Student Rights & Responsibilities

District 6 expects all students to behave appropriately for an educational environment and follow school rules.  All schools are expected to establish behavior guidelines as defined in the school’s positive behavior intervention and support (PBIS) plan. 

Any behavior which disrupts the learning environment, and/or is detrimental to the safety and welfare of other students or staff is subject to disciplinary action. The principal or designee may apply disciplinary consequences including suspension or a recommendation for expulsion for any student who engages in one or more of the following activities while in school buildings, on district property, when being transported in vehicles dispatched by the district or one of its schools, during a school-sponsored or district-sponsored activity or event and off school property when the conduct has a reasonable connection to school or any district curricular or non-curricular event.

Colorado laws, district and school policies and regulations pertaining to student conduct, discipline, rights and responsibilities shall be made known to students, who shall in turn be held accountable for complying with them. Parents are expected to cooperate with school authorities and to participate in school conferences regarding the behavior of their children.

Student Conduct

It is the intention of the Board of Education that the district's schools help students achieve maximum development of individual knowledge, skills and competence and that they learn behavior patterns which will enable them to be responsible, contributing members of society.

The Board, in accordance with applicable law, has adopted a written student conduct and discipline code based upon the principle that every student is expected to follow accepted rules of conduct and to show respect for and to obey persons in authority. The code emphasizes that certain behavior, especially behavior that disrupts the classroom, is unacceptable and may result in disciplinary action. The code shall be enforced uniformly, fairly and consistently for all students.

All Board-adopted policies and Board-approved regulations containing the letters “JIC” in the file name constitute the conduct section of the legally required code.

Students are expected to be familiar and comply with all expectations identified Board policies and regulations containing the letters “JIC” in the file name constituting the conduct section of the legally-required code. These policies provide information regarding district procedures for suspension (short and long term), expulsion and denial of admission. Student conduct policies are available to all parents and students on the District’s website or by request through the administrative office at each school.

For more information, please refer to Board policies JIC (Student Conduct) and all JIC subcodes or regulations pertaining to student conduct, GBGB (Staff Personal Security and Safety), and JK (Student Discipline).

Student Conduct

Student Discipline

The Board believes that effective student discipline is a prerequisite for sound educational practice and productive learning. The objectives of disciplining any student must be to help the student develop a positive attitude toward self-discipline and socially acceptable behavior. All policies and procedures for handling student discipline problems shall be designed to achieve these broad objectives.

The Board in accordance with applicable law has adopted a written student conduct and discipline code based upon the principle that every student is expected to follow accepted rules of conduct and to show respect for and to obey persons in authority. The code also emphasizes that certain behavior, especially behavior that dis­rupts the classroom, is unacceptable and may result in disciplinary action. The code shall be enforced uniformly, fairly and consistently for all students.

All Board-adopted policies and Board-approved regulations containing the letters “JK” in the file name constitute the discipline section of the legally required code.

Grading Assessment Systems

The Board believes that students and teachers should have access to tools and strategies that will support student learning. The district seeks, therefore, in its instructional program to make achievement both recognizable and possible for students. It emphasizes achievement in its processes of evaluating student performance.
