What is new in the MLW this year:
"The Mountain Lion Way" is our school wide model of how we conduct business. All stakeholders understand the positive expectations we all follow so the school environment can be a positive learning experience. We have added MLW tickets this year to replace the coins for our token reward system. A student may be given a purple ticket for demonstrating that they have followed our positive expectations. On Fridays, we collect the tickets during lunch and do drawings for various prizes that students can claim. We love seeing the boxes full of purple tickets as this means our students are rocking it!!
We would like to thank our community shops for donating kindness and gifts to help with our incentive program! These include:
The Hat and Wood Shop
Kris Kringle
South
Thank you for the community support!!! Next time you visit any of their stores, give them a thank you from the IRMS community.
