Each Student will start off with 4 G unlimited service which will be the clear level of the behavior plan. With each offense, the service level will drop down. For instance, the first offense which is a verbal warning will bring the student’s service level down to 3 G level. The Next offense would be a time-out period of five minutes to calm down. The offense will bring the service down to 2 G level service. The next offense will be a call home, which will bring the service down to G level service. The next offense will be a student/teacher contract, which would bring the service down to roaming level services. The last and final offense will be a write up and a trip to the Principal's office, this will terminate the student’s service with Terry’s Mobile service.
