      Behavior/Discipline

In order to foster a Christian environment of growth and development in all areas of a student's life, respect (for self and others) and responsibility are essential elements.  Our hope at St. Peter Cathedral is that all students develop these characteristics so that they may attain their goals and reach their potential.  We also believe that all students have the right to be educated in an environment free from unnecessary distractions and disruptions.  In order to provide this type of atmosphere, the staff and administration expect students to behave in an orderly and age-appropriate manner.

BASIC RULES FOR SCHOOL AND CLASSROOM CONDUCT:
