The Gayman Code of Conduct
Thank you to parents who have already provided feedback for the Gayman Code of Conduct.
As you know, "The Gayman 5": Respect, Responsibility, Kindness, Cooperation, and Perseverance are the foundation of a child's character. This Code of Conduct will serve as a positive reminder about behavioral expectations. For over a year, our staff and students have been developing this document, and now it is your turn. Please consider providing feedback by Friday, March 20th, through this survey: Feedback on the Code of Conduct.
All parent responses will be shared with the teachers and children of Gayman Elementary School. Click here to access The Gayman Elementary School Code of Conduct DRAFT.
Thank you for your partnership,
Kelly Carter
