7. What is Horse Play?
We are all about making Wise Choices. As a result, our students refrain from engaging in HORSE PLAY!
Horse Play is rough play that can include playing, fighting, hitting, slapping, kicking, wrestling, jumping on a friend’s back, etc. While Horse Play often starts off to be fun, it often escalates to one or both students becoming angry. Fights often begin with Horse Play.
Horse Play disrupts the flow of transitions and disrupts learning.

8. Students ARE expected to comply with the direction/instruction of any staff member immediately. To refuse to follow instructions of a staff member is Insubordination.
Walking away and/or speaking to a staff member in an inappropriate manner (tone and/or language) is considered insubordination and will not be tolerated. Remember Respect Builds Character!
