PBIS House Rally!

Three students at a house rally

This month, we had our FIRST ever PBIS House Rally! Our House system is designed to create a sense of community and teach our students how to exhibit our S.O.A.R.I.N.G characteristics. Each student is randomly sorted into a house (think Harry Potter), so in each House there are students from each grade level. Students are awarded points throughout each 9 weeks for showing their best S.O.A.R.I.N.G characteristics, and those points go towards their house. At the end of each 9 weeks, the house with the most points wins a party! Each House also meets once every 9 weeks to build relationships, build House pride through chants and activities, and bond with their housemates through games.
