Please read carefully the following expectations and then sign the Statement of Commitment:

  • We understand that this student must strive for academic excellence.
  • We understand that this student will be given opportunities for a variety of tutorial assistance to maintain / achieve academic excellence.  It is the responsibility of this student and parent to request that assistance, when needed.
  • We understand that this student is expected to attend school every day, to arrive promptly, and to remain at school throughout the scheduled hours.
  • We understand that this student is to cooperate and conduct himself / herself with teachers, staff, and classmates in a manner showing respect for all persons.  This student must adhere to the Code of Student Conduct and the school's attendance policies.
  • We understand that this student must follow the school dress code, which may differ from other county school dress codes.
  • We understand that this student is to complete all required assignments, including homework.  We understand that the assignments must be on time and of appropriate quality to be accepted by the teacher and to receive full credit.
  • We understand that this student is to respect and care for all personal and school supplies, property, equipment, and textbooks.
  • We understand that the parents must be supportive of this student and the IB program by providing time and a place for this student to study at home, and by participating in school meetings, conferences, and other activities.

    • Ridgeview High School is committed to all students.  The purpose of this Commitment Agreement is to recognize that this student and parent understand that their involvement in the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Program is also one of commitment.

    The privilege of attending the IB program rests upon the personal responsibility of this student and the parents.  In consideration of the Clay County School Board offering this traditional approach to education, we agree that this student will adhere to the expectations in order to remain enrolled in the International Baccalaureate Diploma Program.

    We understand that Clay County Schools and the International Baccalaureate Organization maintain high expectations for individual effort and student behavior.  We are committed to these standards.  Attending this IB program is a privilege, not a right.  As such, we understand that all students are expected to exhibit exemplary behavior.

    If this student participates in the PIB / IB program at RHS on a Special Pupil Assignment (SPA) attendance waiver from the CCSB, we understand that document must be renewed annually.

    We understand that if at such time this student chooses to leave or is removed from the PIB/IB Diploma Program, any SPA attendance waiver may be revoked immediately and the student may be reassigned to the zoned school.

    We agree that this student will attend the Preliminary International Baccalaureate (PIB) Program for a minimum of one (1) full year.
