Discipline Policy under Review, Feedback Welcome
Virtual informational sessions scheduled next week
The Las Cruces Public Schools Board of Education will be reviewing proposed Policy JK, Implementation of Student Code of Conduct and Discipline Philosophy, and invites parents to several virtual informational sessions before providing feedback to the district.
The policy, as drafted, provides a philosophy of discipline that will guide staff and students in promoting good behavior in an environment that is conducive to effective and efficient learning. It addresses disciplinary actions, including mitigation strategies, and prohibited actions, such as corporal punishment.
A draft is available to parents here, and a version in Spanish can be found here.
Parents are invited to one of four virtual information sessions to discuss the draft in detail, and are asked to attend by high school feeder patterns:
