Reclassification - Emergent Bilinguals

What does it take for a student to reclassify?

PBIS - Class Dojo Points

Parents,

Teachers assign all students 4 Class Dojo points each day by 8:30am when they submit attendance.

1 point each for being Respectful, Responsible, Safe & Kind
If the student is absent, they get zero (0) points for the day. If the student comes in after attendance has been submitted, the student gets two (2) points.
Students can earn additional points or lose points throughout the day.

Our fun monthly activities are tied to the CD points winners. These events are designed to support increased attendance and improved classroom behavior. We want students to feel rewarded in many ways for doing the right thing.
