Corinthians 4:21 (The Message)
So
how should I prepare to come to you? As a severe disciplinarian who makes you
toe the mark? Or as a good friend and counselor who wants to share
heart-to-heart with you?
You
decide.

**** Note – As per
school policy, Reflection Forms will
be used when a student’s behaviour requires more serious reflection and
consequence.
1. I will
give the acknowledged speaker my full attention in class and will not
interrupt him or her. If I do, I will
receive one warning per class. After the
warning, if I continue to disrupt the class, I will pay 2 credits to the person
I interrupt. If I violate this rule a
third time, I will be moved out of the room and will need to discuss the
situation with Mrs. Robideau. If Mrs. Robideau leaves me outside for an
unusually long time, she will pay me 5 credits as retribution for her
forgetfulness.
2. The
class will be allowed to eat small snacks and have drinks with a covered lid in
class. However, if I accidentally
make a mess, I will be required to clean up my mess. If I leave a mess for someone else to clean
up, I will do one housecleaning chore to benefit others. (eg. Clean desks, playground garbage pick up, clean
the microwave etc)
3. Everything
I say in class will be positively contributing, encouraging and beneficial to
the class. I will refrain from using inappropriate slang in the
classroom. I will refrain from
communicating negative comments about anybody!
If I violate this rule, I will immediately apologize. Depending on the
severity of the remark, I may be required to do some follow up discussion with
Mrs. Robideau or the student involved (reflection form).
4. I will
be allowed to ride my scooter, bike, skateboard, roller blades only when I am
OFF school property during the hours of 8:15 to 3:15 on school days. I can
ride them at Ben Lee with a helmet
during daily physical activity times. If
I violate this rule, I will pay a 5 credit fine to the bank. If I am slower
than Mrs. Robideau arriving at the crosswalk, I will pay 5 credits.
5. I will
respect others’ property and personal space. If I do not, I will correct the problem by
repairing or replacing any property that is damaged and/or apologizing to the
person whose personal space or property I disrespected. This includes NOT going
behind Mrs. Robideau’s desk or touching her computer without permission. A
payment of credits may be required. Mrs. Robideau will supervise the correction
to make sure it is done properly. You
may also lose the privilege of using wheels at the skate park for a designated
amount of time.
6. I will
keep my cell phone or other electronic devices in my locker during the school
day. With permission, I may be allowed to occasionally use it for
videotaping school projects or contacting
parents.
7. I will obey Mrs. Robideau when she
yells, “Freeze” and immediately stop what I am doing. I will not
talk, or move but stay still as a statue until she says, “Melt” or “Unfreeze”. Then I will listen quietly
to what she needs to say. If she catches me moving or talking, I
will pay 5 credits. Also, if I am not in my desk when she counts down at
the beginning of class, I will also pay the fine of 5credits.
8. In learning to be
responsible and organize my time well, I will strive to limit trips to my
locker or to the washroom/water fountain. I will receive a warning from Mrs.
Robideau if this is becoming a distraction or showing lack of responsibility or
organization then I will have to pay a specified fine.
9. I will
work to the best of my ability during class time and strive to use my time
wisely. I will plan to complete all
homework assignments and study for my tests. If a valid reason for not completing work
arises, I will be responsible and communicate with everyone involved and work
for an alternative way to compete the assignment. If I show up on the day unprepared, I will
spend my recess and lunch time finishing the work or studying for the
test.
10. I am able to use fidgets during class time
if they are able to fit in my hand, don’t make too much noise, and are not
distracting to other students or the teacher.
If I am not obeying this rule, I will allow the fidget to be
confiscated and I will get it back at the end of the day.
I, _______________________________
will abide by the above rules and consequences to the best of my ability. I acknowledge that Mrs. Robideau is in a
position of authority over me and has the final say in all these disciplinary
matters. I am signing on the date,
_____________________. This contract is
in effect until the last day of grade 7.
