Student Removal from the Classroom (JD)

A student shall be immediately removed from a classroom by his/her teacher and placed in the custody of the principal if the student's behavior prevents the orderly instruction of other students, poses an immediate threat to the safety of the teacher or other students, or when a student violates the Student Code of Conduct. Upon removal, the principal shall advise the student of his/her misconduct and give the student the opportunity to explain his/her version of the facts. The student shall not be readmitted to the classroom until the principal has implemented support measures and has assigned consequences as applicable. Students shall not return during the same class period in which the behavior occurred. Students shall be provided with the academic assignments missed and shall receive credit for such work if completed satisfactorily and timely. The principal shall notify parents of any student removed from the classroom and may require a disciplinary parent conference. Students shall not be readmitted to the classroom until the principal has implemented and documented at least one disciplinary measure. Upon a student's third removal from the same classroom, prior to the student’s readmittance, the teacher, principal, and parent are required to hold a conference to discuss the student's disruptive behavior patterns.
