Defined Examples of Expected Behaviour at M.E. LaZerte High School 

Academic Honesty Responsibilities & Expectations: 

Academic Integrity is honest and responsible academic behavior. Students are expected to 

submit original work, acknowledge sources, and conduct themselves ethically in the 

completion of assessments and examinations. If a student has displayed academic 

dishonesty, one or more of the following consequences may result: 

● parent involvement;

understanding of the seriousness and impact of academic dishonesty;

Alberta High School Requirements - The Why for Students 

Students are responsible to take the sequence and combination of courses for a high school 

diploma, but know that counsellors and administrators are here to help with this process. 

To obtain a high school diploma in Alberta, a student must acquire: 

● minimum 100 credits; 

● English 30-1 or 30-2; 

● Social Studies 30-1 or 30-2; 

● Physical Education 10; 

● Career and Life Management (CALM ); 

● 10 or more credits in Math (at least Math 20-1, 20-2, or 20-3); 

11 |40

● 10 or more credits in Science; 

● 10 or more credits in Career and Technology Studies, Fine Arts, International 

Languages, or Physical Education 20/30; and 

● 10 or more credits in any 30 level course(s) in addition to English and Social Studies. 

Assessment and Exam Responsibilities & Expectations: 

Students are expected to be in class when assessments have been scheduled. In the event 

of excused absences, it is the responsibility of the student to arrange with the teacher an 

alternate time to complete an assessment. Our staff aims to be fair and flexible with missed 

assessments. Student learning will be negatively impacted if students demonstrate a pattern 

of missing scheduled assessments and if students do not take responsibility for completing 

missed assessments. In some cases, students may demonstrate a pattern of missing 

summative assessments that could indicate learning concerns or other involved factors. 

There will be communication with parents and the student may be referred to counselling 

and/or administration for follow up. 

Students should talk to school counsellors, teachers, school administration, friends and/or 

parents to get the academic support they need, and should not take part in academic 

dishonesty. Students should use MEL Time and tutoring for academic support 

opportunities. 

Diploma Exams Responsibilities and Expectations: 

Schedules for exams are placed in a variety of locations including on School Zone, via the 

weekly parent email, in the main office, in the Voyageur News, on the website 

( www.melazerte.com ), and are also posted throughout the school. Personalized exam 

schedules for each student are also posted in the ‘Student Profile’ section of School Zone. 

All students are now required to sign-up for myPass and will be able to access a host of 

information. Click mypass.alberta.ca to create a profile. 

● Diploma Exams: 

Alberta Education states the following about diploma exams: Students are expected 

to comply with the Diploma Examination Rules. Students who interfere with the 

12 |40

security of examinations falsify examination results; disrupt other students or 

commit any other act that misrepresents their achievement may: 

○ be evicted from the examination room; 

○ have their diploma examination(s) invalidated; 

○ be barred from writing any other Alberta Education diploma examination for 

a period not exceeding one year; 

○ have their official transcripts withheld for a period not exceeding one year; 

and 

○ have their official transcripts annotated (which means permanent notes show 

up on transcript). 

● Diploma Rewrites: 

○ Students who are retaking courses will not be automatically registered for the 

Diploma exam. Students may register themselves for diploma exams online 

using myPass at mypass.alberta.ca or by paper using the Diploma 

Examination Registration/rewrite Fee Payment Form. Students must contact 

the intended writing center to request permission to write before 

self-registering Click here for the Payment Form. 

○ The Grade 12 Diploma examination schedule is set by Alberta Education and 

can be found on their website at https://education.alberta.ca . 

Attendance/Late Responsibilities and Expectations at M.E. LaZerte: 

● Attending each class every day on time is one of the most important contributing 

factors to student learning & success; 

● Responsibility for attendance comes from students and parents. All absences must 

be reported to the main office, by a parent phone call or signed parent note, within 7 

calendar days of the absence. Medical documentation is required for ongoing 

absenteeism due to health concerns lasting more than 3 consecutive days; 

● Students that need to leave the school during class time due to illness or to attend an 

appointment must sign out through the main office for safety reasons. Office staff 

will need to speak with a parent/guardian by phone before the student can sign out; 

● All unexcused absences from class will be recorded and will be reported to the home 

on a daily basis by an automated phone reporting system or by teachers; 

13 |40

● Students are responsible to sign the late book located in every classroom when 

coming late to class. 

