We believe that the role of the school, as that of the
home, is to provide firm but loving guidance and discipline to assist
the child toward the attainment of the eventual goal of self-discipline.
In order to accomplish this crucial goal, we believe that children in
their young and formative years require positive guidance coupled
with well-defined limits of behavior. The observance of these limits
gives the child sense of inner security, and contributes towards the
formation of strong moral character.
The child must know, for example, that s/he will not be allowed to harm
him/herself, others, or the property of others. Also, a child will not be
permitted to interfere with the learning process. If s/he transgresses
these limits, s/he must be prepared to accept the required
consequences. Developing self-discipline takes the combined efforts
of students, parents, and teachers.
We encourage parents to allow their children to be accountable for
school behavior and academic success
