Classroom Bank Students will be able to earn credits and debits throughout the school day. Each student has a job that will earn them automatic money. Students then have the opportunity to receive credits and gain more money in their bank account. They also may receive debits, or lose money, when making poor choices. Students receive 2 warnings before they will earn a debit ($1, $5 or $10 debit). At the end of a 2 week pay period, they take their money to the classroom bank and will be able to deposit their money or withdraw money for school coupons at the classroom store.
We are starting a new positive behavior incentive system at SWE. Students are able to earn starbucks for showing their “Be’s”. Students will be learning the three be’s—Be Responsible, Be Respectful and Be Safe. There will be a student of the week for each class and a pep-rally honoring star students. Every month, the grade will make a menu of activities that students can purchase with their starbucks. More information will come as the year goes on! PBIS

Also, if a child has a note and is excused from PE they are not allowed to participate in recess. • Wear tennis shoes every Wednesday & Friday! • Grading for PE will be run by a point system. • PE Grade: 0-3=E, 4-6=S, 7-10=N, 11+=U
