DRESS CODE
Parents and staff at
Policy
A student may not attend classes wearing apparel which:
- creates a safety hazard
- distracts from learning
- disrupts any school activity
Guidelines
The following are not permitted on campus:
- dresses and shorts which are shorter than mid-thigh
- tops which do not cover from shoulder to waist: i.e. tops and bottoms must meet
- body piercing that creates a safety hazard
- items referring to illegal drugs and alcohol
- clothing with profanity or suggestive words or images
- any attire which is extremely low cut or which exposes undergarments
- transparent tops unless worn over another top
In addition, all headwear is to be removed upon entry to the building.
Responsibilities
Parents share the responsibility of seeing that
students are dressed properly for school.
School personnel have the responsibility for maintaining and enforcing
an appropriate dress code that is conducive to learning.
Consequences
Students will be required to change their clothing, cover the inappropriate clothing or go home and make the necessary changes.
Every school in
of KVHS students, appointed
community members, a teacher elected by the teachers, the principal and at
least 1 student member chosen by the student body.
This is an opportunity for
students to have input into the operation of their school and establish
contacts that may be useful beyond high school.
Past students have found this experience very rewarding and the
committee appreciated their insight into school issues. Please contact Mr. Munro in early September
for more information if you are interested in serving your school in this
manner.

RANKING
Ranking of students based on final marks is used in four different ways. They are: high honors and honors, ranking for post-secondary applications and scholarships, ranking for the Governor General’s Award and ranking to select the valedictorian.
The honors and high honors standing is an average of the marks earned in all courses taken in a semester. Honors are from 80% - 89.9%. High Honors is 90% and over.
The post secondary ranking is used to determine the rank of the students who are eligible to apply to Universities. This ranking is completed after the first semester only. Current Grade 11 students and all subsequent potential graduates will be ranked based on their marks in all courses that could be used for entrance to UNB taken in Grade 11 and the first semester of Grade 12. Each enriched level one class in which a student has 85% or greater will result in 0.3 of one per-cent being added to the students’ average. Although all students are given a rank in relation to their graduating class, it is approximately the top ten students for whom this is most important. Each University does their own ranking for scholarship purposes but they do want to know who our top students are.
The Governor General’s Award will be determined by the top average taken in Grade 11 and 12.
The valedictorian will
be the student with the highest average on all courses taken in the grade 12
year. Each enriched and level one class will result in 0.3 of one per-cent
being added to the students’ average. It is possible that the valedictorian and
the recipient of the Governor General’s medal could be different individuals.
LEADERSHIP
The student council is
known as the Leadership Team. The
Leadership Team consists of six students elected as student council members by
the entire student body. Four additional
members are elected by the Grad Class, as well as representatives for Arts,
Athletics and Academics these elections occur each spring. This Team provides activities and clubs in
which students are encouraged to become involved.
Athletics
The school has high
standards for the behaviour of all athletes when in school and when
representing our school at all functions.
Athletes are expected to be good role models in all aspects of school
and community life.
The KVHS Athletic
Program is expensive to implement and fees are necessary to balance the cost of
the Athletic Program with other important extra-curricular programs. Athletic fees are used to subsidize cost of
field and gym maintenance, officials, travel, equipment and uniforms. Each sport’s fee is determined by its operational
cost.
Before students are
eligible to participate in a sport, they must pay their School Student Fee and
the full Athletic Fee for that sport.
Students involved in multiple sports may be eligible to receive a
partial refund. Please contact the Principal
and Athletic Director if the athletic fee prevents the student from
participating in the Athletic Program.
TECH CREW
The KVHS Tech Crew is a
group of student volunteers dedicated to learning about theatrical lighting,
sound, and effects that can be used during stage productions and special
activities for the school, such as variety shows, football games, and Spook
Trail. Students are recruited from grade
nine and spend four years training and acquiring new levels of
responsibility. Members take part in all
aspects of production including set construction and scenic painting.
The work room
The Work room is a
state-of-the-art career resource centre located at Kennebecasis Valley High School If you would like to create a resume, search
job banks for employment or need some career options to pursue after you
graduate, then this is the place for you.
Students and members of the general public can access a ton of career
information and employment skills workshops through the Work room free of
charge! For more information, visit www.careersthatwork.ca
KVHS KOREAN CRUSADERS
KVHS Korean Crusaders is
a club for Korean students attending KVHS.
