PBIS is a 10-year district-wide initiative to make school a place where students feel they belong and feel safe. Each school is to define the desired behaviors and expectations they have for each student. At Emery Park Elementary, we desire all our students to be Viking Strong!
Viking Strong stands for the following: Being Respectful, Responsible, Safe and Focused & Committed to Learning. Students who demonstrate these qualities in all areas in school will be recognized for their positive behavior. Recognition may include but is not limited to receiving Viking Bucks to participate in monthly activities with the principal, and Star Student.
As part of defining our expectations, we have developed a matrix to define specific and key behaviors we want our students to embody and display at various locations on campus. When student's display these behaviors, they are awarded and recognized with a Viking Bucks, which can be used to either spend at the Viking Store.
