PBIS Corner:

For the first 2 weeks, we would like to 'flood' the school with Busy Bee's as we teach the students our universals.

1st-5th grade teachers- please begin going deeper into B.E.S.T. than just teaching the words.  Please teach your classes the universals for each letter in BEST in our common areas as well as your classroom.  This will be important when we must hold them accountable.  Feel free to use the lesson plans, or come up with your own creative way to teach BEST.
