Standards of behavior are demonstrated by:

Parents/Guardians Who:

• Keep in regular contact with the school concerning their child’s conduct and progress and offer assistance as necessary.
• Insure that their child is in daily attendance and report and explain any absence to the school.
• Provide their child with the resources needed to complete classwork.
• Attend conferences and meetings as invited/requested. The A Plus Education Reform Act of 2000 uthorizes local boards of education, by petition to the juvenile court, to proceed against a parent or guardian for willful and unreasonable refusal to participate in efforts to improve a chronic disciplinary problem student’s behavior. If the court finds that the parent or guardian has willfully and unreasonably failed to attend a conference, the court may order the parent or guardian to attend such a conference, order the parent or guardian to participate in such programs or such treatment as the court deems appropriate to improve the student’s behavior, or both. After notice and opportunity for hearing, the court may impose a fine, not to exceed $500.00, on a parent or guardian who willfully disobeys an order of the court.
