[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is the school cloistered in atmosphere?  And what type of behavior is considered unacceptable and scolded - and do we mean real scolding, or are kids given an example of what they should do, and then get support as they try, if at first it is difficult?[/quote]

I'm not the poster who used the word "cloistered," but I'm trying to understand what s/he meant.  Maybe sheltered?  That's probably true.

As for scolding, DC used to get in trouble from time to time in the early grades.  I thought that the teachers were reasonable.  They explained why what he did was wrong, and either put him in the "balcony seats," write a note of apology, and just once got sent to the division director.  They didn't humiliate him in any way, but he hated being disciplined so he got his act together quickly.

He's a well-behaved and respectful kid -- never gets in trouble now and loves gonig to school.  I'm glad that the teachers made the effort to correct his behavior without shaming him, or driving the spirit and spark out of him.  [/quote]