Our weekly lunch meetings offer a relaxed opportunity to meet with other
Korean students at the school. We work
to encourage Korean students to get involved with school activities and help
each other when we have problems. We
also organize meetings between current students and graduates to talk about
their lives after high school. Our
future goals include events to showcase our unique culture to our Canadian
friends.
WHAT IS RENAISSANCE
Renaissance is a process
that empowers students, educators, administrators, parents, business and
community organizations to work together to encourage student achievement,
celebrate success and increase community involvement in our school.
Visual and Performing Arts
There are many
committees to support these activities.
Students are encouraged to investigate their area of interest.
GENERAL INFORMATION
In order to recognize
and promote student involvement both in school and the community,
The following are the
general requirements:
Certificate Level:
The student must complete 50 hours of volunteer service within the
school and 20 hours in the community.
Pin Level:
The student must complete an additional 50 hours of service within the
school and 20 hours in the community as well as a self-initiated service
project to benefit the community.
Upon completion of the
above requirements, the student must submit all documentation to the
Citizenship Award Committee. Details are
available in the school office.
Student Fees
A fee of $35 is
mandatory for every student payable at the beginning of the year. This fee
provides the student with a locker, student pass and funds Edline. The pass is
a picture ID which gives the student cost reductions for school sponsored
activities and permits students to attend functions restricted to KVHS
students. A lock may be purchased at the school for an additional $5. The lock
becomes the property of the student and may be taken home after use at the
school. All locks the students use are to be school purchased locks only.
Eating Area
Students are to eat
their lunches in the cafeteria, front foyer or the small foyer at the bottom of
the main stairs. Students are requested
to keep all areas of the school clean.
Please place all garbage in garbage cans. Return all trays and dishes and keep the
tables clean. Everyone must take pride
in keeping the school clean and orderly.
Textbooks
All student textbooks
are supplied free by the Department of Education and must be returned in good
condition at the end of the school year.
Students will be asked to purchase workbooks in certain courses. If a textbook is lost, the student will have
to pay for it before marks will be given.
The same procedure will be followed for lost library books. Students who do not return assigned textbooks
will not receive report cards or have marks sent to any institution until the
book is returned or paid for.
Hats
Many employers tell us
that students who enter their office looking for employment and wearing a hat
will not be considered for a position.
Accordingly, students are not to wear their hats when inside the school
building. Also, removal of the hat
indicates movement into the positive culture of our school.
Our objective is to
increase awareness, not to cause confrontations. Your assistance and understanding will be
appreciated.
Cheating
Students caught cheating on
tests or exams will receive a zero on that test or exam and be placed on a step
on the discipline procedure.
Parking
The walkway at the front
of the school is to be kept clear for emergency vehicles at all times.
Students are to use the student parking lot only. Cars are not to
be parked on the sides or at the back of the school. All cars are to be registered
at the main office so if lights are left on or if there is a problem, the
driver may be notified. Please do not park or drive on the grass.
Parents dropping off and picking up students should do so at the front of the building in the lanes provided, not at the side in the staff parking lot.
Language and General Conduct
Everyone is expected to
act and speak in a mature, responsible manner.
The use of profane language is not acceptable.
Absences
Students are expected to
be in regular attendance at school. On
the day following an absence, students are required to bring a dated note from
their parent or guardian explaining the reason for the absence. This note is to be given to the homeroom
teacher who will complete a form which students will show to their subject
teachers. Homeroom teachers will keep
parental notes on file.
Tardiness
Students are expected to
arrive on time for classes. Those who
arrive late will be required by subject teachers to complete a "late
assignment" which must be passed in on the following day. Students who are
consistently late, or who do not complete "late assignments" will be
referred to a vice principal. Chronic
tardiness will lead to a step in our Discipline procedure.
Signing In/Out
Students who arrive late
during period one must go directly to their first class. Students, who arrive late after first period,
must sign in at the office. Students,
who must leave school during the day, must sign out at the office.
If a parent or guardian is coming to the school to meet a student, the
student is to stay in class and the parent or guardian is requested to come to
the office. The student will be called
from his subject class. Your co-operation
with this procedure will be most appreciated because students are absent from
class for unnecessary periods of time while waiting for drives.
