Maturity Comes With
Positive Discipline
Mutual respect and
positive interpersonal relations are cornerstones of the successful discipline model at
Greenway School. Academic accomplishment is greatly enhanced in a
socially/emotionally responsive environment.
This learning community models and expects behaviors which are age-appropriate,
responsible and respectful.
With
the wholehearted support of the entire school staff, each family takes primary
responsibility for their child's compliance with the Greenway community's high
standards.
"Students learn
social skills, such as listening, taking turns, hearing different points of view,
negotiating, communicating, helping one another, and taking responsibility for their own
behavior. They also strengthen their academic skills, perhaps without realizing it."

Discipline In The Classroom
These methods are
not new; however their systematic approach to what is known about how children become
competent, confident and responsible individuals is applicable on a daily basis.
