November 20, 2018
Dear Mason Families,
Happy Tuesday! Much needed break that we all needed is upon us. I hope this week, you have the opportunity to connect with friends, neighbors and family to create a memorable experiences that will last a lifetime. Everyday, I am constantly reminded of so many things I should be thankful for...
I am thankful for our wonderful Mason Educators who do whatever it takes to help our learners understand what it truly means to Be a Leader, Be a Learner and Be Kind!
I am thankful for our wonderful Mason PTO who supports our school, staff and learners every way possible.
I am thankful for our wonderful Mason Families for the continuous support and helping out whenever necessary.
I am thankful for our Mason Students who come to school everyday to acquire the much needed skills and knowledge that will need to be successful in our ever changing world.
Please be safe this weekend and we look forward to seeing everyone back at school Monday, November 26th at 9:05 AM sharp!
Thanks you for all your support and kindness,
Roy Bishop, Jr.

November LIM - PBIS
LIM- Habit 3: Put First Things First is about setting priorities, planning ahead. We all have important things to do every day; this is why it is important that we manage our time wisely by setting our priorities. A priority is something important that requires our attention and needs to be done. This means work first, then play. Great example of this is for learners to finish their homework first and chores then play.
PBIS Focus- Recess/Playground Behavior
Use equipment and play games by the rules.
Feet first down the slides.
Take turns on the tire swings. No more than 3 kids on the tire swings at a time.
Keep hands, feet and objects to yourself
Include everyone who wants to play.
Wear the right clothing for the weather.
Line up silently when you hear the whistle the first time.
Enter & exit the building silently and in an orderly line.
Have fun & be kind to each other!
