A Note from the Superintendent

As a former high school teacher, I proudly walked into my classroom each day with

new hopes, dreams, and possibilities for my students. As you know, there is nothing

more special than the touch or an encouraging word from a teacher. If only this were

our current reality. Not being able to see each other physically has been hard for

everyone. With most of the nation currently working from home due to COVID-19,

our schools are physically closed; you are unable to see your teachers and friends in

person. In an effort to stay connected to everyone, we have developed this plan to

keep our administrators, teachers, and students connected. It is extremely urgent

that we continue to support each other as we continue on this virtual journey

together.

Diana Mitchell, Ed.D., Superintendent A Champion for Students

Scope and Expectations of Fulltime Remote Learning:

A student participating in the board’s fulltime remote learning option must be

afforded the same quality and scope of instruction and other educational services as

any other student otherwise participating in district programs (e.g. students

participating in a hybrid model). This includes, for example, access to standards-

based instruction of the same quality and rigor as that afforded all other students of

the district, the district making its best effort to ensure that every student

participating in remote learning has access to the requisite educational technology,

and the provision of special education and related services to the greatest extent

possible. Like in-person and hybrid programs, fulltime remote learning must adhere

to length of school day requirements pursuant N.J.A.C. 6A:32-8.3, local attendance

policies, and any other local policies governing delivery of services to, and district

expectations of, students participating in remote programs and their families. For

families/guardians requesting that a service transition from in-person or hybrid

delivery to fulltime remote delivery, the district must clearly define any additional

services, procedures, or expectations that will occur during the transition period.

Districts should endeavor to provide supports and resources to assist

families/guardians, particularly those of younger students, with meeting the

expectations of the district’s remote learning option.

Plainfield Educator Commitment

As Educators are implementing this Remote Learning Plan, they will…

• Complete all required tasks, including taking “attendance,” providing instructional

minutes, checking on students’ emotional well-being, and offering feedback on student

learning.

(Students will be considered “in attendance” if they are engaging in any form of two-way

communication with the teacher during the week.)

• Be available to students and families via Schoology, phone, text, email, Zoom, Google

Hangout, Class Dojo, etc. for a similar amount of time as they would if schools were

operating normally. (Electronic communication platforms will be used in accordance

with District guidelines.)

• Collaborate with colleagues (Principals, Assistant Principals, Content Area Supervisors,

Coaches, Teachers, Social Workers, Psychologists, and Central Office Staff) to address

needs that arise along the way.

• Participate in required weekly meetings per the Negotiated Agreement. The exact

days/times will be determined at the building level by Teachers and Principals.)

• Provide a range of meaningful learning opportunities and resources that engage and

meet the needs of all learners.

• Connect families with educational resources that support Emerging Bilinguals (including

necessary language supports) and students with IEPs/504s.

Grading Policy

The District will continue to follow File Policy 6147.1 Evaluation of Individual Student Performance.

Student Schedules

Student schedules for Grades K-5 will be issued on the first day of school. Students in Grades 6-12 will be able to access their fall schedule on September 1, 2020 via Genesis.

CONDUCT/DISCIPLINE

The Board believes that an effective instructional program requires an orderly school environment

and that the effectiveness of the educational program is, in part, reflected in the behavior of students.

The Board approved code of student conduct is established to achieve the following purposes:

A. Foster the health, safety, and social and emotional well-being of students;

B. Support the establishment and maintenance of civil, safe, secure, supportive and disciplined

school environments conducive to learning;

C. Promote achievement of high academic standards;

D. Prevent the occurrence of problem behaviors;

E. Establish parameters for the intervention and remediation of problem student behaviors at all

stages of identification; and

F. Establish parameters for consistent responses to violations of the code of student conduct that

take into account, at a minimum, the severity of offenses, the developmental ages of student

offenders and students' histories of inappropriate behaviors as appropriate.

The Board of Education expects students to conduct themselves in keeping with their level of maturity, with a proper regard for the rights and welfare of other students, for school personnel, for the educational purpose underlying all school activities, and for the care of school facilities and equipment. Students are required to conform to reasonable standards of socially acceptable behavior; respect the person, property and rights of others; obey constituted authority and respond to those who hold that authority.

The Board of Education believes that standards of student behavior must be set cooperatively by

interaction among the students, parents/guardians, staff and community, producing an atmosphere

that encourages students to grow in self-discipline. Such an atmosphere must include respect for self

and others, as well as for district and community property.

Board policy requires each student of this district to adhere to the rules and regulations established by the administration and to submit to such disciplinary measures as are appropriately assigned for infraction of those rules. The chief school administrator shall provide to students and their parents/guardians the rules of this district regarding student conduct and the sanctions that may be imposed for breach of those rules. Provisions shall be made for informing parents/guardians whose primary language is other than English.

