3 "B" Emergencies
Thanks to Victoria Smith at Kinder Korner

When Mrs. Teague is busy with another student, answering the phone, talking to another teacher, talking to a parent or teaching a lesson, students should not interupt unless they are having a 3 "B" Emergency. These emergencies are things that need to be dealt with right away. This also helps keep tattling to a minimum. The three emergencies are:
  1. Bathroom- A student who desparately needs to go.
  2. Barf- A student who thinks they may vomit.
  3. Blood- A student who has been injured and is bleeding.


Consequences

For choosing not to follow the rules, students face the following consequences:
  1. A warning from the teacher.
  2. 5 minutes away from the group.
  3. 5 minutes at the desk in the hall.
  4. A referral to stay in at lunch.
  5. A phone call home and a possible referral to the principal.
