School Events and Support
Thank you for taking the time to review expected behavior with your student prior to last night's game. We felt that the students attempted to comply with our expectations and rules well and we appreciate the effort to respect the game, community, and school grounds. Please continue to reiterate these expectations so that students and families can enjoy these events.
It was a Great Day for A XC Meet in Strongsville!

Behavior Reminders
The Behavior Reminders are a universal system that is in place to try and promote the positive behaviors that we want to see out of our students. These positive behaviors were reviewed in class, our expectation assemblies and in detail during students IE time. In support of this system and in creating a positive school culture, it is also our goal to identify positive behaviors that your student is doing as well. This is a proactive system implemented to help your student. This is not formal discipline, rather a reminder to students to change behavior prior to creating habits that may progress into major discipline.
Minor behaviors may include: disrupting class, dress code violations, inappropriate use of technology, inappropriate language, noncompliance/refusal to work, being tardy, or being unprepared for class. Parents will be notified via email to include you in our attempt to remind our students of expected behavior and give you the option to reiterate and support this at home. Students can receive 4 Reminders before they are referred to the office, and on the 5th situation administration may then issue a consequence. Thank you for your support.
