Copeland PBIS

This month we will be focusing on fairness. We are working with our students on being respectful by playing fairly which means taking turns, sharing, and following the rules while playing games. Our students are learning how being fair can also include listening attentively to another person’s point of view. Throughout the building, our Colts are understanding that fairness is also accepting consequences for poor choices. Please have conversations with your child about how they can show fairness at Copeland, home, and in the community. We are so proud of our Colts for showing they CARE by:

Being Consistent

Being Accountable

Being Respectful

Being Engaged

We appreciate your support in our Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports in our school.

We have created a matrix that explains our school wide behavior expectations. You will see these rules posted throughout our school. Your child learned these expectations the first week of school. Below is a copy of our school’s PBIS matrix.

Our incentive for the first grading period is going to be a smencil scented pencil. Your child can purchase one smencil for 30 CARE cash if they choose. The deadline to purchase is TBD. Your child can purchase this from their homeroom teacher. Below is an example.

Your child can also save up to purchase our end of year Beach Bash. This will cost 100 CARE cash. Students will be using financial literacy to make decisions about monthly purchases. They will be able to decide if they want to save for Beach Bash first, or make monthly purchases while saving the rest of their CARE cash to go towards the end of year event. Beach Bash is an activity that will happen on May 23rd, and will take place during your child’s PEAM time on this day. If your child does not save enough CARE cash OR chooses not to purchase Beach Bash, they will have an alternate activity to participate in during their PEAM time on this particular day.
