LIVE OAK CHARTER SCHOOL

Live Oak Charter School Multi-purpose room

October 19, 2016

Mission & Program

To ensure the humanity and potential of its students through an education resonant with their unfolding

awareness and capacities, and supportive of the full and integrated development of body, heart, and

mind. LOCS provides a K-8 program inspired by Waldorf education to children and families of

Petaluma and surrounding communities. Waldorf inspired education is a developmental approach to

learning that cultivates the innate capacities of each child through age appropriate curriculum. Live

Oak educates the whole child – head, heart, and hands, through an education that integrates each

child’s creative, intellectual, emotional, physical and social domains. Live Oak oﬀers an interdisciplinary

liberal arts program where art, music, and movement are integrated with core academic instruction.

Exploration of the natural world, human culture, language and mathematics enlivens curiosity which is

the foundation of intellectual growth, conceptual flexibility, empathy and sense of connectedness.

participation of our students in creating this positive environment is essential. When students

behave appropriately all students benefit. When a student misbehaves, many students suffer.

Students are expected to pay attention to their lessons, following instructions promptly,

cooperate with their peers, be ready for school, keeping to appropriate noise level, and show

respect for peers, adults, and property.

Individual teachers will have variations of common classroom rules. Teachers discuss their

expectations with students throughout the year. Students are also engaged in ongoing social

support in class circles and assemblies that discuss behavior issues that are occurring in the

classroom and on campus. All staff work together to hold our campus rules with consistency

and positive support strategies to assist students in their behavior.

Staff may not directly observe some conflicts or transgressions. In such cases, it is important

that when an incident or concern comes to the attention of adults, that it be reported to the

child’s class teacher or the office. If persisting conflicts are not reported and appropriately

handled, students lose trust in the ability of the adults around them to keep them safe.

POSITIVE SUPPORT

Children respond best to clear and firm expectations and respectful and just responses to

transgressions. When incidents occur, consequences are chosen to provide a natural response

outcome to the problem, and offer the opportunity for the student to recover from the mistake.

The focus for the support is addressing the issue as directly as possible, and measuring the

response to fit compassionately with the corrective needs of the situation and the ability of the

child to process the situation.

CONFERENCING WITH STUDENTS

When investigating and exploring discipline incidents, Live Oak staff uses the following

questions to help guide an exploration of the situation with the involved students.

Five Guiding Questions for Resolution:

■

From your perspective, tell what happened.

■

What are your thoughts about it now?

■

How have you and others been affected?

■

What feelings or needs are still with you?

■

What would you like to happen next?

(18)

response depending on the intensity and frequency of the behavior. Individual circumstances

may require alterations to disciplinary responses to meet unique needs of different children. In

all cases, consequences are crafted to be congruent to the nature of the specific incident and the

needs of the specific student to midwife a healthy change in behavior.

The most basic intervention is a redirection by staff. Staff may offer suggestions to students to

try a different approach or behavior in a situation. If the behavior persists or is acute, the

student may be warned or given a response card below. The response cards outline a

progressive level of intervention in response to behavior incidents.

RESPONSE CARDS

When common redirection by a staff person is not successful, Live Oak teachers and students

use a card system for office notification and for requesting assistance for behavior concerns.

Yellow Card

■

Assigned by teacher as a formal warning.

■

Consequence may include time out, service to the community, or loss of recess time.

■

Office is notified but direct intervention by office is not requested.

Red Card

■

Usually assigned as a referral for repeated or acute infractions.

■

Direct intervention by the office is requested.

■

Staff will investigate the situation and determine the nature of the incident.

■

Interventions will be assigned according to the nature of the incident.

MINOR INFRACTIONS

For infrequent and less acute behaviors, staff will use measured interventions to dissuade

repeat incidents and offer an opportunity for the student to recover. For exceeding disruptive,

repeated or negative incidents the interventions may be increased in duration or gravity. For

example, timeouts may be lengthened, or a classroom timeout may instead be held in the office.

