Please print, sign and return to the Religious School office. All students in a household may sign on the same form. Registration is NOT complete until this form is signed and received by the Religious School office.

Rules:
1. Students will be on their best behavior at all times, apply themselves to the best of their abilities, be prompt to class and complete assigned work in a timely manner. Students must remain in designated supervised areas on Temple grounds. 2. Students will follow the directions of the person in charge at all times. 3. Students will care for their books, materials and school and personal property. Any damage done will be the financial responsibility of the family. Parents must pay this cost before re-enrollment or bar/bat mitzvah. 4. Fighting, foul language or violent acts will not be tolerated. 5. The school does not tolerate the use or possession of weapons or drugs, other than those drugs prescribed by a physician, which must be held in the Religious School office. If a student is in possession of drugs, alcohol, cigarettes, or weapons, the result is an immediate suspension from the school program. Readmission may occur only under conditions outlined by the Director of Religious School and rabbinic staff. Bar/bat mitzvah privileges may also be revoked. This policy is one of strict compliance. No exceptions will be made. 6. In addition to these rules, students and families must adhere to the guidelines outlined in the Religious School Family Handbook.

Consequences:
Behavioral problems are detrimental to the learning environment. Every effort will be made to resolve the situation in the classroom. Teachers will establish basic classroom behavior standards. If a child continues to have behavioral problems and must be sent out of class, the following will occur: 1. The student will be spoken with and returned to class at the discretion of the Director of Religious School. 2. The student will be spoken with; the Director of Religious School will discuss the situation with his/her parents, and a written summary will be included in the students cumulative file. 3. The student will be spoken with, and a conference will be scheduled with the parents in an attempt to resolve the situation before the student is allowed to return to class. 4. The student will be suspended and will not be allowed to return to class until a second conference takes place. At this point, the Director of Religious School has the authority to decide when, and if, the student will return to class. 5. The student may be expelled for the remainder of the school year by the decision of a committee, consisting of the Director of Religious School, the Rabbi and the Chair or representative of the Religious School Committee.
