Behavior Policy

All parents are asked to read the following Code of Conduct and Discipline Policy with your child. The Board of Trustees, together with a large number of parents and staff, established this policy. The school will follow this policy without exception.

In keeping with the vision of our charter, the staff of the Queen City Academy endeavors to create and maintain a supportive, cooperative, and collaborative learning community that values each child for his individuality and his importance to the school. The staff educates the whole child by means of teaching in many styles, modeling and role-playing appropriate behaviors, offering encouragement and positive feedback, using rewards and logical consequences to identify beneficial behaviors, and planning cooperative learning experiences. The staff communicates frequently to the home and welcomes the partnership between the home and school.

The age and level of development of each child is always taken into consideration when dealing with occurrences in the school environment. Each child is given every opportunity to succeed by using variations and combinations of the following experiences on a daily basis to help each child develop self-confidence, respect, high ethical standards and responsibility. These learning experiences are planned into the curriculum and are also used whenever and wherever an opportunity arises.
