Check In- Check Out
Check In- Check Out
(CICO)
(CICO)
The purpose of the Check In- Check Out is to avoid recurring incidents and discipline referral forms. All students are provided with universal (Tier one) supports, and those in need of secondary level (Tier two) supports are provided with behavior support strategies in addition to the universal supports. The Check In- Check Out program is not a form of punishment for students, but is viewed as a positive intervention to help students boost self awareness of their school day.
Students using the Check In- Check Out program are given a daily chart that displays expectations they are striving to meet, as well as a daily goal. Throughout their school day, teachers will give students frequent feedback on their goals. The expectations are connected to Odyssey’s school rules (Be Safe, Be Respectful, Be Responsible, and Be Honest). Basic features of the Check In- Check Out program include:
- A positive Check In with an adult in the morning to set students up for a successful school day.
- Regular feedback and reinforcement from teachers.
- Positive family component (home check in)
- Daily performance data used to evaluate progress (every 6 weeks).
- Goal-setting is a key component of this procedure.

Social Skills
The purpose of social skills is to provide additional assistance to students in the skills we use to communicate and interact with peers and adults, both verbally and non-verbally , through our words and body language.
Students in social skills may develop their social competencies to improve social awareness, both of themselves and others, social-emotional understanding, self-regulation, perspective taking, and executive functioning skills. These skills will help your child learn throughout their school day during individual, partner and group work, and during whole group instruction, both in and outside their classrooms.
Students in social skills typically meet in a small group once a week for thirty minutes. Lessons are typically teacher created based on students individual needs.
