The Prefect of Discipline (POD) serves as the administrator responsible for overseeing all matters related to student discipline within the school. This office ensures that standards of conduct are upheld and that student behavior aligns with the school’s policies and values.

Core Responsibilities:

  • Overseeing Student Behavior: They make sure students follow school rules and maintain a good, orderly environment. This includes supervising student conduct during school activities, whether they’re on or out of campus.
  • Communicating with Everyone: They are the main point of contact between the school president, teachers, students, and parents regarding discipline issues.
  • Enforcing School Rules: They are in charge of implementing the rules outlined in the Student Handbook.
  • Handling Disciplinary Cases: They keep detailed records of students who have disciplinary problems or are on academic probation. They also contact families when a student has issues like being late, absent, or suspended.
  • Conducting Investigations: When there are serious rule violations, the POD investigates the situation. They then lead the Disciplinary Board, which recommends a course of action to the school president.
  • Managing the Office: They also handle the administrative side of things, like preparing the annual budget for their office.
