We are so fortunate this year to have a dedicated group of reading buddies from our middle school. These awesome students can be found in our Kindergarten and first grade classrooms before school starts every morning. They patiently listen to their young buddies read, and encourage them to keep growing and improving as readers. Kudos to all of them, and the difference they are making in the lives of these young readers!

PBIS Ice Cream Celebration
Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports is a program we are rolling out school wide to promote positive behaviors and mindset.
Last year we established voice level expectations.
This year we're set to roll out expectations for our hallways, cafe, recess, busses, and bathrooms.
When teachers notice students following these expectations they are given Cat Cash which enforces positive expectations.
Cat Cash is collected school wide with a goal set and once reached all students are awarded a prize.
At the end of each month several students and a teacher are randomly selected and awarded a prize.
As a reward for succeeding at accomplishing our hallway expectations were served ice cream by Mr Ross in a wig...
Or is that his natural color?...
