IN-SCHOOL SUSPENSION (ISS)

Students may be assigned to In-School Suspension for previously stated school rules violations. Students who are assigned to ISS may still participate in and/or spectate extracurricular activities.

ISS will be on Tuesday’s and Friday’s

The ISS Instructor:

• shall be in charge of promoting the intense and rigorous demands of structure during the student's assigned time in ISS.

• is in charge of attendance

• will monitor student work

• will expect completion of assigned work load from their classroom teachers

• will ask students to complete ACT prep work if they do not have enough work,

Students:

• are not allowed to have cell phones the entire day.

• Phones will be collected at the beginning of the day.

• Being caught with a phone in ISS will be the same as a student refusing to turn a phone in, and they will be assigned OSS (Out-of-School Suspension).

• will adhere to all expectations of ISS and be respectful to the instructor.

• Failure to comply will result in Out-of-School Suspension. When they return they will complete their assigned stay in ISS.

• who are absent on their assigned day or leave school on the assigned day will be required to make up all time (to the minute) in ISS.

• Classwork assigned in ISS counts in the same manner and weight for the assigned classroom teacher.

• will be given other work to complete if they do not have enough work. They will NOT be allowed to watch videos of any kind in ISS.

• Can take tests in ISS on the same day tests are administered in the regular classroom, and these arrangements can be negotiated by the administration, the ISS teacher, and the regularly assigned teacher.

• DO NOT choose their placement either in ISS or OSS.
