Student Code of Conduct 2025-2026

Gilchrist County Schools is committed to fostering a safe, positive, and productive learning environment for all students. As part of this ongoing commitment, we are in the process of updating the Student Code of Conduct for the 2025-2026 school year. The Student Code of Conduct is a critical document that outlines the expectations for student behavior, promotes respect, and ensures a secure environment conducive to learning. We believe that collaboration and community input are essential in developing a code that effectively serves our students, staff, and families. We invite all parents, guardians, students, staff members, and community stakeholders to review the proposed revisions to the 2025-2026 Student Code of Conduct. Your feedback is invaluable as we work to create a comprehensive and equitable policy that reflects the values of our community.
