Director's Description to School's Approach to Discipline
Our goal is to help each child to develop the social skills necessary for group interaction. This is done through positive feedback for good behavior, and by promoting the rewards that come from sharing, working and playing together. We understand that conflict is normal and that each child faces the challenge of learning to share and compromise. Our task is to help the child to develop the inner resources needed in learning to resolve conflict in a positive way. We promote the simple respect for each individual?s rights. When inappropriate behavior is displayed, the child is asked to choose between an individual activity, or remaining in the present activity with a behavior change. If the behavior is not corrected, our response is to place the child in a ?time-out? situation, or sitting in a chair for a brief period. We do not ?time out? a child by placing them in ?in a corner?, we feel this is humiliating to a child. They will be timed-out to sit briefly in view of an adult.
Food Allergies
- We do not allow certain foods in the classroom
- We ask parents to provide child-safe snacks for their allergic child
Medications
- We can keep meds for chronic illness on hand, such as for asthama, diabetes, etc.
