Responsive ClassroomAll of South Brunswick teachers are trained in the Responsive Classroom approach to teaching and classroom management. Responsive classroom focuses on personal responsibility, classroom culture, clearly outlined expectations and logical consequences for failure to meet those expectations. This approach has been proven to reduce conflicts both in and out of the classroom.

Behavioral expectations of studentsAll South Brunswick students are presented with appropriate behavioral expectations. Students are given both a Behavioral Expectations agreement and an Acceptable Use Agreement (electronics) to read, discuss and to sign (either individually or as a class.) Logical consequences will be given to address behaviors deemed inappropriate.
HIB/Bullying InterventionsIn the event that a child does exhibit behavior that may be deemed HIB, the Principal will be notified, parents will be contacted, and an investigation will be conducted. As the Anti-bullying Specialist, I will conduct the investigation and report the results to the Principal. Appropriate interventions, remedial measures and consequences will be determined within 10 school days. If you would like additional information on this process, or feel your child has been a target of HIB, please contact me as soon as possible. [email protected]
