Responsibility
Character Strong Theme for October
Our focus this month is on Responsibility! This is a big word, but an important one. Responsibility means taking action and understanding the impact of our choices. This can mean lots of things, but mostly it's about choosing actions that lead to good outcomes-like caring for a pet, turning in your work, being Kind to a new student, or standing up for what is right.
FALL BREAK
No school from October 6, 2023 through October 13, 2023. Students will return to school on October 16, 2023.
PBIS Positive Behavior Intervention System
PBIS Card
When your child gets a PBIS card, teachers will put them in a weekly drawing for recognition.
Attendance Hawk
Feathers will make our Hawks colorful when our classrooms have 100% or 85% attendance.
What does PBIS look like for 2nd Quarter?
Teachers will review Hudlow's PBIS Matrix for all learning areas. Please review the attached pictures with your child. Teachers and staff will award students that are demonstrating Kindness, Respect, Responsibility, and safe behaviors. Students will have multiple opportunities to demonstrate these behaviors. They will be reminded and awarded for them. At the end of the quarter, the classroom with 30 feathers for attendance, will be awarded a popcorn party. Students will also have multiple opportunities to put their PBIS cards into a container in the office. If they get their card pulled at flagpole on Monday, they will be able to get a prize from the PBIS store.
