Discipline Code: Civility, Bullying, Profanity Grant's 2010-2011 School-wide Plan for Success Disciple Code, the 3-R Discipline Program: Rules, Responsibility, and Respect, commits to ensuring that district campuses will be safe, secure and violence free places where all students can learn and achieve to their fullest potential. Therefore, drugs, weapons, profanity, verbal abuse, offensive physical contact, and assaults will not be tolerated. Students and adults who engage in these behaviors must accept the consequence that are associated with these behaviors. Students can report dangerous situations, threats of physical violence, acts of vandalism, and gang activity 24 hours a day by dialing 844-0400. The 3-R’s—Rules, Responsibilities, and Respect—are important components for everyone to follow. For more information see attachment.
