**Classroom rules are posted as reminders**
A check will appear on the class clipboard each time a student breaks a
rule. Each check means 5 minutes from recess. If warranted, the child may
have to write the broken rule in cursive for a designated amount of times.
If a child receives 3 checks in one day, a discipline notice will be written
up; therefore, requiring a parent signature. Three discipline notices per 3
weeks is automatic BMC.
If a student completes work neatly, helps another student/teacher, assists
when not asked, or performs a random act of kindness, they could also
receive a wooden nickel, a Good Character recognition w/prize or a High-5.