● Students should not to be walking into class late with food or beverages; 

● 90% attendance and lates is required for all students to take part in school activities 

(e.g. Taste of LaZerte, Grad & Commencement, tournaments, school celebrations); 


● A combination of more than three lates and/or absences is a cause for concern and 

it is important for students and parents and school staff to learn more about this 

emerging pattern. Interventions may occur to assist in establishing a more positive 

trend. 

Students are responsible for all course material missed while absent for any reason . 

Medical and dental appointments should be made outside of school time if possible. If a 

student will be absent due to illness or to attend an appointment, students must sign out 

through the main office. The office staff will need to speak with a parent or guardian by 

phone before the student can sign out. 

M.E. LaZerte does not permit early dismissal for summer holidays. Missed instruction and 

assessments could seriously jeopardize students’ success. Parents are requested not to 

schedule holidays or pull students out of school prior to, or during instructional time and 

major exam periods. Absenteeism will be addressed through communication between 

teacher, student, parent and administration. Excessive unexcused absences may result in 

withdrawal from classes. 

14 |40

Daily summaries of student attendance are available on SchoolZone and upon request by 

phoning the school. Students are responsible for all course material missed while absent 

for any reason. Medical and dental appointments should be made outside of school time, if 

possible. Parents should not allow students to miss school prior to or during major exam 

periods or for any extended periods of time. Absenteeism will be addressed through 

communication between teacher, student, parent and administration. M.E. LaZerte does 

not support early dismissal for summer holidays. Missed instruction, exams and 

assignments can seriously jeopardize students’ success, and excessive unexcused absences 

may result in withdrawal from classes. 

Cell Phones & Electronic Devices Responsibilities and Expectations: 

Cell phones and other electronic devices, including earphones/earbuds should only be used 

in class under the direction of the teacher to support instruction. The following uses of 

technology do not contribute to learning and are therefore not permitted in classes: 

● sending or receiving text or instant messages; 

● checking voicemail; 

● making or receiving calls; 

● taking/sharing unauthorized pictures or video; and 

● checking what time it is. 

Cell phones are not to be used in the hallway during instructional time. Once the moving 

music starts playing to signal that classes are about to begin, students must turn off their 

cell phones and keep them out of sight. Students not complying with cell phone 

expectations must respectfully cooperate when any staff member asks them to hand over 

their phone. The phone will be brought to the office and the student must speak with an 

administrator at the end of the day to have the phone returned. Consequences may 

include: parent contact, a warning, detentions, turning the cell phone in at the office every 

day, loss of cell phone privileges and suspensions. 

15 |40

Clothing Responsibilities and Expectations: 

M.E. LaZerte Students are expected to dress respectfully. This means: 

● Students should remove headwear prior to entering the school (unless worn for 

religious reasons). This includes hats, hoods, bandanas, do-rags, etc.; 

● Clothing that is insulting/offensive/unsuitable for school wear is inappropriate. This 

may include graphics depicting or suggesting violence, profanity, pornography, 

alcohol, drugs, etc.; and 

● “Underwear” items should remain under cover in our learning environment. 

Students whose dress does not meet the requirements of our dress expectations will be 

asked to change into appropriate wear. 

Course Change Guidelines/Dropping a Course Responsibilities and Expectations: 

Our time-table is based on student choices provided during the spring pre-enrollment and 

classes are created based on requests. Because of this, few student timetable changes 

should be required (or can be accommodated). Students must make an appointment before 

the start of school or the start of second semester to do a course change. Students must 

bring a signed parent/guardian note with them to their appointment authorizing the course 

change; otherwise no changes can be made. Course changes need to be completed prior to 

the start of classes. 

16 |40

Please look at the course change guidelines we will be adhering to for the school year. A 

course change might be considered or possibly provided if: 

● a required course is needed for grad requirements (and has an open spot); 

● a student is failing a prerequisite course; 

● a student is not meeting the prerequisite minimum; and 

● a student has successfully completed the course (summer school). 

Course changes for second semester are not guaranteed or always possible because of 

enrolment limits in a class. Students may need to consider summer school or alternative 

educational opportunities. 

