Middlebury Union Middle School - CRRS and Write-Ups

CRRS and Write-Ups

At the beginning of every school year, each student receives a free Powerbook, which is a daily planner with every subject written in it for them to right down their homework in. In the front of the book, is the CRRS, or Code of Rights and Responsibilities for Students. The CRRS outlines the rules and punishments for almost every possible offense. At the beginning of 7th grade, students receive a sheet that they must take home along with their Powerbook, and get signed by them and their parents, saying that they have read, understand, and are willing to abide by the Code. If a student breaks a minor rule, such as exchanging insults or play fighting, the victim or a bystander may "Write-Up" the Aggressor or Aggressors. Write-ups send the case to Student Court, a jury of 5 or 6 students overseen by the guidance councilors that talk to witnesses and involved parties and can administer fair disciplinary action.
