The Caring Places
 to Learn Policy

The Eastern School District’s Caring Places to Learn policy is a comprehensive policy designed to ensure that schools in the Eastern School District provide a healthy, safe, and supportive working and learning environment for every student and staff member. The Caring Places to Learn policy is an "umbrella" policy which supports each school’s own policies and practices in this area.

***********************

 Parents play a vital role in developing student behaviour and conduct. It is our expectation that parents:

- be aware of the school’s code of conduct.

- work with the school to resolve student behaviour issues when they affect their children.

- cooperate with the school’s or district’s recommended course of action for the student.

- model appropriate behaviour and language for their children.

All parents/guardians are reminded that they are subject to the school’s code of conduct, as are all students and staff.

Home & School Association/Advisory Council

The L. M. Montgomery Home and School Association/Advisory Council is an efficient and effective organization of parents and teachers. General meetings are held in each intervening month. In addition to the financial support the Association gives to the School's operation, it also provides parents with meaningful opportunities to understand and provide feedback in regards to activities and policies at the school.

Several Standing Committees have an active role throughout the year. Their involvement includes providing playground equipment, coordinating the use of the School in the evenings by community groups, coordinating the Lunch Program, and providing refreshments for school activities.
