<p>This Handbook is a guide to student behavior. The Journey School (TJS) Board of Education creates and adopts policies to guide the actions of everyone in the district. The Director develops procedures to show how these policies will be implemented at TJS. Teachers and other staff then work with students to set and follow the expectations for how they will work together in each classroom. Adult staff members are held to high standards of behavior and are subject to all applicable laws, Board of Education policies, and Human Resources’ rules and practices.</p>



<p>The guidelines and regulations regarding student behavior and discipline in this handbook fulfill the Board of Education’s policies as stated in TJS Board Policies and Minn. Stat. § 121A.55(a).</p>



<p><strong>The Handbook applies to conduct occurring:</strong></p>



<ol class="wp-block-list">
<li>On school property, on school district-provided transportation, or at designated locations for students to wait for school district-provided transportation.</li>



<li>During any school-sponsored or school-sanctioned program, activity, event or trip.</li>



<li>Using school computers, electronic technology, networks, forums, or mailing lists.</li>



<li>Using electronic technology off the school premises that materially and substantially disrupts a student’s learning or the school environment.</li>



<li>This handbook may also apply to incidents involving TJS students if an unapproved connection or association to TJS or its staff is explicitly or implicitly stated or inferred (for example, hazing).</li>
</ol>
