Title
D3 - ADVERTISEMENT AND NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING TO THE 2020- 21 STUDENT HANDBOOK AND CODE OF STUDENT CONDUCT
Description

Per statutory requirement, the 2020-21 Code of Student Conduct is being noticed prior to its official adoption by the School Board of Clay County in August of 2020.  The Code of Student Conduct is a policy adopted by the district that defines and describes the expected behavior of students while in the learning environment, and guidelines to administrators on addressing conduct infractions through intervention and consequences.

Gap Analysis

The Code of Student Conduct is updated annually to address new statutory requirements and strengthen existing language based on a review of discipline data profiles.  Due to the pandemic, additional language has been added to the Code to reflect student expectations when utilizing distance learning as an extension of the traditional classroom and academic honesty.

Strategic Plan Goal

Goal 3: Establish a respectful climate and culture that provides equity and access to all. 

Recommendation

Advertise the 2020-21 Student Handbook and Code of Conduct
