What is P.R.I.D.E. Lunch?

P.R.I.D.E Lunch is simply an opportunity during lunch to go to a
quiet room to complete late assignments. Students who do not
turn in an assignment on the assigned day are notified that they
will have P.R.I.D.E Lunch the next day if they do not turn in the
missing assignment by the next morning. Students get their lunch
and take lunch along with the missing work to the P.R.I.D.E Lunch
room where there is a support staff to monitor them. We
implemented P.R.I.D.E Lunch because we believe that students who
engage in their learning by completing assignments are most
likely to successfully meet grade level expectations.

What is P.R.I.D.E. Homework Club?

P.R.I.D.E Homework Club is our after-school support program to
assist students in completing their assignments. We have
teachers who will support your child with their learning on
Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 3:05-4:10 in the
cafeteria. Bus transportation is available for students who
normally ride the bus. This is an optional program for all
students. Some students are required to attend Homework Club if
they demonstrate chronic lateness in turning in their
assignments. Students who are assigned P.R.I.D.E Lunch three or
more times per week over a two week period are required to attend
P.R.I.D.E Homework Club. Please complete a permission form if
you would like your child to attend P.R.I.D.E Homework Club.

What is P.R.I.D.E. Day?

P.R.I.D.E Day refers to a day that we celebrate our students who
have demonstrated that they take responsibility for their
learning by earning all grades C- or above on their mid-quarter
or end of quarter report cards. Successful students get to
celebrate their accomplishments from 1:50-3 pm with a school wide
social time. During this time, students are allowed to go to
activities of their choosing. We offer crafts, karaoke, sports,
open gym, movies, games, etc. Students who earned grades below a
C-are required to attend a study hall to work on their
assignments to improve their future grades. Our first P.R.I.D.E
Day is Friday, October 22, from 1:50-3 pm. Parents are welcome
to attend to help monitor this event. Let Mrs. David know if you
are interested by calling 253-583-5402.
