Section 5000 – Human Resources Appendix C-1 APPENDIX TO SECTION 5000 APPENDIX C ACCEPTED ALTERNATIVES TO CORPORAL PUNISHMENT Accepted alternatives to corporal punishment are: • Involve students in the development of positively stated classroom rules, which relate to clear educational purposes. Submit these rules to the building Principal for approval. • Involve students in the development of consequences for misconduct. • Post a list of rules in a conspicuous area of the classroom in order to make students aware of appropriate behavior and the teacher’s expectations. • Send a letter containing classroom rules to parents/guardians. Request that they sign the letter and return it to school for confirmation. • When students act in accordance with classroom rules, provide positive recognition and implement consequences when a student’s behavior is disruptive. • Since consequences lose effectiveness when they are too punitive, implement consequences with patience and avoid punishing every infraction. • Enforce rules in a pleasant, firm manner, with neither sternness nor anger. • Use rewards frequently, but intermittently, so that students will be positively reinforced without expecting a reward each time they behave well. • Teach appropriate language for youngsters to express their feelings. • Implement modalities on behavior management such as assertive discipline, behavior modification, etc. • Help youngsters see cause and effect relationships between inappropriate behavior and the need to respect rights of others as per the Michigan Health Model. • Implement rights and responsibilities fairly and consistently. • Establish classroom privileges. • When students misbehave, classroom privileges may be denied. • Avoid disrupting the class when implementing consequences for student misconduct and select private moments to advise a student about his/her punishment. • Follow the building’s procedures for dealing with disruptive students relative to referring these students to the office for due process or to another appropriate place.

Section 5000 – Human Resources Appendix C-2 • Establish before, during and after school detention when feasible. • Use a time-out area or space in the classroom for young students. • Confer with parents (e.g., by telephone, written communication, conferences, etc.) relative to a youngster’s general pattern of inappropriate behavior. • Hold conferences with parent(s) and student(s) when the youngster’s misconduct is disruptive. • Follow through with instructions from the Principal relative to the Student Code of Conduct. <strong>Public</strong> Act 521 and the District’s Alternatives to Corporal Punishment. • Remember to incorporate discipline rather than simply to impose penalties for misconduct. Teach appropriate student conduct. SCHOOL DISTRICT OF THE CITY OF SAGINAW
