Rapid Rewards Program:
A rapid rewards program has been implemented at Ooltewah Middle School, which will help to identify students with successful academics and behavior. Levels range from 1 -7 and include the following:
Level 7- All A’s in Academics, All S’s in conduct
Level 6- All A’s and B’s in Academics, All S’s in conduct
Level 5- All passing grades in Academics, All S’s in conduct
Level 4- Failing one or more subject and/or N in conduct
Level 3- ISS, Detention, Evening School, U in conduct, more than one N in conduct
Level 2- Out of school suspension
Level 1- Alternative School Placement
**Rapid Reward levels will be re-evaluated every 3 weeks at the end of each reporting period. Office referrals and disciplinary consequences may cause an immediate drop in rapid reward levels. Teams will inform students of Rapid Reward levels every reporting period.
Students should keep this in mind and make good choices on a daily basis. Levels will be used when determining who is qualified for school dances, events, field trips, etc. Generally, levels 1-3 may not attend and level 4's may participate with team approval.
School Tardy Policy
Tardiness results in a loss of instruction time and class
disruptions.
For this reason, any student who arrives after 7:15 or is late to
a class during the day will be counted as tardy.
Students are allowed 5
unexcused tardies to school per semester.
Upon the 6th tardy to school,
parents will meet with administration in to resolve the issue.
Further tardies will have additional consequences.
Tardies during the day (2nd period through 7th
period):
3 tardies on academic team=warning, student will sign tardy
referral, teacher call to parent
5 tardies on academic team =consequence, administrator will
assign and inform parent
*Every additional tardy will result in further disciplinary consequences.
