Belle Aire Beliefs And Practices
As a Belle Aire team, we have been working on a document we wanted to share with families so you can better understand the ins and outs of how we promote positive behaviors and how we respond to mistakes when mistakes are made. There is a lot of information in the document, so I will break things down for you over the coming weeks.
For this week, please focus on our "School-Wide Behavior Expectations," "School-Wide Support" and "Classroom Expectations and Support" sections. From last week, you should be able to see how Board policy translates to the school and into individual classrooms.
As for the school-wide support section, we held our first all-school meeting of the year today, Friday, and it was fantastic. The students learned about Bulldog bark-outs, reviewed recess expectations, had a preview of some upcoming events, and got a hint of future all-school meeting, rewards and prizes. We are so excited for the great things that lie ahead for us!
You can find out more about this in the "School-Wide" Support section of the linked document.
