Discipline Guidelines

The most important guideline is always common sense about what is best in a particular situation. Each child is different and our goal is always to help each one grow in understanding of how to live in harmony. Children who threaten the safety or disrupt the educational process of others will be removed from the classroom or playground until they can participate with positive and cooperative behavior.
