A View of Last Years Discipline. Classroom Disruptions by Grade:

2013-14 Discipline Data:

Questions to Ponder:

1. Why are 9th & 10th graders referred more than older students?

2. What do older students do in class to avoid getting into trouble?

What Can We Learn From This?

- Classroom Discipline Referrals account for the bulk of referrals at BCHS

- Freshmen and Sophomores are referred much more often than older students.

Is it Maturity?

Do the few, younger students, who receive most of the referrals

disappear before 11th Grade? • Alternative School Placement• Dropped for Lack of Attendance• Drop out for lack of Academic Success

The Answer is Yes to both: Maturity and the disappearance of those with the

most referrals.

- Maturity is a choice not an age requirement- You can learn to become an engaged and

successful learner.

Remember
