Jr. High Incentive Program
In
keeping with school goals to make students aware of their behavior, to maximize
teacher/student relationships, and to improve student performance, the junior
high works with an incentive program.
Staff
will have stickers to reward students. Students can be rewarded for good
behavior, good workmanship, appropriate attitudes, spontaneous helpfulness or
any behavior that might be considered above and beyond the ordinary. Obviously,
all good behaviors and deeds will be impossible to credit. The stickers will be
placed in a ÒbankÓ. Students will have the opportunity to Òcash inÓ their
stickers for items in the ÒstoreÓ.
In
addition, students will have the opportunity to participate in special events
ending each quarter. Students will be able to participate if they have had no
suspensions or restricted environment time and no more than 1 office detention,
and no unexcused absences for the quarter.
Punch
cards are a part of our incentive program. Each student will be given a punch card
at the beginning of every quarter. Each time a student fails to complete a
homework assignment, the studentÕs card will be punched. After 5 punches on the
card, the student will receive an office morning detention. For each subsequent
punch, the child will receive an office morning detention. Each student can only receive one punch
per class hour.
