Akers' Updates
April 26, 2019
School News
Current Enrollment: 1,005
School-Wide Incentives: This is just a reminder that we will not accept any more school store orders after April 30. All student orders need to be submitted prior to May so that we can schedule them all. If your student has submitted something for Mrs. Akers - she is working to get them all scheduled. She has over 30 right now!!!
PLEASE start advertising the HERO WHEEL. The first spins will be NEXT FRIDAY, May 3!!! The HERO WHEEL will cost 150 SOAR bucks and will be offered in the Cafeteria every Friday in May. Students can purchase it from you by turning in their SOAR bucks to you! Make sure a teacher on lunch duty knows so that they get their spin.
If a student purchases a HERO WHEEL spin, they get to come up on the stage - in front of everyone - and get cheered on as they spin the wheel to earn a reward for their WHOLE CLASS (thus, the HERO in the name).
The WHEEL will be placed in the cafeteria on Fridays by the PBIS team and if your class earns a prize that requires supplies (such as a glow party with glow necklaces), they will be provided to you by your PBIS grade level rep!
Excited to get this end of year incentive in place to boost motivation! :) Share the image below with your students and explain the HERO WHEEL and sell some spins!!! :)
