Laker Pride Expectations: Non-Classroom Behavior Expectations

As promised....

• "MS and HS Announcement

After one week of improvement (85 - 90 [%]) the MS and HS levels are positively reinforcing students meeting the goals by giving 10 minutes of extra free-time during Reading. Elementary teachers will be creating their own reward time with special circumstances for Title; try to fulfill the reward within 1-2 days of the improvement. "We" will let you know if there is improvement.

Announcement:

The three main school rules are being SAFE, RESPECTFUL AND RESPONSIBLE

You are all developing into responsible school citizens.

You have learned by now how to manage yourselves positively and productively in many ways are are expected to be Responsible by doing the right things at school without being ask.

Lately we are having some serious problems outside of the classrooms and we need your help with keeping things clean and in good working order.

We are expecting you to pick up your trash in the hallways, cafeteria, bus, all outside areas, the gym, classrooms and bathrooms and put things in trash cans. If you see trash please pick it up and throw it away even if you didn't put it there. Remind your friends in a nice way to throw things away properly if necessary.

We are expected you to write words and pictures only on paper - never, ever on any walls, desks, tables, books, or any school equipment, without adult staff permission.

We expect you to flush toilets. If a toilet isn't working, please report it to a teacher or the office.

If there is not improvement within one week we will have to make some rules to help students, which may not be fun. Such as: only using the bathroom at certain times, signing in and out of bathroom use, cutting into break times for cleanup, and there are many other restrictive possibilities. We do NOT want to do these things, so....

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP! WE CAN DO IT!!!! GO LAKERS!"

 Well, there you go. The announcement that all middle and high school teachers were required to read aloud to their students first period. I think it's kinda funny.. because it's like they're treating us like dogs or something. They have to spell it out in black and white, give us ultimatums, and bribe us to do what they want.
- I personally take care of my trash and the school property. This is an example of how one person (in this case, who can't pick up after themselves and be a responsible adolescent) can ruin something for everyone. Arrogance isn't bliss.

Let me remind you that this announcement is verbatim, a quote. It's in desperate need of some editing, but since everything on my blog is true, I've left it the way it is. Let's not go judging this girl's writing skills, based on a copied piece of paper, now.
:P

* 31 school days remaining. No school on the following Monday, Lakers. School on that Friday.
* Prom is closer than ever! I suppose I should really get on Sam's case to give me all the deets (for those of you who would like to know, who don't).
