Discipline Procedures
The Westwood Board of Trustees leaves discipline up to the Headmaster’s discretion. Various methods of discipline are used at Westwood, not excluding corporal punishment. Each teacher maintains an assertive discipline plan that includes rules and consequences. The Headmaster and/or the teacher discipline committee handle all severe disruptions.
Discipline records are cumulative per semester. After a child receives 3 major discipline referrals, that student will be placed on a behavioral contract between the student and the school. The terms of this contract are at the discretion of the Headmaster.
If a student is suspended from school, he/she is not allowed on campus during school or after school for any extra curricular activity.
