Starting from the morning of Tuesday, 14/2/956. The committee also decided to deduct twenty points from the conduct average of each of these three students because they were the primary causes of the acts disturbing the order that occurred in the class on that day and on many occasions in the past, but in view of the harm that depriving them of school attendance would cause, as it leads to depriving them from participating in the mid-year exam, and in view of the pleas of their parents and out of mercy for them, it has been decided to suspend the execution of the first part of the penalty and suffice with deducting twenty points from their conduct average. Second - The committee also decided to impose the penalty of a recorded reprimand with a deduction of ten points from the conduct average of each of: (1) Nassim (Latif) Victor, (2) Ghazi Daoud Haskeel, (3) Sabah Yaqub Rashti, (4) Sabah Elias Aqirab. Note that the good conduct of the students Sabah Yaqub Rashti and Sabah Elias Aqirab in the past was taken into account, and no violation has been issued by them since the beginning of this school year until now, so their punishment was mitigated. Third - Twenty points were previously deducted from the conduct average of the student Fuad Khadouri Salem on 16/11/955 and accordingly, the total points deducted from his conduct average has reached forty points, and it was also previously deducted from the conduct average of the student Nassim (Latif) Victor five points on 4/11/955 and accordingly, the total points deducted from his conduct average has reached fifteen points. A student is considered to have failed his grade if 51% or more is deducted from his conduct points.
