Our middle school and high school students wrapped up the month with exciting PBIS celebrations just in time for spring break!
PBIS, or Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports, helps create a safe, respectful, and positive environment for everyone. By following our PRIDE expectations of Positivity, Respect, Integrity, Dependability, and Effort, students are recognized for making great choices every day.
To celebrate, students were able to choose from a variety of fun activities. At the high school, students enjoyed movies, made ice cream sundaes, spent time outside with sidewalk chalk, and more. Middle school students had the chance to enjoy outdoor recess, play in the gym, participate in team building activities, spend time with friends, and more.
These celebrations are a great way to recognize positive behavior, build community, and give students something to look forward to as they continue making great choices.
Thank you to our middle school and high school staff for supporting and making these celebrations possible. A big shoutout to Ms. Simmons and Mr. Beck for organizing our monthly PBIS celebrations and for all of the hard work they put in to make these experiences so meaningful for our students!
