Rules and Policy Reminders, 2/24/21

 

Divine Savior Holy Angels strives to provide a safe, secure, and respectful learning environment for all students on campus, as well as during school-sponsored events and activities.

Bullying/hazing/harassment has a harmful social, physical, psychological, and academic impact on bullies, victims, and bystanders. As a Catholic school, this type of behavior does not align well with the gospel message to treat others with dignity and respect in an environment that fosters an awareness of a loving God. Therefore, DSHA consistently and vigorously addresses bullying/hazing/harassment so that there is no disruption to the learning environment and learning process. Behavior such as bullying, gossiping, ridicule, foul or scandalous language, and lying are contrary to everything DSHA stands for, and strike at the heart of the common good. As serious offenses occur, they will be dealt with accordingly and may result in disciplinary action.

Students should report any incidents of bullying or harassment toward themselves or others to Mrs. Brock or another adult. Bullying and harassment, both in person and through virtual means, toward any member of our school community, even toward those we are upset with, are prohibited by our policies.

 

 

DSHA has a uniform policy for many reasons. Research has shown that improved attendance and academic achievement are associated with school uniforms.

Any student out of uniform will receive a demerit which will accumulate throughout the year toward a detention (3 demerits = 1 detention).

DSHA gives students access to technology to support the mission of learning, research, and spiritual development with relevant and consistent resources at all levels. Any use of our IT resources for purposes other than outlined in our IT Resource Use Policy is a violation of our policy.

ATTENDANCE POLICIES: pgs. 33-34

 

DSHA has clear attendance policies that address unexcused absences and tardy matters. These relate to all aspects of the school day from 7:50 a.m. until 3 p.m. Additionally, DSHA does not have an open campus. Consequences for these violations vary based on the circumstance.
