  4. Cox Elementary Mission Statement Cox Elementary is committed to creating a culture of high achievement and performance for all learners, both students and staff, while fostering positive relationships within our school community.

  5. What is Love and Logic? Loveallows children to grow through their mistakes. Logic allows children to live with the consequences of their choices. The Love and Logic process is as follows: • Shared control: Gain control by giving away the control you don’t need. • Shared thinking and decision-making: Provide opportunities for the child to do the greatest amount of thinking and decision-making. • Equal shares of consequences with empathy: An absence of anger causes a child to think and learn from his/her mistakes. • Maintain the child’s self-concept: Increased self-concept leads to improved behavior and improved achievement. • To learn more about Love and Logic, please visit their website at: www.loveandlogic.com.

  6. Wayne A. Cox Elementary Cougars’ Plan for Success • We will treat each other with respect. • If you have or create a problem, youwill be asked to solve it. • If you have trouble solving the problem, or choose not to, we will do something. • What we do will depend on each person and the unique situation.

  7. Elementary Student Dress Code According to the NISD 2014-15 Student Handbook and Code of Conduct, students are required to have safe shoes for physical education and recess every day. Sandals must have a strap on the heel; flip flops do not meet dress code. (Page 36) Flip flops, open-toed shoes, platform shoes, crocks, and bootsare unsafe for PE and recess. Elementary dress and grooming guidelines can be found on pages 36 of the NISD Student Handbook and Code of Conduct.

  8. Grades Online A letter was sent home for each student with a Home Access Center (HAC) login and password. Progress reports and report cards for students in grades 1-5 are viewed online through the HAC. If you have not received a HAC letter, please email us at: coxelem@nisdtx.org.
