It is important that parents/guardians school staff work together to help resolve conflicts at school. Parents are encouraged to contact the school principal concerning misunderstandings or problems that may arise with their child(ren).

All our rules of conduct are focused on creating a peaceful, happy and safe environment for children to share as they engage in learning and playing together. All staff members at our school see themselves as responsible for all the students entrusted to our care. In guiding our children, we aim to:

• Make them aware of the effects of their behaviour.
• Model for them and teach them safe, fair and helpful ways of behaving.
• Help them correct what they did wrong when possible, and/or replace negative behaviour with positive action.

Respect and responsibility for self, others, and our environment are the “bottom line” commitments of the Honoré Mercier Community, and they are reflected in our behaviour guidelines.
Honoré Mercier students show respect for themselves by:

• Attending school regularly and arriving on time each day.
• Making sure they have the materials needed for each class.
•  Dressing in neat and appropriate clothes and looking after their personal hygiene.
• Putting their best effort into their learning and asking for help when they need it.
• Completing their work on time in the best way they can.
