PBIS Expectations

PBIS Expectations

These expectations were developed by students, parents, teachers, and the principal of McKinley School.  The goal of these expectations is to develop and maintain pride in ourselves, our school, and our community.  By working together, we will make McKinley School safe, clean, and orderly at all times. 

 

PBIS Expectations

All McKinley students are expected to assume responsibility for their own actions and to follow these three expectations:

  1.       Be kind
  2.       Be safe
  3.       Be responsible

In addition to the PBIS expectations and the District’s suspension and expulsion rules and regulations, we have developed other guidelines to help students in their daily lives at McKinley School.  They are as follows:

 

Appearance

Daily school attire should be neat, clean, cover undergarments, and conform to safety standards.

Academic Attire includes but are not limited to (McKinley currently does not require uniforms):

  • Solid color collared shirt
  • Solid color pants, short, shirts
  • Shoes with closed toe and closed heel
  • Hats and sweatshirt hoods may be worn outdoors only

 

Please refer to the San Gabriel Unified School District Dress Code for additional information in this area. 

 

Toys from Home

With the permission of the teacher, parents may send a toy with their child for the purpose of sharing time in.

 All other toys, including but not limited to trading cards, electronic games, and devices of any kind, are not permitted at school. The exception is during Rock Star Mustangs with the teacher's permission. McKinley will not be responsible for any damaged or lost items brought to school.
