EXPECTATIONS FOR STUDENT CONDUCT
We expect our students to meet the highest standards of behavior, both in personal deportment
and in dedication to academic pursuits. At each site, students learn about our standards for
behavior, including site rules, on the first day. While specific rules vary somewhat from site to site,
community standards throughout our summer programs are basic and consistent. They apply both
in and out of the classroom. They include a commitment to academic and personal integrity, respect
for all members of the community, regard for the basic rules of physical safety, and cooperation
with adult supervision. To this end, students must adhere to our Honor Code (see below).We
cannot accommodate students who are unwilling or unable to live up to these expectations. Please
discuss the meaning of this code with your child.
