2Administrators,
teachers
and
staff,
In
an
effort
to
increase
teacher
and
school
communication
to
parents
and
to
encourage
early
intervention
in
directing
and
shaping
student
behavior
we
have
created
a
uniform
School
Discipline
Referral
Form.
The
form
has
been
created
through
a
joint
effort
between
the
Chicago
Teachers
Union
and
the
Chicago
Public
Schools
(CPS).
It
is
our
collective
goal
to
reduce
the
number
and
frequency
of
student
discipline
referrals
by
identifying
minor
inappropriate
student
behavior
before
it
escalates
and
by
encouraging
early
reporting
of
such
behavior
to
parents
so
that
they
may
work
with
teachers
to
correct
the
behaviors
before
invoking
the
Student
Code
of
Conduct
(SCC).
The
form
should
be
used
when
students
engage
in
minor
inappropriate
misconduct,
which
may
not
rise
to
the
level
of
a
violation
of
the
SCC.
Since
early
intervention
is
the
key
to
reducing
the
number
of
disciplinary
events,
administrators
should
mail
a
copy
of
this
form
to
parents
to
inform
them
of
patterns
of
minor
acts
of
misconduct
before
they
become
violations
of
the
SCC.
Also,
teachers
and
staff
members
should
receive
a
completed
copy
of
the
form
from
the
administrator
in
charge
of
discipline
to
inform
them
of
what
action
was
taken
as
a
result
of
the
referral.
If
the
new
CPS
School
Discipline
Referral
Form
is
used
properly
it
should
help
to
unify
the
CPS
discipline
process,
reduce
discipline
actions,
and
foster
early
communication
between
parents
and
teachers.
The
form
must
be
used
by
all
CPS
elementary
and
high
schools.
While
the
form
must
not
supplant
the
Student
Code
of
Conduct
or
replace
CPS
Misconduct
Reports,
it
should
replace
in‐house
discipline
referral
forms
that
are
being
used
in
many
schools
throughout
the
district.
