DISCIPLINE POLICY

Discipline Policy

The goal of good discipline is to help children build their own self-control. Our staff will guide and reinforce good behavior and use intervention assistance and redirection to help children achieve self-control and self-direction.

• Teachers/ staff will observe them doing well and praise them, accordingly.
• Set children up to succeed.
• Encourage children’s active involvement.
• Speak to children using positive words.
• Accept, respect and utilize children’s ideas.
• Listen with interest and respect.
• Be fair.

Should positive redirection fail to change behavior, time-out will be given in one minute increments for each year of the child’s age. Time-outs will not exceed four minutes.
Parents will be made aware of continuous misbehavior. At no time will physical punishment be used.