Course Mark Appeal Responsibilities and Expectations : 

If students feel that a course mark was arrived at unfairly or an error has been made, they 

may appeal the mark. 

● The appeal should be made first to the classroom teacher. If the student is still not 

satisfied with the outcome, he/she may then contact the department head. The 

department head will check the mark, discuss the concerns with the teacher and 

make sure that it is correct according to the records. Should the student still need 

clarification, he/she may then appeal to the designated assistant principal. 

Emergency Procedures Responsibilities and Expectations: 

Our student’s safety is of utmost importance to us. It is imperative that students do not 

use their cell phone during an “on alert”, evacuation or lockdown. Students are expected to 

follow the orderly conduct and rules given at the time of the procedure. It is also expected 

that students use one earbud (instead of both) everyday when in the school so emergency 

announcements can be heard. Parents will be notified by SchoolZone after a legitimate 

emergency procedure to receive a debrief of the incident. 

17 |40

Fees Responsibilities and Expectations: 

School fees should be paid on registration day. Parents are able to pay school fees online 

through SchoolZone. If families are unable to pay the full amount on registration day, they 

may set up a payment plan with the Accounts Department. Failure to pay fees may result in 

students not being able to participate in non-curricular activities such as sports teams and 

graduation/commencement. Students are responsible for the care of the textbooks that are 

signed out to them, and textbooks must be returned at the end of the course. Students will 

be responsible to pay for lost or damaged textbooks. 

Field Trips Responsibilities and Expectations: 

M.E. LaZerte recognizes field trips are valuable educational activities which enhance 

student learning and development. Throughout the school year, students will be invited to 

participate in field trips in order to enhance and complement course work through the use 

of facilities and sites outside of the school. Students are not allowed to drive themselves or 

other students to or from a field trip. Students are not allowed to leave a field trip without 

a combined teacher and parent’s permission. In order to inform parents of the goals of the 

trip, (as well as location, special provisions, safety requirements and potential costs) a field 

trip consent form will be sent home to the students involved. A parent or guardian 

signature will be required in order for the student to participate. If you have any questions 

regarding any aspects of field trips we would welcome your inquiries at 780.408.9800. 

Fitness Centre Responsibilities and Expectations: 

We have a top notch fitness centre that rivals many professional health workout businesses. 

Students have access to this centre for a nominal fee. If students are using the fitness centre 

during a spare (Grade 11 & 12 only can have spares) they must be in the facility by the start 

of the period, changed into fitness attire and must stay in the facility until the bell rings to 

end the period. 

18 |40

Food Service- Milton’s and The Canoe Responsibilities and Expectations: 

● Milton’s is one of the multi-purpose areas in our school and is used as both a 

teaching/learning area as well as place for individual/small study groups to complete 

work; 

● They are open for food services during the school day and our intent is to have 

healthy food choices at a reasonable cost. This can include fruit smoothies, veggies, 

salads, paninis, sandwiches, pasta, and hot food meals for $6 or less; 

● These facilities are a service to our students and respect is expected. Please be 

courteous - don’t buy for friends and don’t cut in line;

money to spend in the cafeteria); and 

● An ATM is located outside of Milton’s for student use. 

Fourth Year of High School Responsibilities and Expectations: 

Edmonton Public Schools may allow students, who meet the criteria, to attend their 

designated high school for a fourth year. At M.E. LaZerte, opportunities for a fourth year 

are very limited because of space but students still have the option to attend Centre High, 

Argyll, Outreach/Learning Stores and Metro Continuing Education. Students should meet 

with their counsellor if they want to explore this possibility. 

Friday Prayer Responsibilities and Expectations: 

We offer the opportunity for students to pray in community on Fridays during the lunch 

break. Students who participate in prayer are expected to attend all classes on time. 

