GUIDEROOM- Give all staff an option of having a guideroom or being on morning duty. There are some who have guideroom that wouldn't want a guideroom and would prefer to help monitor hallways on hall/morning duty.

LUNCH- have an alternate space rather than cafeteria for lunch. Pull someone from lunch duty to be in a classroom instead to take kids who may not be able to handle the cafeteria, or those who need a quiet space.

REFERRALS- Restorative conversations should be used to help repair relationships.

STUDENT WHERE ABOUTS- if a student comes down to the principal office/guidance office/main office during transition times/lunch/or are in the office for multiple periods, can the secretaries call up to the class they are supposed to be in to let them know they are either meeting with a counselor or admin, or that they are waiting down there to be spoken to. It would help us understand their whereabouts so we don't need to call every office when they don't show up to class

Warning as consequence to referral is frustrating

Warning as consequence to referral is frustrating

# data[].attributes.body
It is frustrating when teachers have followed all of the appropriate steps before sending a repeatedly disruptive or repeatedly disrespectful student to the Principal's Suite and writing a referral (making class rules known, speaking to students individually, calling home on a previous date) and the consequence is a warning. A stronger consequence (lunch detention or after school detention) would deter the student (and whoever is aware of it) from doing that behavior again.

# data[].attributes.body
A tier of "referral"/documentation for those poor behaviors or choices (inappropriate language, running in the halls, tardy, etc.) that is "less than" our current referral. When a certain number accumulates, it results in an actual referral or large consequence. This could save time for "true" referrals that need high-attention.

These infractions don't need much attention from Admin, but should be documented for teachers and as a paper trail.

This could re-establish the authority of the middle school staff and would be quick to document and write up. This will remind students that their poor actions are unacceptable, noted by the staff members, and "follow them/accumulate" throughout their time in school.

We may need to have quarterly meetings for students to go over the building rules and expectations. (instead of just a lecture style, maybe come up with a Bingo game or something)

Have block 1 start at 8 am and then hold announcement at 9-915 in that block 1 class.

Students change guideroom teachers every year. They have guideroom teachers in their grade that way, they are in their section of the hall and we know who is wandering

Process of How & When Students can see guidance/administration

Process of How & When Students can see guidance/administration

# data[].attributes.body
In our culture today, students think all their problems need immediate attention. Students are constantly asking to go to guidance or see an administrator beginning, during, and at the end of class time.

There needs to be a way students can report their problems, have it sorted by relevance, and then guidance/administrator reaches out to the student or teacher.

# data[].attributes.body
Maintaining expectations and norms is difficult when a different group of teachers is in there each day. Lunch monitors look to lunch duty teachers (and vise versa) for guidance, and no one seems to have an answer.
Some questions that have bee brought up in the Cafe and seem to be changing often:
- What determines PLR?
- Should the students be dismissed before the bell in shifts or at the bell?
- Can students go from table to table?
- What allows students to leave the lunch room to go to another teacher's room?
- What type of behavior results in a referral?

Question: Can there be an alternate location that isn't the main office when students are being disruptive? When a student is escalated, it can be difficult to get them down there in a cordial manner.

# data[].attributes.body
Better Policy on when students can leave lunch. Students freely leave anytime to use the bathroom, go to lockers, see a teacher, go to the library. This is leading to hallway drama, skipping class, etc.

# data[].attributes.body
Teachers should be informed of referrals and consequences after they've been dealt with in a timely fashion. Teachers who have the student(s) in class should also be aware of their behavior (even if they didn't write up the referral) so teachers can monitor student behavior/peer interactions. Some referrals are quite serious and all adults who work with the student(s) should be made aware (instead of discovering the referral through the grapevine).

# data[].attributes.body
Work with APPR committee, to reduce the intensity of observations for tenured teachers (as is the case in other districts).  This would free up a lot of time for administration to be more present in the building.

# data[].attributes.body
When an incident has been dealt with (that is not a formal referral, so the teacher cannot look it up)... admin should use their secretaries to inform teachers about the update. The lack of communication is two-way. Teachers want to know when concerns have been dealt with, and admin want to know our prior interventions

# data[].attributes.body
Have teachers assigned to lunch detention or smaller lunch groups instead of being stationed in the cafeteria as their duty

# data[].attributes.body
Choose a few teachers for next year (ones that have 8th grade guideroom now) to be one morning duty. Which would replace a guideroom and mean the teacher does hall duty in areas where there isn't as much teacher presence in the building

# data[].attributes.body
Cafeteria needs to be smaller spaces. More welcoming and with places for kids to not be in direct contact with the rest if the cafeteria. Teachers in the cafeteria have groups they work with and develop relationships with. Bad behaviors bring kids to lunch detention where they are separated from other students. Break up the cafe into smaller areas with less students per area.

# data[].attributes.body
Have a lunch line for grab and go with salads/sandwiches at the other lunch entrance.  Allow students to eat outside when the weather is nice.  Have more lunch duty monitors that have lunch in their classroom or separate locations. Allow students to go to the Library to work quietly once they finish eating. Have a gameboard room available for students when they finish eating. Maybe invest in foosball, air hockey tables for kids on the prinicpal's list.

A board in the hallway that lists out latest infraction and the discipline outcome - then everyone will know the cause/effect

Once we develop a plan, we need to unify as a building to solve the problem. Everyone has to be on board to be the solution.

Is there a way we can use the ID card to scan as passes? They scan when they walk in and out of school, rooms, etc. This can be used when boarding buses, getting into the school..we know where kids are. It will also give tangible data for students in and out of rooms.

Without consequences, teachers will not write up students.  All we do is talk and have more meetings with staff and get nowhere, except more complaining, and then 45 minutes later, we are at the same place.  Then we have meetings with students and say the same thing we've said for the past 3 years.

It could be helpful to hold grade level meetings to review and address expectations for hallways, cafeteria, etc.

Create a high/low priority question on the referral form.  This would help prioritize items teachers are writing for a "paper trail" versus behaviors that need to be addressed with urgency.

Is there a way for Ben to change a setting in schooltool so that teachers can do write ups for documentation purposes so that Sarah can see this once a formal referral is made?
If not, can we have a school-wide document that she can so she is up to date on contact/interventions of behavior?
This would avoid any miscommunications and allow her to create the appropriate consequence and have productive convo with families/students.
