NBT Student Code of Conduct

TO BE COMPLETED BY ALL PARTICIPATING STUDENTS

In order to provide a meaningful experience for all students, we require that all students have self-discipline and follow instructions. Discipline plays an important role in helping adolescents develop socially, emotionally, and physically, and is also vital for student safety. Students are expected to follow the code of conduct at all times.

If behavioral problems persist, parents will be contacted to discuss the situation. If a student’s behavior is unsafe or harmful to themselves or others, parents will be notified to pick up their child. Recurrent behavioral problems may result in permanent suspension from the program without a refund.
