Thompson's school has a program that rewards appropriate behavior by publicly acknowledging good decisions. Expectations and rules are posted throughout the school to remind students to work towards positive behaviors. The primary areas that are focued on are the common areas of the school, namely hallways, cafeteria, bathrooms, playground and buses. Each student is given a lanyard and karabiner with an attached punch card. When staff members see students displaying those qualities that meet school rules and expectations, they can “punch” a students card with a hole punch. When a student receives 20 punches, his/her card is entered into a weekly prize bucket drawing into which we draw for small prizes for each grade level. The card is then placed into a large bucket for eligibility to receive a large prize at the end of the 9-week grading period.
Drumroll please...Thompson earned his 19th and 20th punches today. Not only did he complete his card, but he told us he was the first student in his class to do so. Needless to say, we are super proud of him!