Smoking
School property and surrounding residential areas have been designated smoke free. There will be education and support opportunities for students. Consequences for smoking on school property begin with a letter of warning and continue with progressively longer suspensions.
Vandalism
Discipline
The vast majority of
students and parents want a school operated under firm guidelines. Students are encouraged to be in regular
attendance, to put effort into their studies and to conduct themselves as
ladies and gentlemen.
Discipline Policy
Responsibilities of Students
Students are expected to act in a polite, reasonable and co-operative manner. These behaviour standards are for in-school,
co- and extra-curricular activities and conduct to and from school. Disruptive behaviour is unacceptable and
shall be defined and dealt with as outlined below.
Responsibilities of Teachers
Teachers must promote a positive school environment in and on school
property and when involved in co- and extra-curricular activities. Teachers are responsible for classroom
management and should enforce discipline in a fair and reasonable manner.
Unacceptable Behaviour
As stated in The Positive Learning Environment Policy 703, disruptive
behaviours include: defiance, refusal to work or to comply, disrespectful
language and/or gestures, disruption, name calling, ridiculing, physically
acting out, not being prepared for
class, chronic tardiness or any other offence that interferes with a positive
learning environment.. When disruptive behaviour becomes substantial and
persistent, the steps of the following formal plan of intervention shall be put
in place.

TECHNOLOGY USE IN SCHOOL
In accordance with the District 6
policy on electronic devices and cell phones, adopted May 2007, the following
procedure to maintain a positive learning environment will be adopted in
September 2007 at KVHS.
1. Use of cell phones during instruction time is prohibited in KVHS. If a student must use a cell phone on a break or at noon hour, the lobby and cafeteria only, will be designated a cell phone use area at these times.
2. Non compliance with this rule will result in the following actions:
1st incident - The teacher will confiscate the phone and return it to the student at
the end of the class period.
2nd incident - The teacher will confiscate the phone and deliver it to the office
be returned to the student at the end of the day or after a longer
interval at the principal’s discretion.
3rd
incident - The teacher will confiscate the phone, deliver it to the
office and
contact the parent/guardian to pick up the
phone at the school.
3. Students who record unsolicited images, video or audio in school and/or post these items on the internet will be subject to disciplinary measures.
1st incident - The
teacher will confiscate the electronic device and deliver it to the
office. Parent/Guardian will be
contacted to discuss the issue and the device will be returned at the end of
the day, or after a longer interval, at the principal’s discretion.
2nd
incident - The teacher will confiscate the electronic device, deliver
it to the office where it will be picked up by the parent/guardian.
3rd incident - The
student will be banned from having electronic devices at school. The Device will be confiscated and the
parent/guardian will pick up the device and discuss the ban.
4. Use of electronic music devices during class time will be at the discretion of individual teachers based on their professional assessment of their particular learning environment.
ATTENDANCE POLICY
Semestered courses are
completed in approximately eighty class periods of sixty minutes, and regular
attendance is an essential criterion of academic achievement. In order to encourage consistent attendance,
A student who misses 12
class periods in a specific semester, may have to appear before the Attendance
Committee. At this time, the committee
may recommend suspension for the remainder of the semester or the student may
be given one more chance with no absences. If the student is suspended for the
semester, they will be allowed to return and write their exams.
Just cause is defined as
documented illness, religious holidays, or circumstances of a compassionate
nature (New Brunswick Schools' Act).
After a student has been
suspended by the Attendance Committee, upon his/her return, the maximum number
of periods to be missed in any one subject is reduced to eight (8). This will remain in effect until the student
graduates.
Students must consider
the effect on their attendance of participation in such activities as family
trips, school trips, sports, drama, and other extra-curricular interests. Such absences will be counted. Furthermore, students should not be allowed
to leave a class in one subject to perform a task related to another
subject. Students are also expected to
be punctual, and to be in their classrooms before the final bell.
Absence Defined
A student who has failed to attend class for any reason is deemed
absent.
Any missed class or
classes will result in a phone call to the student's home via an auto dialer
system. If parents or guardians are
aware of the absence and written excuses provided (other than school sponsored
activities) then no further response is necessary. A second contact with the student's home will
be made when a student has missed
seven (7) class periods;
and a further notice will be issued when a student has been absent for ten (10)
class periods. The student will also be interviewed by a vice principal, and
referred to a guidance counsellor when he/she has missed ten (10) classes.
