the local police may be informed. Upon returning to classes students will be expected to meet with school administrators. Students will be required to complete the PASS Program requirements and may be required to meet with the school Youth and Family Counselor to explore the need for drug and alcohol counseling. If the behavior persists, students can expect meetings with teachers and administrators to discuss their behavior, and if drug/alcohol use persists, meetings involving administrators, students and their parents will follow.
If no positive change is seen, students may be withdrawn from the regular school timetable and scheduled into Distributed Learning courses. Students will work from home and have access to teacher assistance in the Storefront on specifically scheduled days. Students have the opportunity to earn credibility and subsequent re-enrolment in the regular school timetable in the following semester. Failure to demonstrate progress may result in a student being denied the privilege of attending Westshore.
