Detention Process
In – School Detention:
In school detention will be held in the Alternative Learning Center (ALC). In school detention will be earned
by students who display Level Two Behaviors as defined on the Consequences for Un-Bearable Behaviors Document.
Teachers must complete an Alternative Learning Detention Form and send the form with the child along with
his/her assignment. If an escort is needed to bring the child to the Alternative Learning Center, please inform
the office. Students will earn 30 minutes of in school detention per infraction. This time will be used to reflect
on the issue by completing a Behavior Log, discussing the situation with an ALC Staff Member, and completing
class work sent from the referring teacher. Only Administrators can extend the time frame for in school
detention.
After School Detention:
After school detention will be held every Thursday from 2:50 pm – 3:50 pm in Room 41. During after school
detention students will be required to complete a Behavior Reflection Sheet and have the opportunity re-learn
school-wide behavior expectations and BCPSS Code of Conduct. No homework will be completed during this
time. After school detention will be earned by a student for the following reasons:
 Student has been sent to the ALC for in school detention more than one time in a day.
 Student has been sent to the ALC for in school detention three or more times within a week.
 Student was found cutting class by a staff member.
 Other disciplinary issues as deemed appropriate by the Administrative Team.
 Student has missed an assigned after school detention (he/she now earns 2)
Saturday School Detention:
Saturday school detention will be held one Saturday per month from 9:00 am to 11:00 am. During Saturday
school detention students will have the opportunity to reflect on ways to improve their behaviors, re-learn
school-wide behavior expectations and BCPSS Code of Conduct, and complete community service projects
within and around the school. Saturday school detention will be earned by the student for the following
reasons:
 Student has missed two after school detentions.
 Student has earned two after school detentions within one week.
 Student was found cutting class two times in a week.
 Other disciplinary issues as deemed appropriate by the Administrative Team.
If a student does not attend the assigned Saturday school detention he/she will receive additional administrative
consequences to include suspension from school.
After school and Saturday school detention procedures:
The ALC Staff will be responsible for coordinating and communicating with the teachers/staff, parents, and
students when an after school or Saturday school detention is earned. A letter will be sent home and a phone
call will be made to inform the parent about the situation and earned consequence of detention. Each staff
member will receive a weekly memo in their mailboxes listing all students who are assigned after school or
Saturday school detention. Teachers will have the opportunity to facilitate after school and Saturday school
detention for a stipend. A sign up sheet will be disseminated each month.
