What is Marshall Mustang Promotion Retention Policy?
We expect all ‘Marshall Mustang’ students to be personally and socially responsible citizens. The privilege of participating in the year-end activities will be granted only to students who demonstrate that they have met this standard. Failure to consistently adhere to ALL of the standards of behavior outlined at the beginning of the school year, for the remainder of the school year, will result in the loss of 8th grade activity privileges. This includes but is not limited to referrals to the Main Office, habitual gum chewing, dress code violations and tardies. Parents will be notified by telephone and U.S. mail if their child is in danger of having his/her privileges revoked.
What are students responsible for in school?
Students are responsible for all school textbooks issued to them and for books checked out from the Library. Students MUST present their student identification card when checking out textbooks and/or Library books. Students are liable for damaged, lost or stolen textbooks and/or Library books and will be held financially responsible. Students with unpaid book fines may not be allowed to participate in extracurricular activities. This can possibly result in a District “hold” being placed on official documents such as transcripts, as outlined in District Board Policy. Records and grades may be withheld until books have been paid. Students will be provided with adequate school materials and supplies that include: pencils, paper, an agenda planner and a three ring binder with subject dividers for class assignments. The agenda planner and three-ring binders must be carried with the student to each class. Students will be provided the necessary supplemental materials for classroom participation as needed. Abuse of materials will be subject to disciplinary action. Furthermore, it is the Law (Williams Settlement) that all students must have a set of core textbooks at home. The school will provide class sets for instructional purposes.
