DISCIPLINE

MidState Christian Academy is fully committed in helping your child to become more disciplined and responsible. Discipline is essential in order to create a safe and orderly environment in which every child can learn effectively. At MidState Christian Academy, the teachers are the authority in the classrooms. All students are expected to maintain the highest form of Christian character. Respect must be shown at all times to the teachers, peers, and school property.

Discipline for Elementary

Minor infractions may be dealt with as the teacher sees fit. Major infractions (lying, stealing, cheating, rebellion, disobedience, disrespect, etc.) may result in the administration contacting the parents. Parents may not be notified of minor infractions that have been dealt with in the classroom although necessary records will be kept on file via Jupiter Ed.

Discipline for Middle School/ High School

The detention system has been chosen as a guide for discipline on the secondary level (6th – 12th grade).

  1. First and Second Disciplinary Referral Form will result in detention.
  2. Third Disciplinary Referral form will result in one day suspension from school and a meeting with student /parent /Principal.
  3. Fourth Disciplinary Referral form results in two day suspension.
  4. Fifth Disciplinary Referral form results in dismissal of student with NO REFUND for that billing month.

Disciplinary detention begins each Friday at 7am sharp. Parents are not able to drop off additional children at that time. Any student who is late or who misses their detention will be given another detention and parents will be required to pay a fee of $10.
