Booth-Fickett K-8 Math & Science Magnet is
A Respect+ School
Booth-Fickett K-8 Math & Science Magnet is
A Respect+ School
What does that mean?
It means you respect others because you respect yourself.
Respect is not given because it is earned…respect is given
because we hold ourselves to the standards that we expect in
others.
At Booth-Fickett we will use “Zero Tolerance” to keep the
atmosphere of a Respect+ School
-When a student is given a directive by any adult, he/she is
expected to immediately comply without any defiance.
-Every behavior will be addressed, an appropriate
consequence will be assigned, and parents will be notified.
-The entire Booth-Fickett community will use a Language of
Respect in school with all community members.
5
No child can be viewed as unable to succeed and
there must exist an unwavering passion in the hearts
and minds of each of us that ensures that every
student learns regardless of the obstacles that he or
she faces in their personal life. The moment we stop
believing that all students can and must learn is the
moment we begin the process of collaborative
failure. We begin to lose sight of the fact that we
make a difference in every student’s life, and, before
we know it, we become part of the problem.

goal is to insure that all students reach their
full academic potential. To be a successful
student, it is important that you are prepared
and attend all classes regularly and promptly.
Academic achievement and responsibility are
priorities.
“Rigor is creating a positive environment in

high levels, each student is supported so
he/she can learn at high levels, and each
student demonstrates these expectations
through the production of high quality work.”

PASSING PERIODS
Students who are continually disruptive may

of teachers and administrators as provided by
A.R.S. 15-841.A.2.
The schedule for students in grades 6-8 allows

during the passing period is important to the
general welfare of all students. Students are
expected to WALK to the next class and to be
ON TIME. Pushing, shoving, tripping, or
running in the halls, excessive noise and the
use if inappropriate languages is not
acceptable and will not be tolerated. It is

during passing period.
Major offenses and infractions may result in
automatic suspension. In cases of an at-home
suspension,
the
teachers
will
provide
classroom work. The purpose of consequences
is to teach students to make positive choices,
to be responsible for their own behavior, and
to alleviate further classroom disruption. See
