  1. "Bee" a S.A.C.K. Member  
S.A.C.K. (Simple Acts of Care and Kindness) is a violence prevention incentive program which encourages students to show simple acts of care and kindness. As a result of showing care and kindness, a student of the month is selected from each class. The student of the month will receive a certificate and a subscription to the National Kids' Club newsletter from the S.A.C.K. foundation. Classroom incentives are also given to these students.

  3. "Bee" a Good Character  
Character education promotes a positive environment in the school and helps prepare our students to achieve their goals and face the challenges they will experience in life. At our school we strive to help students achieve academic success and develop good character.
 
  4. "Bee" the Best that You Can "Bee"  

Our counseling program is implemented through three major areas:

  • Classroom Guidance
  • Small Group Counseling
  • Individual Counseling
Classroom Guidance lessons emphasize decision making, self-understanding, conflict resolution, career exploration, and the improvement of study and test taking skills.
Small Group and Individual Counseling are provided for students expressing difficulites dealing with relationships, personal concerns, or normal developmental tasks. Personal counseling assists students in identifying problems, causes, alternatives, and possible consequences so that the appropriate action can be taken. The following small groups are offered throught the year:
  • Grade Grabbers - Academics and Study Skills
  • Easy Does It - Aggressive Behavior
  • A Missing Piece - Death/Dying
  • Attitude Adjusters - Rules/Authority
  • The Right Stuff - Self-Esteem
  • Banana Splits - Divorce
  • School's Cool - Adjustment to School
  5. "Bee" a 'Peacemaker' (Peer Mediation)  
The Peer Mediation Program helps students become peacemakers by teaching them how to alter their behavior, control their anger, and resolve their disputes 'peacefully'. The students will learn to:
  • Attack the problem, not the person
  • Listen to each other
  • Respect the feelings of others
  • Be honest about their feelings
  • Take responsibility for their actions

Two (2) Conflicts Managers are assigned in ALL classrooms, kindergarten - fourth grade. They have been trained in the skills of conflict resolution and are ready to help their peers resolve conflicts peaceably.

Conflict Managers Pledge

  • I will listen carefully
  • I will not take sides
  • I will respect the feelings of others
  • I will make sure ground rules are followed
  • I will try hard to HELP solve the conflict
