D RESS CODE
The Duplin County Board of Education (the “Board”) believes that the appearance and the
conduct of its faculty are of supreme importance in establishing a positive image for education in
the community and for presenting a good example for students. Therefore, appropriately attired
for the work to be done. An employee’s dress must not disrupt or distract from the educational
process and must be in accordance with health and safety standards. The superintendent shall
develop and communicate to employees the guidelines for appropriate dress and appearance. Such
guidelines may authorize the principal or department supervisors to develop specific dress or
appearance requirements for each school or department.
Administrative and supervisory personnel shall set a good example in personal appearance and
good manners and shall encourage and expect employees to dress in accordance with the Board’s
expectations. An employee’s supervisor will make and initial determination of whether an
employee’s dress or appearance is inappropriate. In making the determination, the supervisor will
consider the following factors: 1) the nature of the work; 2) whether the dress is consistent with a
professional environment; 3) health and safety factors; 4) the nature of the employee’s public
contact and the normal expectations of outside parties with whom the employee will work; 5) the
10
employee’s interaction with students; 6) The prevailing practices of other workers in similar jobs;
and any properly established guidelines for dress or appearance.
If the supervisor determines that the employee’s dress or appearance violates the established
guidelines or is hazardous to health or safety of the employee, fellow employees or students, the
supervisor shall counsel the employee regarding attire that is consistent with this policy and shall
determine whether the employee is allowed to remain at work or must leave work to change his or
her dress. Any failure to follow the supervisor’s directive and/or repeated violations of this policy
will subject the employee to disciplinary action up to, and including, dismissal.
M Y LEARNING PLAN
Duplin County Schools utilizes an electronic program for the completion and routing of
professional development forms (prior approvals, PD proposals, PD registration, etc.). ALL
Certified Staff will use My Learning Plan to manage professional development activities and all
leave requests. (Non-certified staff will be brought on to the system at a later date.)
Aesop & My Learning Plan

There is a tab in My Learning Plan that links the two programs together. You do not have to go
into Aesop separately.
As always, please let Ms. Bostic know when you are going to be absent either by email or leave
slip.
Quick Notes
There is a My Learning Plan link in the Quick Links section of the DCS homepage.
All leave should be completed in My Learning Plan for all certified staff.
Upon return from any professional development activity that has been entered into My Learning
Plan, the person attending the professional development must go into the event and mark it
complete to activate the CEU process and reimbursements.
Upon return from an absence from work, the employee must go into My Learning Plan and mark
that absence complete, just as they do for professional development. This will allow one to verify
their absence and resubmit paperwork if there is a change in the absence details.
My Learning Plan Training Videos are available on the DCS website.
F LEX TIME
Flex Time is only for teachers and must be approved by the principal or assistant principal. Flex
time should be recorded in the FLEX notebook which will be located in Mrs. Hunter’s office.

Lesson Plans
All certified staff are expected to submit lesson plans prior to the beginning of each week.
Lesson plans must be kept up to date and accessible in Google Drive and shared with Mrs.

Note: If you create your document in Google Drive – as I do with the Tiger Cubs
Communication – you can make a copy of the plan you created and rename with the current date
and update the lesson plan without having to start from scratch each time. I will be glad to help
you get started.
Balanced Literacy
All teachers are expected to utilize Balanced Literacy strategies including Read Aloud with
Accountable Talk, Guided Reading, and Shared Reading, Readers’ Workshop. However, there
are other proven and effective methods for teaching reading that can be used in conjunction with
Balanced Literacy strategies.
STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math)
Engineering Design Process
Teachers will engage students in realistic learning

experiences using STEM and the Engineering Design
Process.
Instruction including STEM and the Engineering

Design Process will be integrated into our normal
instructional process to heighten learning and expand
interest and understanding. All teachers are expected
to utilize this process throughout the school year.
Resources, including lesson plans and one-on-one
support are available.
STEM will be integrated into instruction at least once

per week in all classrooms K-5.
16
STEM integration does not have to look like an engineering project. STEM lessons are open-
ended and require students to generate solutions to problems that may not necessarily have one
correct answer.
Nicole Murray with Duplin County Schools will be available for your support.

