Discipline, Health and Safety

Overview

Director's Description of Approach Toward Discipline

Children are re-directed if misbehaving and given other solution alternatives. If negative behavior persists a time out is issued with an after discussion. If negative behavior is still a problem a time out with privilege deduction becomes last resort.

Food Allergies

- We ask parents to provide child-safe snacks for their allergic child

Medications

- We keep their medication on hand at all times

- We call parents when the child needs medication
