Z.A.Ps
Zeroes Aren't Permitted
Zeroes Aren’t Permitted (Z.A.P.) This policy is designed to increase the expectation that all homework/practice assignments are to be turned in on time to the teacher. We hope that this policy will help students continue to acquire good work habits and self-discipline that will serve them well as they move on to high school. The main message of this policy is to communicate to our students that any sort of ZERO is not acceptable.
All Z.A.P. referrals will accumulate per quarter/per class. In all referral situations the assignment will still be expected to be completed and turned into the teacher. The steps of the policy are as follows:
**1st Z.A.P. referral – A learning lunch will be assigned to work on the assignment. If the Z.A.P. is given after a student’s lunch period then the assignment is due the next morning to the teacher. If it is not completed the student will attend a learning lunch that day to work on the assignment.
**2nd Z.A.P. referral – 3 consecutive learning lunches and parent notified.
**3rd Z.A.P. referral – 1 hour after school detention and parent notified.
**4th Z.A.P. referral – 3 hour after school detention and parent notified.
*Failure to serve a 3 hour detention will result in an ISS consequence. After four referrals in a class in a given quarter, administrator’s discretion will guide disciplinary action from that point until the beginning of a new quarter.