Common Instructional Framework (CIF)

The Common Instructional Framework is set of instructional strategies that promote teaching and
learning. These strategies include: Collaborative Group Work; Writing to Learn; Literacy
Groups; Questioning; Scaffolding; and Classroom Talk.
Collaborative Group Work Writing to Learn

• Students have clearly defined roles • Connects content to prior knowledge
• Students work in 2s, 3s, or 4s • Embed writing to learn in lesson plans and in
• Teacher circulates to assess students’ collaborative group work
understanding • First, middle, or end of class daily
• Teacher embeds collaborative group work in • Focuses content
lesson plans • Helps make content relevant
• Teacher establishes rules and expectations for • Helps teachers see level of understanding or
groups, listens and observes as groups work, confusion
redirect students if necessary and plush • Low-stakes writing (brainstorming, exit
students to deepen their conversations tickets, free-writes, etc.)
Teacher varies group configuration, length of • Utilize writing to learn as a formative
time in groups and group activities assessment tool
Literacy Groups Questioning
• Can use book or short texts • Encourages student questions
• Establish rules and expectations for groups • Engages students in relevance and rigor
• EVERY student has a voice and is • Provides plenty of wait/processing time
accountable for the learning • Reflects Bloom’s Taxonomy, encouraging
• Listen and observe a groups work higher levels of critical thinking
• Make each group responsible for creating a • Teacher uses questioning as a formative
product that reflects their learning assessment to gauge where students are in
• Provide choice for students/ differentiation their understanding of the topic
• Redirect students if necessary and push • Teacher uses wait time and pacing to
students to deepen their conversations encourage all students to engage
• Use roles, provide opportunities for students
to “shine”
Scaffolding Classroom Talk
• Makes excellent use of graphic organizers • ALL students are involved in discussion and
• Students make connections between their prior held accountable for learning focused, rich
knowledge and experience and new content discussions in small groups and /or whole
and skills group
• Teacher “frontloads” information BRIEFLY • Students engage in meaningful conversations
before assigning reading around the curriculum
• Teacher becomes a facilitator/ listener
• Teachers use protocols and instructional
strategies that support effective classroom talk

Health and Physical Education
Kenansville Elementary School seeks to provide an appropriate Health and Physical Education
Program in keeping with the North Carolina Standard Course of Study. A full-time physical
education teacher is provided for Kenansville Elementary. The PE teacher will teach students at
least once per week. The classroom teacher will direct PE activities on the other days of the
week.
Every student will be provided 30 minutes of physical activity per day. Daily physical activity
may not be withheld as punishment.
Use of Outside Support for Instructional Purposes

Teachers are encouraged to use appropriate resource persons, agencies, and/or organizations, to
aid in their instructional program. The office must be notified of all such activities for
calendaring purposes. You should provide the office with the name of the person coming, time
and date, agency, organization they represent, what group/grade will be involved where activity
will take place.
Parent Volunteers
Encourage parents to volunteer in support of student learning. All parent volunteers must
complete background check through an online Internet resource accessible in the front office.

