Rights & Responsibilities

Together, students, parents*, teachers, staff and administrators share the responsibility in creating and sustaining an environment that enhances student achievement and well-being in the Northshore School District. The Student Rights and Responsibilities Handbook addresses:

  • Conduct which may require corrective action
  • Responsibilities of administrators and teachers to implement corrective action, which includes behavioral supports and interventions that promote safety and support student success

Please read these Rights and Responsibilities and develop a thorough understanding of the details. By following the Rights and Responsibilities, you can help our school district become a safer and more supportive environment for the students and staff.
