Discipline and Student Management

North Gwinnett Middle uses a school-wide student management plan in which all faculty and staff work in a cooperative effort to encourage a successful learning environment. This plan is designed to ensure an effective learning atmosphere for all students and to curtail any minor inappropriate behaviors that disrupt the learning environment. This plan coincides with current school procedures and Gwinnett County Code of Conduct for Students.

Signing the Agenda Book Student Response Form indicates you have reviewed and understood the GCPS Code of Conduct. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact an administrator. Students are expected to follow the GCPS Code of Conduct as well as local school policies and procedures.

NGMS will implement a school wide discipline plan in an effort to assist students in correcting their behavior before making a referral to an administrator. Students are expected to follow all classroom, school, and district rules.

Expectations:

• Take responsibility for being on time, having your materials, and being ready to work.
• Follow directions the first time given.
• Keep your hands, feet, and objects to yourself.
• Wait to be recognized before speaking.
• Follow all county and school rules and policies.

Consequences:

• Warning

These steps will begin anew in each class each day. The administration has the authority to issue a Modified Bulldog Discipline Plan for individual students.
