PDAS Observations
Student Behavior
Please continue to help us monitor after school as well. As mentioned in an email to everyone, we can see how our presence is a deterrent to fighting and misbehavior.
And finally, please continue your Olweus lessons and talk to your students about their choices. Talk to them about choosing not to participate in the spreading of rumors. The administrators have spent a tremendous amount of time talking to students, investigating bullying, changing schedules, designating alternate routes to classes for students, and separating students to prevent conflicts. We have to continue our efforts to help them make better choices. Your help is appreciated.