19 |40

Graduation - Commencements Responsibilities and Expectations: 

To be eligible to participate in our school sponsored M.E. LaZerte Commencement, a 

Grade 12 student must: 

● have 90% attendance and punctuality (no more than 10% unexcused absences or 

10% unexcused lates). For commencement purposes the school will only count an 

absence or late as “excused” if parents/guardians report the reason to the main 

office within one week of the absence or late. Medical documentation may be requested 

for chronic absenteeism (even if excused). If parents/guardians see any discrepancies 

in attendance, (as communicated in SchoolZone and the automated phone system) 

they must notify the main office within one week of the date of the absence or late 

in order for it to be corrected;

important dates and relevant information about graduation and commencement. There are 

a maximum of three (3) guest tickets per graduating student that are available for purchase 

for commencement at the Jubilee Auditorium but unlimited tickets for purchase at the 

banquet (Shaw Conference Centre). 

Hallways Responsibilities and Expectations: 

At M.E. LaZerte High School we want students in class, on time with all necessary 

materials, and ready to learn. In order to encourage better traffic flow, students are not to 

gather on the ramp (it’s a no stopping zone) or along the atrium rails. Staff members will 

ask students to ‘walk & talk’ to ensure traffic flows well. Moving Music is 3 minutes prior 

to the bell and reminds students to be moving to class. It is the students’ responsibility to 

obtain a hall pass from their teacher if they need to leave a classroom. Any student who is 

20 |40

in the halls during class time must be in possession of a hall pass or they may receive a 

consequence. Students who have spares: 

● are not to be in hallways, stairwells, or the atrium; 

● can leave the school or go to Milton’s, the Library or Fitness Centre; and 

● can wait outside the front school doors during decent weather or in the front foyer 

outside the main office in cold weather so they do not disrupt in session classes. 

Information Access Responsibilities and Expectations: 

At M.E. LaZerte, we believe that students are most successful when students, parents, and 

staff work as a team, and parents will always be informed about student progress and 

issues. When a student turns 18, he/she is entitled to make a choice about whether or not 

the school continues to have contact with parents and/or guardians. At M.E. LaZerte 

High School, we will continue to have contact with parents and or guardians until a student 

completes their schooling with us. If a student turns 18 years of age during the school year 

and does not want us to have parents and/or guardians as our primary contact, it is the 

student’s responsibility to notify our office at that time. Together the student and 

administrator will contact parents to make them aware. 

Injuries & First Aid Responsibilities and Expectations: 

Your safety is our utmost concern, and many processes are in place to ensure student safety 

& wellness. Students must report any injuries immediately to the teacher in charge of an 

activity or to the main office. We have multiple people at the school who are first aid 

trained and our intent is to always make sure our students are cared for in a safe learning 

environment. A written report of any accident will be completed by the teacher or 

administrator and parents will be notified. 

Library Responsibilities and Expectations: 

The library is open from 8 am to 4 pm Monday to Friday. We encourage students to use 

our quiet space to do research, homework, assignments or to relax and read. We offer 

desktop computers, charging stations as well as a wide range of print resources. Check out

our large fiction collection, recreational reading supports and vocabulary development for 

successful learning. During class time, students must provide their school identification if 

they are on a spare or a hall pass if their teacher is giving them permission to work in the 

library. No food or drink other than a water bottle is permitted. 

Locked Doors Responsibilities and Expectations : 

All outside doors are open until 9:05 am each day. After that time, only the two front doors 

will remain open to enter the school. Students should not open any locked doors for 

individuals attempting to enter the building. 

Lockers Responsibilities and Expectations: 

Lockers will be assigned by teachers and the combination (or spare key) is shared with the 

office. Lockers are the property of M.E. LaZerte School. Students are responsible for the 

cleanliness and care of their lockers and will be held responsible for any defacing or damage 

to the inside of the locker occurring during the school year. Students should not bring 

valuables or large amounts of money to school. Valuable items should not be left in 

backpacks, in classrooms, or in a student’s locker (or the physical education lockers). The 

school cannot be responsible for any locker losses or unattended valuables left in an 

unsecured state. Students are not permitted to share lockers. Students can either purchase 

a quality lock from the school or use their own. School officials may search a student’s 

locker at any time and seize any suspicious or illegal materials, and these may be used as 

evidence against the student in disciplinary proceedings. 

MEL Time Responsibilities and Expectations: 

M.E. LaZerte operates on a two-day cycle. This allows some classes to meet every second 

day (all year courses) and other classes to meet every day (semestered courses). 

