At South Bronx International Middle School, we believe that students are capable of making decisions and being held accountable for their actions, both positive and negative. If a student disrupts their learning environment and those of others:
First Incident: Teacher conducts a brief check-in with student
Second Incident: When teacher has a moment, teacher will pull student to the side and have a brief conversation that outlines classroom expectations and follow up consequences if behavior continues
Third Incident: Student will be sent out of the room to check-in with either the Social Worker, Community School Director or Principal. A mediation will occur between student and teacher to resolve any and all issues.
Fourth Incident: A mediation will occur between the school, teacher, social worker and/or community school director, principal, student and the student’ family.
