What will be done with my students

Each quarter the 5th grade team of teachers will nominate students whom they believe have gone above and beyond in the focus areas of citizenship, academics, spirit and relationships, and leadership. Students who are selected will recevie their hoodie during a "Four Houses - One Family" assembly. As we continue this program and award, the honor of receiving the hoodie will motivate and encourage the commitment to excel so they can Wear it, Live it, Lead it! 

 

Benefits to my students

Leadership Hoodie will provide students with an incentive to be a well rounded individual who can succeed not only in academics, but also learn the value of social and emotional well being. We are using a specialized APP to award points for the various qualities and teacher input will also be considered in measuring student success.
