As members of the Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board (HWDSB) community, each of us has a responsibility to contribute to a positive school climate that is inclusive and accepting of all students and staff and that promotes the prevention of bullying and harassment. the HWDSB Code of Conduct Policy sets out the expectations for behavior consistent with the Provincial Code of Conduct.
As a student at HWDSB, to show respect and responsibility to myself and others I will:
- Come to school prepared, on time, and ready to learn
- Treat one another and those in authority with dignity and respect all the times, even with there is a disagreement
- Refrain from bringing anything to school that may compromise the safety of myself or others
- Demonstrate responsibility for actions or behavior on or off school property or outside of the school day that would have an impact on the school climate
- Follow the established rules and expectations and take responsibility for my own actions
- Promote the safety of people in schools by preventing bullying and using non-violent ways to resolve conflict
- Demonstrate appropriate participation in the civic life (physical and digital) of the community
