Policies and Planning

"Little Flower School admits students of any race, color, sex or national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school.  It does not discriminate based on race, color, sex or national and ethnic origin in the administration of its education policies, admission policies, scholarships and loan programs, and athletic and school administered programs.  Our schools do reserve all their rights as religious entities in accord with the teachings of the Catholic Church, the protections of the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, and the Illinois Religious Freedom Restoration Act 775 ILCS 35/.

Little Flower Catholic School attempts to provide a safe environment for all individuals.  Bullying and cyber bullying are prohibited at Little Flower School.  Bullying is defined as any sever or pervasive physical or verbal act or conduct made in writing or electronically directed toward a student which can result in the following:

• Placing the student in a reasonable fear of harm to the student’s person or property
• Causing a substantially detrimental effect on the student’s physical or mental health
• Substantially interfering with the student’s academic performance
• Substantially interfering with the student’s ability to participate or benefit from school activities.

Verbal or written threats made against the physical or emotional well-being of any individual are taken very seriously.  Students making such threats (seriously, in jest, or online) face detention, suspension, and/or expulsion at the discretion of the administration.
