Planning Room
The Planning Room is a place where students can work on improving their
behaviour in class and throughout the school. The Planning Room Technician will
work with students to help them identify what they have done wrong, understand
WHY the behaviour was wrong, and work towards a plan to change said behaviour.
When trouble arises in class, students will first be sent to an administrator
who will decide if they should work in the Planning Room. Several situations
that require work in the Planning Room are as follows: disturbing others in
class, repeatedly arriving late to class, repeatedly arriving to class without
proper materials, and noncompliance with a teacher’s requests and directions.
A student request to use the Planning Room can be submitted to an administrator.