When a student has
missed (12) class periods, a vice principal will inform the student that he/she
must appear before the Attendance Committee and explain his/her absences. Parents/Guardians will be invited to the
Attendance Committee hearing also.
Unless the student provides just cause for his/her absences, he/she will
be suspended for the remainder of the semester and will not be permitted to
write any examinations for that semester. The student may return to school in
the next semester with a fresh record of attendance.
Appeal Procedure
The School Appeals
Committee is the first level of appeal regarding the suspension of students
from school. A pupil’s suspension from
school attendance may be appealed only if the pupil has already been suspended
from school for a total of (5) days in the same school year. Any suspension from school attendance on,
after or which includes the 6th day of suspension from school
attendance may be appealed.
AN ATTENDANCE INCENTIVE
Preamble:
It is recognized that there will be circumstances beyond the control of a student that will cause that student to be absent. However, to fairly evaluate the merits of each absence is impossible.
An attendance exemption
is a privilege that must be earned based on the following criteria:
A student who has
perfect or near perfect attendance during a semester will be allowed to waive
one of his/her final exams for that semester, subject to the following
conditions:
1.
Near
perfect attendance is defined as no more than a total of 15 subject classes
missed during a given semester. A
maximum of 3 absences is allowed in any one class.
2.
Two
tardies will equal one absence. N.B. The total of three absences and one
tardy is too much in one subject.
Therefore an exemption will not be forthcoming.
3.
In
the event of a death in a student's immediate family, that student is to
contact the Principal before or immediately after the absence. A note will be given to the student with a
copy to each teacher concerned. A copy
will be placed in the student's cumulative record. These absences will not count for this
policy.
4.
School
suspensions will count against the student because it is the student's
behaviour that caused the suspension.
5.
Students
who are absent from subject class because of school sponsored co-curricular or extra-curricular
activities or because of other reasons for which the school or school district
is responsible (e.g.: late buses) will be deemed absent, but the absence will
not count against them. For the purpose of this policy. Any other absences will be regarded as
absences, without distinguishing between those, which are acceptable, and those
which are not. If a student sustains an
injury during a school activity and misses excessive classes, that student will
not be eligible for an exemption.
6.
It
is the student's responsibility to advise the subject teacher before (if
possible) or immediately after the absence if the absence is school related.
7.
The
student's behaviour must be deemed positive and acceptable by the teacher in
whose subject the exemption is being granted.
Also, all tests and projects must be satisfactorily completed.
8.
In
the event of a discrepancy between the computer records and the teachers'
records, the teachers' records will be considered the correct source of
information.
9.
A
student can not eliminate an exam in a course which he/she is failing.
10. The student's mark on a course for
which the final exam has been waived will be based on the student's class mark
for the course.
11. A student must take five (5) courses
during a semester to be eligible for an exemption.
12. A student may choose to exempt only
one of two exams in year long courses.
13. Consideration will be given to
students who attend diabetic or asthma teaching clinics. These absences must be
approved by the Principal in consultation with the appropriate Doctor.
14. Students who are absent from subject
class because of participation on a Provincial Team that is competing at a
national competition will be deemed present for the purpose of this policy. It
is the responsibility of the student to inform his subject teacher and have the
absence approved by the principal.
Plagiarism
Plagiarism includes all of the following:
l quoting a source word for word, or almost word for word, without properly acknowledging the source of these words;
l using someone else's ideas (including arguments and lines of thought) without properly acknowledging the source of these ideas;
l using someone else's work without acknowledging it; and
l submitting someone else's work as your own.
Plagiarism is not:
l quoting another writer while using quotation marks and providing a reference for the quotation;
l presenting someone else's ideas or argument while providing a reference for them; and
l discussing facts or ideas which are common knowledge or have been studied or discussed in class or provided by the teacher in the form of notes.
Plagiarism is a serious form of academic misconduct and intellectual dishonesty. Any evidence of plagiarism will result in a mark of zero on the assignment and may involve further disciplinary action.
LIBRARY
Staff and students are
encouraged to take advantage of the services available in the school
library. Facilities are provided for
research, study and recreational activities.
The library has seating for 100 users, a collection of approximately 10,000
items including non-book materials such as video and CM ROM disks and an
adequate selection of periodicals. The
library catalogue and circulation procedures are fully computerized which makes
for greatly improved operation. The library also boasts 3 CD ROMs.
