Our school community has identified the following principles of behaviour to teach and promote our high standards of responsible behaviour: Courtesy, Commitment, Cooperation and Common sense.
Below are examples of what these PBL expectations look like for students across the school. In addition, each classroom will have their own set of examples to help students and visitors understand the expectations and meet the standards we hold for everyone at Kingston State College.
