Overview
The purpose of the RCSD Code of Conduct is to set standards for student behaviors that promote an environment conducive to learning, safety and order in school. It is our goal to provide students with a safe and secure learning environment at School #12. In order to do that, we need to have rules for all members of our community. Your cooperation and support is greatly appreciated.
Code of Conduct Rules for School #12
1. Possession of any weapon (real or toy) or incendiary device (firecracker, matches, etc.) could result in an automatic long-term suspension.
2. No fighting (real or play) or hitting on school grounds.
3. Speak respectfully to others (no swearing, threatening or insulting).
