6. WICKHAM ELEMENTARY’S POSITIVE BEHAVIOR SUPPORTS The Kate Wickham Positive Behavior Supports system focuses on helping children become responsible citizens. We strongly believe that with parents as partners, together we can help children achieve this goal. Throughout the day, students are rewarded with green tickets when displaying appropriate behaviors and making good choices. Random drawings in the classroom, and as a whole school, reward students with prizes/activities for their good choices. Our Behavior Action Plan is designed to inform parents of inappropriate choices made by their child. This could reflect one major incident or repetition of a minor incident after a warning. Please review this sheet with your child, and discuss the implications of her/his choice(s). After signing the form, one copy is to be kept for your records, and the other returned to school.