A conference may also be held with parent and the child to discuss incidents and behaviors as

they occur. Interventions for minor infractions may include:

■

Warning

■

Conference

■

Restriction from the area or activity, loss of recess time

■

Confiscation of a restricted item to be returned to a parent

■

Campus clean-up

(19)

persistent misbehavior suggests a student may need a more comprehensive endeavor to

understand the functions of the behavior and explore individualized supports that may have

greater chances for successful redirection. A behavior plan is often developed to serve this

need. The plan describes the nature of the target behavior and outlines the responses that may

be used to redirect and deter the student from repeated offenses. Continued misbehavior may

lead to an escalation of consequences including suspension from school. Interventions for

Persistent Infractions may include:

■

Parent-Teacher-Administrator Conference

■

Behavior Plan

■

Suspension

ACUTE INFRACTIONS

At times, a student may engage in inappropriate behaviors that endanger the physical or

emotional well being of other students, significantly disrupt or degrade the learning

environment, and violate education or criminal code. In the event of singular but significant

violations of education code and conduct, a student may be suspended for up to five days.

Education Code 48900 and 48915 outline behaviors that may be grounds for suspension or

expulsion, these include:

■

Fighting or harming others.

■

Threatening to fight or harm others.

■

Causing injury.

■

Harassment.

■

Possession or being under the

influence of a controlled substance.

■

Possession of a real or simulated

weapon.

■

Disruption of school activities or

defiance of authority of the school.

■

Damage to property.

(20)

expel rests with the Board of Directors through a formal hearing, upon the recommendation of

the Executive Director.

CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES

The use of tobacco, drugs and alcohol is prohibited on school grounds or while participating in

school-sponsored activities, whether they are occur on or off campus. The possession,

The Board of Live Oak Charter School recognizes the harmful effects of bullying on student

learning and school attendance and desires to provide safe school environments that protect

students from physical and emotional harm. Live Oak employees shall establish student safety

as a high priority and shall not tolerate bullying of any student.

No individual or group shall, through physical, written, verbal, or other means, harass, sexually

harass, threaten, intimidate, retaliate, cyberbully, cause bodily injury to, or commit hate

violence against any student or school personnel.

Cyberbullying includes the creation or transmission of harassing communications, direct

threats, or other harmful texts, sounds, or images on the Internet, social media, or other

technologies using a telephone, computer, or any wireless communication device.

Cyberbullying also includes breaking into another person's electronic account and assuming

that person's identity in order to damage that person's reputation.

Strategies for addressing bullying in Live Oak shall be developed with involvement of key

stakeholders, including students, parents/guardians, and staff. As appropriate, the Executive

Director or designee may collaborate with law enforcement, courts, social services, mental

health services, other agencies, and community organizations in the development and

implementation of joint strategies to promote safety in schools and the community and to

provide services for alleged victims and perpetrators of bullying.

Bullying Prevention

To the extent possible, Live Oak Charter shall focus on the prevention of bullying by

establishing clear rules for student conduct and implementing strategies to promote a positive,

collaborative school climate. Students shall be informed, through student handbooks and other

appropriate means, of Live Oak and school rules related to bullying, mechanisms available for

reporting incidents or threats, and the consequences for engaging in bullying.

As appropriate, Live Oak shall provide students with instruction, in the classroom or other

educational settings, that promotes effective communication and conflict resolution skills, social

skills, character/values education, respect for cultural and individual differences, self-esteem

development, assertiveness skills, and appropriate online behavior.

Staff shall receive related professional development, including information about early warning

signs of harassing/intimidating behaviors and effective response.

Based on an assessment of bullying incidents at school, the Executive Director or designee may

increase supervision and security in areas where bullying most often occurs, such as

classrooms, playgrounds, hallways, restrooms, and cafeterias.

Intervention

Students are encouraged to notify school staff when they are being bullied or suspect that

another student is being victimized. In addition, the Executive Director or designee shall

develop means for students to report threats or incidents confidentially and anonymously.

School staff who witness an act of bullying shall immediately intervene to stop the incident

when it is safe to do so.

