PBIS  was introduced to our students through lessons plans and consistent modeling.  PBIS stands for Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports.  We have adopted this program to encourage good behavior and consider this as important as academics.  The key to PBIS is prevention, not punishment.   Expectations for Responsibility, Empathy, and Respect - The 3B's for Arrival/Dismissal, Hallways, Lunchroom, Church, Bathrooms, Recess Yard, and Transitions have been presented to the student body and the different matrices are displayed and visible throughout both buildings. "Cardinal Cash" will be used by all teachers and administration when a student is caught showing one of The Three B's outside the classroom.  Teachers will continue to use their own unique reward systems in their classrooms.

The Wednesday Card has been replaced with the Conduct Calendar.  This is a blank Calendar that will travel with the students during their day.  Any infractions will be recorded on it and tracked on Option C.  Students are expected to bring their Conduct Calendars home every Thursday night for a parent signature (no initials) and are to be returned to school on Friday.

1:1 CHROMEBOOKS ARE A WELCOME EDITION FOR GRADES 5 TO 8 THIS YEAR.  THESE CHROMEBOOKS WILL BE STORED IN THE CLASSROOM AND STUDENTS WILL TRAVEL WITH THEM TO THEIR DIFFERENT CLASSES.