12:00-12:30 Lunch
12:35-3:00 Scheduled Classes
You are encouraged to schedule time in the library for collaborative or curriculum relevant
lesson. Circulation times will be determined.
Circulation
Students may check out books as long as they do not have overdue items. If this happens, the
student will be sent back with his/her current information. If your student picked out a book that
you would like them to return, then please send them back to the media center to exchange their
book. Overdue notices will be provided for each grading period.
iPads
iPads may be checked out for the day, but they must be brought back at the end of each day.
You are responsible for checking them out; I will not check out these items to your students.
Your library barcode will be on a key ring in the library, and you can borrow individual iPads or
the whole cart. Please make sure that they are returned at the end of the day. Each iPad will have
a colored star and a number to indicate its cart and slot. This will help us to keep the carts
organized and account for all iPads. When you check out an entire cart, please make sure all are
37
accounted for before bringing them back to the media center. If you want to reserve a cart, you
may reserve one on the shared Google calendar.
Laptops
Laptops may be checked out for the day as well. These may be checked out in the same manner
listed above for the iPads.
Computer Work Orders

If you have a technology problem, send a note to the media center or send me a quick email
describing the problem. I’ll attempt to fix it; but, if I’m not able to, I’ll put in a work order for
one of the county technicians to come and take a look at it. Please understand that I will attempt
to help you as soon as possible, but I cannot leave children unattended in the media center.
A CADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT & RECOGNITION
Purpose: Even though no system yet devised is adequate for determining pupil progress, some
system of evaluation is necessary, not only to determine the individual pupil’s progress, but also
the effectiveness of the teacher’s techniques of instruction.
This evaluation should be a composite of knowledge accrued from an understanding of the

individual – his potential, his interests, his abilities and his experience. Student achievement
should be measured by teacher-made tests, class responses, classroom participation and
contribution, and homework. Conduct should not be used in determining subject-matter grades.
This should be reflected in the conduct grades.
End-of-grade and/or standardized test results are to be used in diagnosing student needs and
determining organizational and teaching effectiveness. They should not be considered in
deriving academic grades.
Elementary Honor Roll/Principal’s List (DCS Policy Code IHD Honor Rolls)
Honor rolls will be implemented beginning at grade 3. Elementary school honor rolls will be
determined at the end of each grading period. Students in grades 3-5 will be recognized on the
Principal's List if they have received all A's. Students in grades 3-5 will be recognized on the
Honor Roll if they have A’s and B’s but no C’s.
Terrific Tiger Cub

In order to be selected as a Terrific Tiger Cub, a student must adhere to the character traits of
trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring, and citizenship.

Parent/teacher conferences are scheduled following the completion of each nine-week grading
period. A parent may request a conference with their child’s teacher at any time during the
school year. Likewise, a teacher may sometimes find it necessary to request a special conference
with a parent.
Teachers are expected to make every effort to maintain contact with parents or guardians. Notes,
email communication, conferences, Open House attendance, etc. should be documented on a
Parent Contact Log. Parent Contact Logs are due to Mrs. Hunter at the end of each 9-week
grading period.

D ISCIPLINE
The principal, teachers, and assistants at Kenansville Elementary School want to ensure that each
child has the best educational opportunity possible. In order to help accomplish this goal, it is
our collective belief that the school needs to have a uniform discipline policy covering the
behavior of students while in attendance at school and on the school buses. Please be familiar
with the policies and be sure your students understand them.
Discipline – (School Discipline Policy)

The following is our School Discipline Policy. In order to guarantee your child and all the
students at Kenansville Elementary School, the excellent learning climate they deserve, we are
utilizing the following Discipline Plan. If you have any questions regarding our School
Discipline Policy, please contact the principal.
Our Philosophy
We believe all our students can behave appropriately in our classrooms. We will not tolerate any
student stopping us from teaching and/or any student from learning.
School Rules
1. Be in the right place at all times.
2. Be on time.
3. Be respectful to yourselves and others, the learning environment, and the property of others.
Tardy Policy
In accordance to DCS Board Policy 4400, students shall not be tardy to assigned classes or
homeroom. This means that the student must be in the classroom before the tardy bell rings.
Repeated tardies may result in violating the Student Code of Conduct and may include but are
not limited to the following:
1st offense: verbal warning from teacher
2nd offense: teacher notifies parent
3rd offense: office referral resulting in one day after school detention or one day of ISS
4th offense: verbal warning from teacher
5th offense: teacher notifies parent of excessive tardies (per DCS policy five or more tardies is
considered excessive.)
th
6 offense: office referral (additional after school detention or ISS.)
Any offense beyond 6: office referral (may result in up to two days of OSS)
Please note: Per DCS policy, a student will not be allowed to participate in any extra-
curricular activities during the period of in-school suspension