MEL Time is a closed campus activity where all students extend their learning, pursue 

individual interests, collaborate with peers, or seek tutorial/learning supports. It occurs 

between Block 1 and 2 on Mondays Students and sign up through SchoolZone and 

sessions will become available at 8:30 am on the Tuesday prior to the session being offered. 

MEL Time gives choice about what is learned & when it is learned, and it can be mandated 

22 |40

for specific students for various needs (i.e. grad assembly, tutorial support, IB meetings, 

etc.). We are eager to support our students in becoming increasingly self-directed and 

successful in developing greater ownership for their learning.

make respectful choices for those around them.

standards of acceptable use when using either school-owned technology (software, 

hardware, and Internet) or their own personal electronic device for school purposes while

technology in school is a privilege, and this privilege may be revoked if students do not use

Unacceptable Behaviour: 

Any behaviour which disrupts the educational atmosphere of the school or which interferes 

with the rights of others to learn, to be respected or to feel safe is unacceptable. Edmonton 

Public Schools’ policy on student behaviour and conduct outlines the following: 

Students are accountable for their behaviour whether or not it occurs on school property 

or within the school day. When behaviour that occurs off school property, or outside of 

regular school hours, threatens the safety or well-being of individuals within the school 

community or disrupts the learning environment, school administrators may apply 

consequences for the behaviour. 

Examples of unacceptable behaviour include, but are not limited to: 

1. behaviours that interfere with the learning of others and/or the school environment 

2. behaviours that create unsafe conditions 

3. acts of bullying, harassment, threats, or intimidations whether it be in person, 

indirectly, or by electronic means 

4. physical violence 

5. retribution against any person who has intervened to prevent or report bullying or 

any other incident or safety concern 

6. possession, use or distribution of substances restricted by federal, provincial, 

municipal, District or school authorities

32 |40

a. possession, use or distribution of illegal substances 

b. possession of a weapon or use of a weapon (or replica) to threaten, intimidate 

or harm others 

c. possession, use, display, or distribution of offensive messages, videos or 

images 

d. theft or possession of stolen property 

8. any breach of rules and expectations established by District administrative 

regulations or a school-based code of conduct 

9. failure to comply with Section 12 of the School Act. 

33 |40

School Responses to Unacceptable Behaviour: 

If students fail to meet classroom, school or District expectations, a range of responses or 

consequences may be put in place to address unacceptable behaviour. Edmonton Public 

Schools’ policy outlines the following: 

Unacceptable behaviour may be grounds for disciplinary action which provides the student 

with an opportunity for critical learning and reflection in the areas of personal 

accountability and responsibility, the development of empathy, as well as communication, 

conflict resolution, and social skills development. 

The specific circumstances of the situation and of the student are taken into account when 

determining appropriate responses to unacceptable behaviour. 

When a student engages in unacceptable behaviour, consequences may include, but are not 

limited to: 

● temporary assignment of a student to an alternate supervised area within the school 

● temporary assignment of a student to an alternate learning location 

● short term removal of privileges 

● interventions such as positive behaviour supports, contracts, counselling, restorative 

practices 

● replacement or reimbursement for loss of or damage to property 

● in-school or out-of-school suspension 

● referral to Attendance Board or outside agency 

● recommendation for expulsion 

Students are expected to cooperate with investigations by school administration. When 

contemplating and conducting a reasonable search of student property (including electronic 

devices), school administration must balance a student’s reduced expectation of privacy in 

relation to school matters, with the need to provide a welcoming, caring, respectful and safe 

learning environment that respects diversity and fosters a sense of belonging for all 

students and staff. 

34 |40

At M.E. LaZerte High School, we are committed to ensuring that our school is a safe and 

productive learning environment. Where necessary, appropriate interventions or 

disciplinary action may be used to address unacceptable behaviour by students. 

If students are having difficulty resolving a conflict, they should seek assistance from a staff 

member that can include a school counsellor, administrator, or school resource officer. 

Physical violence or fighting to resolve conflicts is not tolerated. Students who fight may 

receive serious consequences that could include (but are not limited to) detentions, 

suspensions, alternative to suspensions, or a recommendation to the Superintendent for 

expulsion from M.E. LaZerte. Possession of a weapon will likely lead to a recommendation 

for expulsion and involvement of the police. Anything that has the potential to be harmful 

to one self or others may be considered a weapon.
