The A-G Student of the Week is Santiago Chavarro,
nominated by Mrs. Barrientos.
Santiago is a wonderful example of Responsibility. Any time he is in class he gives 120% of his effort, attention and heart to every lesson. It doesn't matter if the information is new and difficult to him, he makes sure to ask questions to ensure he can be successful. When he is absent, he will not make excuses or rely on extra time, he always inquires ahead of time if possible for what he might miss to make sure he does not fall behind. - Maria Barrientos
The H-O Student of the Week is Isabela Hernandez,
nominated by Mr. Walters.
Isabela is great to have in class and to know as a person. She is enthusiastic. She is polite and she is friendly. She gives max effort in class. She has tried really hard to improve in social studies. - Terrence Walters
The P-Z Student of the Week is Michael Strozik,
nominated by Mr. Startz.
Michael says good morning every day and chooses to use zero period to continue working on his art assignments. - Mr. Startz
PBIS Donations
PBIS Expectations & Rewards - PBIS stands for Positive Behavioral Interventions & Supports. One large piece is explaining expectations upfront. Another piece is rewarding students when we see those focused on positive behaviors. 3 campus-wide expectations posters (CLICK HERE) are placed throughout the campus. Teachers will take time during the first day or two to explain these rules in detail and help students understand what they look like. Our campus is also implementing new software (Classcraft) to encourage students to earn rewards and use them in many different ways. Here is a short video on how Classcraft works: https://youtu.be/M2uqd9ZOMaw. Please have your child download the app on their device and log into Classlink on the LCISD webpage (at the top) to start to explore what this is all about. They do NOT need a phone to do this. It can be done on a laptop or computer.
Parents if you are interested in donating to the PBIS school store the following list is a great start. We accept all donations both monetary and items.
We are excited to announce that H-E-B is a proud sponsor of the PBIS Store at Leaman.
If your company would like to sponsor the store, please contact Mr. Kracker, Mr. Gilmore or Ms. Session for more information.
