Code of Conduct

We believe that a supportive and respectful environment allows students to thrive. Families agree to our Code of Conduct upon enrollment, and students play an active role in shaping our shared values through a thoughtful student-led social contract. Together, these tools reflect our collective commitment to respect, kindness, and responsibility.

We expect students to:

• Have kind and thoughtful behavior (physical aggression, foul language, or bullying will not be tolerated).

• Be respectful and follow the directions of the person in charge.

• Show up ready to learn—this means bringing their backpacks and supplies each day.

• Participate and do their personal best.

• Use electronic devices responsibly—phones and watches may be brought for communication with parents or guardians, but they should remain unused for other purposes during the day.

• Remain in designated supervised areas on the property.

To support this Code of Conduct, our Disciplinary Action Plan is designed to provide structure, encourage accountability, and offer guidance when challenges arise. This is about creating a safe, nurturing environment where students can learn and grow. Of course, not every mistake requires formal action, as outlined in the plan—mistakes are a natural part of learning and growing—and co-op is a great place to learn how to navigate those moments!
