PBIS Update

  • We have also created a Google folder in our Shared Drive (OR Broncos) called OR Behavior Resources. Please upload any resources you have that you would like to share with our site. Our hope is that we can all share different resources for everyone to use when needed. Please try to name the document with details such as the grade level and a description.
  • Lunch continues to be an area where we can still see plenty of room for growth. Please know that we appreciate your support in practicing expectations and conversations with your students to help improve their lunch experience.
Outside Tables: Students should be eating on the original picnic tables. This will help alleviate trash by the portables.