The Chief School Administrator shall establish the degree of order necessary to the educational program in which students are engaged.

File Code: 5131 CONDUCT/DISCIPLINE (continued)

Page 2 of 8

Code of Conduct

The Chief School Administrator shall oversee the development of and the Board shall approve a code

of student conduct which establishes standards, policies and procedures for positive student

development and student behavioral expectations on school grounds, including on a school bus or at

school sponsored functions. The code of conduct may be based on parent/guardian and student. The

chief school administrator has the right and authority to impose a consequence on a student for

conduct away from school grounds that is consistent with the board's approved code of student

conduct, pursuant to N.J.A.C. 6A:16-7.1 and N.J.A.C. 6A:16-7.5.

This authority shall be exercised only when it is reasonably necessary for the student's physical or

emotional safety, security and well-being or for reasons relating to the safety, security and well being

of other students, staff or school grounds, pursuant to N.J.S.A. 18A:25-2 and 18A:37-2, and when the

conduct which is the subject of the proposed consequence materially and substantially interferes with

the requirements of appropriate discipline in the operation of the school. The board shall direct

development of detailed regulations suited to the age level of the students and the physical facilities

of the individual schools.

The District code of conduct shall contain:

A. A description of student responsibilities that includes expectations for academic achievement,

behavior and attendance;

B. A description of behaviors that will result in suspension or expulsion;

C. A description of the students' rights to:

1. Advance notice of behaviors that will result in suspensions or expulsions;

2. Education that supports student development into productive citizens;

3. Attendance in safe and secure school environment;

4. Attendance in school irrespective of marriage, pregnancy, or parenthood:

5. Due process and appeal procedures in accordance with law and board policy;

6. Parent notifications consistent with board policy and law for law enforcement interviews

(5145.11 Questioning and Apprehension), short-term and long-term suspension (5114

Suspension and Expulsion), due process and appeal procedures, and attendance (5113

Attendance, Absences and Excuses);

7. Records and privacy protections (5125 Student Records).

D. A description of comprehensive behavioral supports that promote positive student development

and assist each student in fulfilling the district behavioral expectations established including:

1. Positive reinforcement for good conduct and academic success;

2. Supportive interventions and referral services;

3. Remediation of problem behavior that takes into account the behavior's nature, the students'

developmental ages and the students' histories of problem behaviors and performance; and

4. Behavioral interventions and supports for students with an IEP or accommodation plans.

File Code: 5131 CONDUCT/DISCIPLINE (continued)

Page 3 of 8

E. A description of responses to violations of behavioral expectations that, at a minimum, are graded according to the severity of the offenses, and consider the developmental ages of the student offenders and their histories of inappropriate behaviors that shall:

1. Include a continuum of actions designed to remediate and, where necessary or required by

law, to impose sanctions; 2. Be consistent with other responses as required by law for serious offences including firearms,

weapons and assault offenses; 3. Ensure that the code of student conduct is applied equitably without regard to race, color,

religion, ancestry, national origin, nationality, sex, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, marital, domestic-partnership, or civil-union, mental, physical, or sensory disability, or any other distinguishing characteristic;

4. Be consistent with the provisions of N.J.S.A. 18A:6-1 regarding the corporal punishment of pupils.

F. Expectations and consequences consistent board policies and procedures 5113 Attendance,

G. A current list of community-based health and social service provider agencies available to support a student and the student's family, as appropriate, and a list of legal resources available to serve the community.

A student may be denied privileges such as participation in extracurricular activities, school functions, sports, graduation exercises or other privileges as disciplinary sanctions in order to maintain the order and integrity of the school environment.

Student Behavioral Infractions

Students who display chronic behavioral or academic problems may be referred to the child study team by the chief school administrator for an evaluation to determine disability or the need for other services. Such referrals shall be in strict accordance with the due process regulations prescribed by the administrative code. Students so identified shall be provided with appropriate programs and services as prescribed by the child study team.

A student whose presence poses a continuing danger to persons or property, or an ongoing threat of disrupting the academic process, may be suspended in accordance with N.J.A.C. 6A:16-7.1 and N.J.A.C. 6A:16-7.2, N.J.A.C. 6A:16-7.3 or expulsion in accordance with N.J.A.C. 6A:16-7.4, following due process. However, one incident alone is not sufficient cause for an expulsion.

