Director's Description to School's Approach to Discipline
At Christ the Cornerstone Academy we do not think of the term "discipline" as meaning punishment but rather a teaching of self-control, Christian attitude, orderliness and efficiency. We require mutual respect and cooperation between students and adults. Students will be expected to maintatin high behavioral standards so that a classroom environment exists enabling teachers to teach to the optimum of their abilities. Students not meeting these high standards will be given every opportunity to correct their behavior. Therefore, teachers will deal with children in accordance with the teachings and philospohy of Christ. The teachers will tolerate actions acceptable for certain levels of growth, channel actions when necessary, and stop any behavior or conduct that interferes with learning activities or the safety of other children. The children will be taught to understand that for happy living it is necessary to love one another, and respect one another's rights and privileges. The classroom teacher will communicate specific guidelines and standards. (Excerpted from CTC Student/Family Handbook)