Other more serious offenses will be handled by the principal or designee. These offenses will
incur consequesces consistent with the severity of the offense, as explained in the Student Guide
and Code of Conduct. The principal or designee has the authority to assign appropriate
consequesces for violation of the Duplin County Schools Code of Conduct.
Suggested Consequences for Discipline Infractions

Please refer to the page 54 in the DCS 2017-2018 Student Guide and Code of Conduct.
Discipline Celebrations
The grade levels or/and individual classroom teachers will present rewards for good behaviors.
Assemblies will no longer be associated with discipline. Special assemblies will be for all
students. Honor roll and perfect attendance will be awarded in individual classrooms or in a
planned honor roll assembly.
Discipline Summary
A discipline summary will be maintained in the office regarding disciplinary offenses and
consequences.
Students Outside the Classroom/on Playground

Recognizing that the morning block of time is prime teaching time, please utilize your patio area
for a short morning break rather than the playground area.
Free Play Among Students and Supervision

In an attempt to avoid behavior problems, free play among students should be limited. All
students must be in an area in PLAIN VIEW of SUPERVISING STAFF. Students should not be
allowed back into the school building (except in emergencies). No student(s) should be left in the
classroom during scheduled activities outside unless under the supervision of an adult. Teachers
are responsible for the care and welfare of the students that they have in their charge.
44
Personal Items
Please let your students know not to bring personal items including toys and electronics to school
(except for use in a specified activity) or to bring excessive amounts of money to school. The
school cannot be held responsible for any such losses. Encourage your students and their parents
to mark plainly each child’s belongings including school supplies, coats, gloves, and the like to
avoid loss or exchange. All articles found on the school premises should be promptly taken to
the office where it may be returned upon proper identification. The school will not assume any
liability for lost articles.
(The school also encourages its employees not to bring personal items to school or excessive
amounts of money. The school will not assume any liability for lost items.)
A TTENDANCE
All K-12 students of Duplin County Schools are required to attend school on a regular and
continuous basis. The Public School Laws of North Carolina (G.S. 115C- 378) hold parents or
guardians legally responsible for ensuring the child’s attendance.
Each time a student is absent from school or any class, legal documentation (parental note,
doctor’s note, court appearance) is required upon the student’s return. This documentation should
state the reason for the absence and is necessary before an absence can be coded as “lawful”
(documentation).
Lawful and excused absences are limited to: (1) illness or injury; (2) quarantine (ordered by
health department); (3) death in the immediate family; (4) medical or dental appointments; (5)
court or administrative hearings; (6) religious observance (requires prior approval of principal or
his/her designee); or (7) educational opportunity (requires prior approval of principal); (8)
deployment activity (requires prior approval by principal or his/her designee); and (9) other. All
other absences are unexcused.
When a student has accumulated ten unexcused absences, the principal or social worker will
conduct an investigation to determine if the parent or guardian has made a good faith effort to
comply with the law. Dependent upon the outcome of the investigation, the principal or his/her
designee may notify the District Attorney or the Juvenile Intake Counselor.
Elementary (Grades K-5)

Students are expected to be present each of the 180 days in the school year. Students with
excessive absences are significantly increasing the risk of failure, which may result in retention.
When total absences (unexcused) exceed ten days per year, further documentation may be
required (doctor’s statement, court order, etc.). No more than five (5) parental notes will be
accepted per year for absences before further documentation is required. Absences not
documented will be referred to the appropriate authorities. Any student who misses more than
ten days per year will have the opportunity to appeal their absenteeism at the local school.
