RHS Scheduling Team

A couple of weeks ago students started receiving PBIS Raffle Tickets for Committing to the R! When a teacher notices a student is Respectful, Ready, or Responsible, they give that student a raffle ticket and the student gets to choose which raffle they want to enter. Currently, we have three live raffles – an extra day of Hour Lunch, free football tickets for the game Friday Night, and a Free Parking Spot (special for our Seniors this semester!). We will choose winners weekly, starting with our first pull by Mrs. Miley for an extra “hour lunch” this week! Friday morning, we will choose two winners for free football tickets for our game against Alpharetta. Prizes and options will be changing randomly, so students will have many different options for prizes throughout the school year. We are so excited about recognizing our students for their positive contributions and Committing to the R!

For more information about our P.B.I.S Implementation and Reward System, please contact Melissa Little, Assistant Principal.
