The Ministry of Education requires that all school boards develop a Code of Conduct which communicates to all members of the school community, including students, families
and caregivers, volunteers, staff, community members, trustees and visitors, the expected standards of behaviour.
The Waterloo Region District School Board (WRDSB) recognizes that all members of the school community have the right to be safe and to feel safe in their school community.
With this right comes the responsibility of the entire school community to contribute to a positive school climate.
The Board’s Code of Conduct has been developed in accordance with the guiding principles of the Education Act, Part XIII (Behaviour, Discipline and Safety), in order to create a common philosophy and understanding upon which safe, caring and inclusive learning and working environments can be maintained for all school community members. The collective efforts of the whole school supports the well-being of students, staff and the school community.
