Language<br />

Students are expected to use appropriate language in all settings.<br />

Inappropriate language will be confronted and may result in detention time being<br />

issued, suspension, or police referral.<br />

Lunchroom Policy<br />

Lunchroom problems will be handled in the following manner:<br />

First Offense: One hour detention or one day out.<br />

Second Offense: One to three days out and detention.<br />

Third Offense: Lunchroom privileges lost for remainder of semester.<br />

Public Displays of Affection<br />

Activities that distract from a positive educational atmosphere are not<br />

allowed. An excellent guideline to use is the "one hand one arm" rule. This<br />

allows the holding of hands and walking arm-in-arm, but disallows full<br />

embraces, kissing and hands on the body. As with inappropriate conduct of any<br />

sort, inappropriate displays of affection will be confronted and may result in<br />

detention time or parent conference.<br />

Respect Toward Staff<br />

Students who display disrespect toward <strong>Plymouth</strong> High <strong>School</strong> staff<br />

(e.g., bus drivers, secretaries, custodians, etc.) will receive detention time,<br />

suspension, or referral to the <strong>Plymouth</strong> Police Department depending upon the<br />

severity of the act.<br />

Student Dress<br />

Proper dress is the responsibility of students and their parents. The school<br />

also has a responsibility to establish dress standards that promote a positive and<br />

proper learning environment. Rules pertaining to appropriate student attire are<br />

necessary in order to maintain good decorum and a favorable academic<br />

atmosphere. Students are advised to dress for respect.<br />

Clothing that is deemed distracting or disruptive to learning is<br />

inappropriate for school<br />
