Conduct & Discipline

Behavioral Expectations All Webb School students are expected to respect their classmates and the mission of Webb School. Students will be challenged daily to understand their responsibilities as citizens in a community. Violations of these expectations and responsibilities have consequences, ranging from communication with a teacher or Dean of Students to suspension/expulsion from Webb. The administrative response may include the following: • Official notice of misbehavior or violation of school rule • A conversation with the Dean of Students and/or Middle School Head • Message/call to parents • Social restriction • Detention • Conference with parents • Suspensions of privileges to attend classes • Recommendation for expulsion from Webb NOTE: If students believe they have been reprimanded unfairly, they should appeal as soon as possible. Students may appeal in a polite letter or in a meeting with the Dean of Students. The advisor may serve as a student’s advocate. The school expressly reserves the right to expel, permanently, any student at any time at the discretion of the school, and to require forfeiture of tuition and fees in connection with any expulsion. As noted in the overview, all members of the community are expected to share the sincere purpose of the school and to act individually to support the goals of the school. Inappropriate behavior by parents or guests of a student may result in disciplinary action, including the administrative responses set forth above.

OFFICIAL NOTICE Students may receive an official notice for minor violations of school rules (e.g., chewing gum) or the dress code. When students receive five (5) such notices, an appropriate disciplinary action will be taken. Notices continue to accumulate throughout each semester. 20 • WEBB MIDDLE SCHOOL HANDBOOK 2022-2023
