BEHAVIOR STANDARDS
Don Juan Avila Middle School has established high standards for our students, both academically and behaviorally.  In order to attain these standards, students are expected to show respect toward one another and all adults.  This will help us maintain a safe and positive learning environment.  The following standards are intended to encourage all students to behave in a manner that will be a credit to themselves, their parents, and Don Juan Avila Middle School.
