The Discipline module makes it simple to log, manage, and report student behavior, giving you the tools you need to stay organized, meet state reporting requirements, and communicate effectively with families. With flexible options to customize discipline actions and behaviors, your school can maintain consistent records while tailoring the system to your policies—all without extra headaches or paperwork.

To get started, log in to jmc Office and head to Discipline to customize problem behaviors and actions, update discipline records and run reports.

Customizing Problem Behaviors and Actions

Tailor the Discipline module to match your school’s policies by creating and managing your own list of problem behaviors and disciplinary actions. With customizable options, your team can ensure consistency while addressing the unique needs of your school community.

  • Edit Problem Behaviors: a list of predefined discipline problem behaviors supplied by your state department of Education used for state reporting as well as a customizable user defined list of problem behaviors for implementing your school's behavior policies

  • Edit Actions: a list of actions your school takes as a result of a problem behavior including state predefined actions used for state reporting as well as customizable user defined actions for implementing your school's behavior policies
