CHARGE ON
Positive Behavior Intervention and Support
PBIS at St. Catherine
One of the foremost advances in school wide discipline is the emphasis on school wide systems of support that include proactive strategies for defining, teaching, and supporting appropriate student behaviors to create positive school environments. A continuum of positive behavior support for all students within the school is implemented in both classroom and non-classroom settings (such as hallways, lunchroom, and recess).
Program Overview
Our Charge On positive behavior program focuses on promoting 8 positive behaviors:
Community: Having a sense of shared values and traditions
Helpful: Doing acts of kindness
Academic: Doing your best in school
Responsible: Be reliable and trustworthy
Generous: Freely giving to others
Empathetic: Understanding others feelings
Reverent: Show respect & responsibility in all that you do
Strong: Making good choices and not giving into peer pressure
“CHARGE” cards
Students can earn cards for exhibiting these positive behaviors. They can receive cards from other students, teachers or any school staff. These cards will be read in the classroom and then entered into a weekly drawing for small prizes. (Teachers can earn cards too!!). Cards are available to students in all classrooms and they will have time each week to fill out cards for anyone that has been kind to them.
CHARGE time
Each Tuesday we will end the day with our Charge On music and the names of our raffle winners.
We hope that focusing on these positive behavior traits will make students more conscious of their own choices and more aware of the kindness of others----which will make St. Catherine an even better place to be a student!!
