Sallie Jones Elementary has a positive discipline plan for students. This plan is based on the belief that students react favorably to positive reinforcement. Positive reinforcement allows teachers to increase academic time, and administrators can significantly decrease the amount of punishments and suspensions. Teachers and administration follow the Charlotte County Public Schools Code of Conduct for student discipline.
UNIFORMS: The way we dress influences our attitude about our work and ourselves. When students are dressed appropriately for school, they know it’s time to learn. Our dress code will provide students with a feeling of pride and unity. Students will wear red, orange, white or navy blue polo shirts and navy or khaki bottoms. Tennis shoes must be worn every day. The principal or the principal’s designee request that students’ apparel conform to the established Sallie Jones Elementary School Board Approved Uniform Dress Code Policy. When it is determined that a student’s clothing does not comply with the dress code or is disruptive, a parent/guardian may be asked to bring an appropriate change of clothes to school, a student may be sent home to change clothes (Code of Conduct, p. 17), or a loaner uniform will be given to the student to wear. See the Sallie Jones Elementary School Board Approved Uniform Dress Code Policy for more information.
PBIS: We use PBIS, which stands for Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports, to proactively teach and reinforce positive behaviors across the entire school environment. We aim to improve student conduct, academic achievement, and overall school climate by creating clear expectations, consistently recognizing positive actions, and providing targeted support for students who need extra help. We believe this will ultimately lead to a more positive and productive learning environment for everyone involved.
