Positive Behavior Support

In an effort to instill in our students the character traits that will help them become successful, the Postive Behavior Support team will be posting each week, three character traits that students can think about and apply in their lives.

  • Determination vs Faintheartedness

    Purposing to accomplish right goals at the right time, regardless of the opposition

  • Honor vs Disrespect

    Respecting others because of the higher authorities they represent

  • Gratefulness vs Unthankfulness

    Letting others know by my words and actions how they have benefited my life
