Policies/Procedures » School Rules and Discipline Policy

The attitudes established by children during their elementary grades serve as the foundation on which they build future academic achievements.  Our schoolwide discipline policy is a uniform, assertive discipline plan whose primary purpose is to reinforce and reward positive behaviors as well as consistently enforce consequences for inappropriate behavior.

WE AT LOMA PORTAL BELIEVE:
TEACHERS HAVE A RIGHT TO TEACH!
STUDENTS HAVE A RIGHT TO LEARN!
STUDENTS AND TEACHERS HAVE THE RIGHT
TO BE SAFE AT ALL TIMES!

Please read this section with your child to ensure behavior standards are consistently understood schoolwide.  Sign and return the tear-off below indicating your commitment to meet these behavior standards.  Loma Portal’s vision is to “make a positive difference in the life of every child!”  Parent help and cooperation will ensure that our vision becomes a reality.
