February 3-10 #positive #PBIS

This month we have been working on rolling out more formally our PBIS (Positive Behavior Interventions & Support) along with reviewing our refined BEST expectations for students. At Wednesday's staff meeting, Amy and I shared the positivity challenge for the month of February-- a time to pump up the positive communication for students, especially students who need additional support and practice with doing their best. For February, we invite you to take part in the challenge -- by not communicating home for minor issues, and by celebrating what we want to perpetuate. We hope your students and you have a happy month! If you'd like, we have a Twitter challenge to go along with it! This is for all staff--we hope you have fun!

Do you find inspiring things to share on social media? Here's something I saw this morning on Facebook that made me smile. Sara is an A3WP teacher at Arcade Middle School in San Juan.