Any student who commits an assault (as defined by N.J.S.A. 2C:12-1) upon a board member, teacher, administrator or other employee of the Board of Education shall be suspended from school immediately according to procedural due process, and suspension in accordance with N.J.A.C. 6A:16-7.1 and N.J.A.C. 6A:16-7.2, N.J.A.C. 6A:16-7.3 or expulsion in accordance with N.J.A.C. 6A:16-7.4. However, one incident alone is not sufficient cause for an expulsion. Proceedings shall begin no later than 30 calendar days from the date of the student's suspension.

The Chief School Administrator or his or her designee shall take appropriate measures to ensure that

minority and male students shall not be disproportionately represented in detentions, suspensions,

and expulsions.

Substance Abuse

In accordance with statute and code, penalties shall be assigned for use, possession and distribution of proscribed substances and drug paraphernalia. The penalties shall be graded according to the severity of the offense in accordance with policy 5131.6 Substance Abuse. Infractions shall be reported to the local law enforcement agency in accordance with the district's memorandum of agreement. Confidentiality shall be protected in accordance with federal and state law.

Weapons Offenses

Any student who is convicted or adjudicated delinquent for possession of a firearm or a crime while armed with a firearm or found knowingly in possession of a firearm on any school property or on a school bus or at a school-sponsored function shall be immediately removed from the school's regular education program for a period of not less than one calendar year. The Chief School Administrator may modify this suspension on a case-by-case basis. Each student so removed shall be placed in an alternative educational program or on home instruction pending alternative education program placement and shall be entitled to a hearing before the board. The hearing shall take place no later than 30 days following the day the student is removed from the regular education program and shall be closed to the public.

The principal shall be responsible for the removal of such students and shall immediately report them to the Chief School Administrator. The principal shall also notify the appropriate law enforcement agency of a possible violation of the New Jersey Code of Criminal Justice.

The Chief School Administrator shall determine at the end of the year whether the student is prepared to return to the regular education program, in accordance with N.J.A.C. 6A:16-5.5(i).

Teaching staff members and other employees of this board having authority over students shall take such lawful means as may be necessary to control the disorderly conduct of students in all situations and in all places where such students are within the jurisdiction of this board.

Harassment, Intimidation or Bullying

The Board expects all students to treat each other with civility and respect and not to engage in behavior that is disruptive or violent. This type of behavior interferes with a student's ability to learn and a school's ability to educate its students in a safe environment. Therefore, the school district will not tolerate acts of harassment, intimidation or bullying.

The Board prohibits acts of harassment, intimidation or bullying against any student in accordance with board policy 5131.1 Harassment, Intimidation and Bullying, and law.

"Harassment, intimidation or bullying" is defined as any gesture, any written, verbal or physical act, or any electronic communication, whether it be a single incident or a series of incidents, that is reasonably perceived as being motivated either by any actual or perceived characteristic, such as race, color, religion, ancestry, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, or a mental, physical or sensory disability, or by any other distinguishing characteristic, that takes place on school grounds, at any school-sponsored function or on a school bus, or off school grounds in accordance with law, that substantially disrupts or interferes with the orderly operation of the school or the rights of other students and that:

A. A reasonable person should know, under the circumstances, will have the effect of physically or mentally

harming a student or damaging the student's property, or placing a student in reasonable fear of physical

or mental harm to his/her person or damage to his/her property; or

B. Has the effect of insulting or demeaning any student or group of students; or

C. Creates a hostile educational environment by interfering with the student's education or by severely

or pervasively causing physical or emotional harm to the student.

"Electronic communication" means a communication that is transmitted by means of an electronic device, including, but not limited to a telephone, cellular phone, computer, or pager, that takes place on school grounds, at any school-sponsored function or on a school bus.

Students with Disabilities

Classified students are subject to the same disciplinary procedures as nondisabled students and may be disciplined in accordance with their IEP and accommodation plans. However, before disciplining a classified student, it must be determined that:

A. The student's behavior is not primarily caused by his/her educational disability;

B. The program that is being provided meets the student's needs.

Staff shall comply with state and federal law and the regulations of the New Jersey administrative code

in dealing with discipline and/or suspension of all students with disabilities.

Policy and Procedure Development, Review and Dissemination

The standards and procedures developed to implement this policy shall be aligned with the board approved code of student conduct and accepted board approved core ethical values. Policies, standards and procedures shall be based on parent, student and community involvement which represents, where possible, the composition of the schools and community, in accordance with N.J.A.C. 6A:16-7.1 .

This policy shall be reviewed annually and updated along with the code of student conduct. This process shall include:

A. Parent , student and community involvement which represents, where possible, the composition of the schools and community;

B. Consideration of the findings of the annual reports of student conduct, suspensions and expulsions;

and incidences reported under the Electronic Violence and Vandalism Reporting System.
