The administration, faculty, and students at Pine View Middle School realizes that effective discipline is necessary to provide a safe and positive learning environment in order to provide every student the opportunity to maximize his/her potential. To make this possible the students, faculty, and administrators have worked together to develop a School-Wide Positive Support and Discipline Plan. This plan is reviewed each school year to provide for the ever-changing needs of our students. When this plan is sent home at the beginning of each school year, it is the responsibility of every parent to see that his or her child is familiar with and understands the Discipline Plan. Likewise, it is the responsibility of all personnel and administrators to see that the Discipline Plan is consistently and fairly implemented.

Sunrise Scholars is an important part of Pine View’s extended educational program. In order for a student to attend the academic focused morning care he/she must abide by all rules and expectations of the discipline plan. Parents will be notified of any discipline problems on the part of their child. If the problems continue, the student will be referred to the program director and then to the assistant principal's office. Students who continue to choose to act in an inappropriate manner at the Sunrise Scholars will not be allowed to attend. Major infractions may warrant immediate removal from the program and/or subject to school discipline as outlined in the STPSS District Handbook for Parents and Student.

It is necessary that the parent or guardian complete the special needs section of the enrollment form if their child has special needs that are to be met during the academic focused morning care program. If the student has an IEP/504 Plan, the parent must inform the Director and provide a current IEP/504 Plan. Tuition must be paid promptly and all rules and regulations of Pine View Middle School's school-wide discipline plan must be observed by all children in order to attend Sunrise Scholars.
