Congratulations to our hardworking and dedicated faculty, staff, and students for their continuous contribution to the growth and success of our school.
School attendance is one key to success at school and is defined as attending school daily and on time. Additionally, providing incentives that recognize positive behaviors contribute to keeping students in school and helps improve the climate for learning.
Our restorative justice program, implemented during the 21-22 school year, uses restorative approaches that support the idea that when we feel part of a supportive community, we respect others in that community and become accountable to it. This creates a sense of community through daily or weekly circles in WIN or in any class.
Let’s continue to promote positive attendance and behavior initiatives throughout this school year!🏆
