2008-2009 Rules for Parents and Guardians

Only one guardian is allowed for every pupil and he/she is supposed to stay either at the canteen or waiting areas.


READING AND SIGNING ALL NEWSLETTERS IS OBLIGATORY, AS STATED IN THE LEGALLY BINDING ENROLLMENT FORM & CONTRACT. UPDATED POSTS ON BILLBOARDS AROUND THE CAMPUS AND CANTEEN SHOULD ALSO BE READ BY PARENTS & GUARDIANS AS WELL AS PUPILS. Problems will always arise if notices, newsletters and memos from the Administration are not read and followed. Nobody is exempted from campus rules & regulations. Just as we do our part in giving our best for the academic and character formation of your children, so should you do your part as well. We are teaching your children to behave and follow rules. Grown-ups should set the example for young ones IN AND OUT OF THE CAMPUS.


Decency in action, words, and clothing is mandatory for all who are within the campus. We are very particular about the following: Shouting, laughing/talking/whistling/singing LOUDLY, private sound systems that can be heard by others, putting feet on chairs/tables/benches, cutting toe/finger nails, CREATING A SCANDAL IN WHATEVER FORM, entering the campus under the influence of drugs or alcohol, bringing deadly weapons, DISRESPECT & ARROGANCE TO SCHOOL PERSONNEL, TEACHERS, SECURITY GUARDS AND PERSONS BELONGING TO THE ADMINISTRATION, entering classrooms without permission from the Administration, tampering with exercises/test papers/report cards/certifications, malicious mischief and grave misconduct like telling jokes in a very bad or insulting taste, RUMOR MONGERING, CREATING INTRIGUES, SPREADING LIES, LIBEL, SLANDER, ALWAYS COMPLAINING TO OTHERS INSTEAD OF GOING TO THE OFFICE, THUS CREATING A VERY NEGATIVE ATMOSPHERE, WHETHER AT THE CANTEEN OR ANYWHERE ELSE, vandalism, grave threat to any person, lewd or immoral acts, bringing of indecent or pornographic materials, UNSOLICITED MEDDLING WITH THE AFFAIRS OF THE FACULTY OR ADMINISTRATION, will be dealt with accordingly (legal actions, if necessary). Any person can be banned from entering a private school campus if a major rule or norm would be blatantly broken. The enrollment of your children here is voluntary and not coerced or forced. You must therefore abide and accept our school policies.


Nevertheless, rest assured that whatever parents or guardians might do against school policies, YOUR CHILD WILL NOT SUFFER ANY CONSEQUENCE. Just as there is no room for favoritism here, so is there absolutely no place for REVENGE or PICKING ON CHILDREN. THIS PRACTICE OF OUR SCHOOL IS PROVEN THROUGH THE YEARS. Blue Danube is here to support, guide and educate pupils. Our priority will always be your children. All others are secondary.


As per school policies, TEACHERS, PERSONNEL, SECURITY GUARDS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO CHAT OR ENTER INTO LONG PRIVATE CONVERSATIONS WITH PARENTS OR GUARDIANS. This is a preventive measure against possible favoritism, envy, jealousy, false accusations and malicious thoughts – for short, to avoid eventual problems that might arise from such situations. In the same manner, PARENTS AND GUARDIANS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO CONFRONT, ARGUE WITH OR VERBALLY ATTACK ANY TEACHER, PERSONNEL OR SCHOOL AUTHORITY.


FIGHTING OR QUARRELING AMONG ADULTS WITHIN THE CAMPUS IS ABSOLUTELY AGAINST OUR POLICY OF HARMONY AND DECENCY. OUR SCHOOL IS NOT THE PROPER VENUE TO SOLVE PERSONAL PROBLEMS THAT HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE EDUCATION OF YOUR CHILDREN.


All matters will be discussed intelligently, objectively and decently at the Guidance Counseling Office if the problems have something to do with our pupils. We strictly deal with facts and evidences only. Not with opinions or personal whims. Blue Danube has its clear regulations and policies.


NEVER EVER CALL A TEACHER OR ANY PERSON WITHIN THE ADMINISTRATION “INENG; HIJA, TOTOY OR HIJO”. Though young, our team is a team of professionals. Thus, due respect should be given to them.


If you have guests, please notify the office. Our “ONE PUPIL – ONE GUARDIAN” rule still stands.


The canteen is privately managed and is not run by Blue Danube. All matters pertaining thereto should be addressed to the canteen management. Only in matters of non-compliance with school policies within the canteen will the Administration step-in. Otherwise, our concentration and focus remain on the education of pupils.
