PBIS Focus: Respect

To admire and have a high opinion of someone.

Everyone makes mistakes. You make mistakes. Your friends make mistakes. Just because someone makes a mistake doesn't make him or her a lesser person. It makes him or her human.

Teachers, please be on the lookout for students demonstrating Respect. Give out SOAR stickers for students showing respect!

Reminders from Admin:

  • Turn in your SOAR cards to the front office for Raffle Prizes. Drawing will be this Friday!
