-
This month we devote ourselves to engage in prayer on a greater level, and participate in reciting the rosary. It is with these actions which will allow us to take a break from our lives and fine peace. It will be easy to become distracted or tempted to draw away from Him, especially with the nicer weather and end of the year approaching, however, we can not cause them to be excuses. Sprout in these final weeks, both as a student and individual of the Lord.
With Best,

PBIS:
This past May, the PBIS program was introduced to our students through lesson 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 3 B'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 in the corresponding areas. "Cardinal Cash" will be used by all teachers and administration when a student is caught showing one of the 3 B's outside of 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 student 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 signature (no initials) and are to be returned to school on Friday.