(22)

BP

affected by an act of bullying to a school counselor, school psychologist, social worker, child

welfare attendance personnel, school nurse, or other school support service personnel for case

management, counseling, and/or participation in a restorative justice program as appropriate.

Complaints and Investigation

Any complaint of bullying, whether it is discriminatory or nondiscriminatory, shall be

investigated and resolved in accordance with law and Live Oak's uniform complaint

procedures specified in Uniform Complaint Procedures.

Any student, parent/guardian, or other individual who believes that a student has been

subjected to bullying or who has witnessed bullying may report the incident to a teacher, the

Executive Director or designee, or any other available school employee. Within one business

day of receiving such a report, a staff member shall notify the Executive Director or designee of

the report, whether or not a uniform complaint is filed. In addition, any school employee who

observes an incident of bullying involving a student shall, within one business day, report

his/her observation to the Executive Director or designee, whether or not the alleged victim

files a complaint.

When the circumstances involve cyberbullying, individuals with information about the activity

shall be encouraged to save and print any electronic or digital messages that they feel constitute

cyberbullying and to notify a teacher, the Executive Director or designee, or other employee so

that the matter may be investigated. When a student uses a social networking site or service to

bully or harass another student, the Executive Director or designee may file a request with the

networking site or service to suspend the privileges of the student and to have the material

removed.

When a report of bullying is submitted, the Executive Director shall inform the student or

parent/guardian of the right to file a formal written complaint. The student who is the alleged

victim of the bullying shall be given an opportunity to describe the incident, identify witnesses

who may have relevant information, and provide other evidence of bullying.

Corrective Actions

Corrective actions for a student who commits an act of bullying of any type may include

counseling, behavioral intervention and education, and, if the behavior is severe or pervasive as

defined in Education Code 48900, may result in disciplinary action including suspension or

expulsion in accordance with Live Oak policies and regulations.

BP

The Board of Directors of Live Oak Charter School believes that all students have the right to be

educated in a positive learning environment free from disruptions. On school grounds and at

school activities, while going to or coming from school, and while on school transportation,

students shall be expected to exhibit appropriate conduct that does not infringe upon the rights

of others or interfere with the school program.

The Executive Director or designee shall ensure that the school develops standards of conduct

and discipline consistent with Live Oak Charter School policies and administrative regulations.

Behavior is considered appropriate when students are diligent in study, careful with school

property, courteous and respectful towards their teachers, other staff, students and volunteers.

Prohibited student conduct includes but is not limited to:

1. Behavior that endangers staff, students, or others

2. Behavior that disrupts the orderly classroom or school environment

3. Harassment of students or staff, including bullying, intimidation, "cyberbullying,"

hazing or initiation activity, ridicule, extortion or any other verbal, written or physical

conduct that causes or threatens to cause bodily harm or emotional suffering

(Cyberbullying includes the transmission of communications, posting of harassing

messages, direct threats, social cruelty, or other harmful texts, sounds or images on the

Internet, social networking sites, or other digital technologies using a telephone,

computer, or any wireless communication device. Cyberbullying also includes breaking

into another person's account and assuming that person's identity in order to damage

that person's reputation or friendships.)

4. Damage to or theft of property belonging to the school, staff or students

5. Profane, vulgar or abusive language

6. Plagiarism or dishonesty in school work or on tests

7. Inappropriate dress

8. Tardiness and unexcused absence from school

9. Failure to remain on school premises in accordance with school rules

10. Possession, use, or being under the influence of tobacco, alcohol, or other prohibited

drug in violation of school rules

Employees are expected to provide appropriate supervision to enforce standards of conduct

and, if they observe or receive a report of a violation of these standards, to immediately

intervene or call for assistance. If an employee believes a matter has not been resolved, he/she

shall refer the matter to the Executive Director or Board of Directors for further investigation.

Students who violate school rules and regulations may be subject to discipline, including but

not limited to suspension, expulsion or transfer to alternative programs, or denial of

participation in extracurricular or co-curricular activities in accordance with Board policy and

administrative regulation, and contact with local law enforcement as appropriate.
