CHESTERFIELD-RUBY MIDDLE SCHOOL 

POLICIES

Tardiness

Students are expected to be prompt.  Tardiness to class will result in an assignment to lunch detention.  Chronic tardiness will result in a discipline referral to school administration.

Attendance

Homeroom teachers will notify the principal's office of any student confined in a hospital, giving the name of the hospital and room number, if known.  A visit to the student while in the hospital would also be in keeping with good public relations as would a visit to anyone confined with a prolonged illness.

Student Dress Code

1. Neatness and cleanliness are expected of students at all times.
2. Clothing items must fit properly. Excessively small-fitting or large fitting clothing items are not
permitted.
3. No midriff tops, halter tops, revealing sundresses, tube tops, tank shirts or clothing that excessively

2.  Homework guidelines will be presented to students at the beginning of the school year.

3.  Teachers should keep in mind that students have four other courses.  Weekend homework should be kept to a minimum.
