Let's Be Safe and Have Fun
THE 5 STEP SYSTEM
Camp is school. Therefore, what is prohibited at school, is prohibited at camp.
CODES staff uses a 5-Step System for redirecting and disciplining undesirable behavior while adhering to our core responsibility of being patient, encouraging, and gracious with every student. We WILL NOT send a student home without consulting the teachers on grounds first.
The following violations are grounds for immediate dismissal:
-
Fighting or Stealing
-
Any activity that is inherently dangerous to self or others
-
Outright defiance
-
Intentionally destroying property
-
Cabin raiding, pranks, or bullying
-
Unauthorized leaving of cabins or entering cabins of the opposite gender
-
Other behaviors at the discretion of the CODES Admin in conjunction with teachers
The 5-Step System:
-
Give a clear verbal warning. ("John, I have asked you not to throw sticks. This is your first warning.")
-
If the behavior persists, they've earned a 5 min Time Out (TO).
-
If the behavior persists, the TO increases to 10 min.
-
If the behavior persists, the TO increases to 15 min.
-
If the behavior persists, after a student has grossed a 15 min TO, CODES Admin will consult with the school representatives about additional consequences which may result in a call home, dismissal from camp, and/or consequences at school.
