South Park Middle School DISCIPLINE MANAGEMENT POLICY 2016 - 2017 At South Park Middle School, we believe ALL students, staff, parents, and community deserve a safe, well-ordered, and positive school environment. Together, we can promote student learning by setting clear expectations, developing supportive relationships, and consistently implementing rules. Inappropriate behavior, profanity, or bullying will NOT be tolerated. South Park expects students to make informed, positive choices that meet behavioral expectations. Student infractions will be classified as either standard or severe. Everyone will own responsibility for our safe, secure campus by following disciplinary guidelines and always showing our KNIGHT PRIDE.
