FINES
The school reserves the right to administer moderate fines as part of discipline for disregard of any of the school's rules and policies, or any offense against community or individual. Fines for subsequent offenses are generally increased. In addition to fines, serious or multiple offenses could result in a disciplinary hearing at Community Board, and possible suspension. The following are examples of typical first-time fines and would be charged for each violation and to each individual involved in an incident.
