The Board of Education of Marlboro Central School District is committed to providing a safe and orderly school environment where students may receive and district personnel may deliver quality educational services without disruption or interference. Our intent is to provide an effective and fair Code of Conduct that includes a variety of strategies for supporting our students. We acknowledge that we must examine and consider a range of methods to solve behavior problems, prior to resorting to punitive consequences. Our ultimate goal is to help our students become responsible, caring citizens. Responsible behavior by students, teachers, other District personnel, parents and other visitors is essential to achieving this goal.

The District has a long-standing set of expectations for conduct on school property and at school functions. The expectations are based on the principles of civility, mutual respect, citizenship, character, tolerance, honesty and integrity.

Unless otherwise indicated, this code applies to all students, school personnel, parents and other visitors whin on school property or attending a school function.

The Code of Conduct was reviewed and approved by the Board of Education at their regular business meeting held on Thursday, August 17, 2023.
