    A3: It allows staff to recognize scholars and build positive relationships with scholars. It allows scholars to recognize their positive choices and build on them #wearewayne
  • jamiequilliam Feb 20 @ 8:12 PM EST
    A3 - It gives all of us a chance to emphasize the positive and promote more of what is expected instead of reacting to the negative behaviors. Not only does it positively impact the classroom behavior, it focuses on HOS and creating better citizens. #wearewayne
  • chckline Feb 20 @ 8:12 PM EST
    It sounds very deliberate and intentional! #wearewayne
    In reply to @chcbolek
  • CHCGiants Feb 20 @ 8:13 PM EST
    A3: working together for a common goal within various walls of the school community. #wearewayne
  • jfryeOU Feb 20 @ 8:13 PM EST
    A3: Having a school-wide PBS in place allows everyone in the school community to have the same, consistent expectations. Parents, bus drivers, support staff, cafe workers, custodians, etc are all on the same page! #wearewayne

    A common language is so important. #wearewayne
    In reply to @jclambert33
  • chc_miss_paine Feb 20 @ 8:14 PM EST
    A3 - It allows educators to educate and learners to learn. Some days we might not know which one is the student or teacher. We build relationships to help advance each other #wearewayne
  • CHCGiants Feb 20 @ 8:16 PM EST
    Q4: ...”the power of YET.” Belief in oneself and others is contagious. #wearewayne
  • CHCPrincipal Feb 20 @ 8:16 PM EST
    A3 Positive supports (thx Jill) take so many forms! Teachers and staff and families. Sometimes just little notes of appreciation (thx JohnTaylor) make such a difference💜 #wearewayne

  • chcbolek Feb 20 @ 8:17 PM EST
    A4: A strategy that we found successful was posting school-wide expectations everywhere in the building, so you can’t turn a corner without knowing the expectations. Common language and common goal #wearewayne
  • Miss_Wineland Feb 20 @ 8:17 PM EST
    A4: Allowing all staff members to give students public and positive recognition by using punch cards that can be worn in the hallway, allows for students to take pride in their own behavior and the behavior of their peers. #wearewayne
    In reply to @chapelhill78
  • chc_miss_paine Feb 20 @ 8:17 PM EST

    A5 - I use the following motto. “If you want your students best, first give them yours.” #wearewayne
  • CHC_Mr_Johnson Feb 20 @ 8:23 PM EST
    A5 - 1. Give them your consistent best effort every day. 2. Take the time to learn about who they are individually. 3. Genuinely care about who they are. 4. Be able to celebrate each scholar where they are. #wearewayne

    A5: Don’t be afraid to take a minute and ask students what they did last night. Dig deeper than the “I didn’t do anything this weekend” response. Also: remember the little details they tell you (sister’s name, kind of dog, favorite video game) #wearewayne
    In reply to @chapelhill78
  • CHCGiants Feb 20 @ 8:23 PM EST
    A5: enthusiasm towards daily dialogue, energy, and effort. #wearewayne

    Q6 - Last question... How do you celebrate your students daily, weekly, or monthly? Please do not forget to use #wearewayne Remember to start with A6 before your response.
  • chcbolek Feb 20 @ 8:28 PM EST
    A6: I finish each day with “nice job, have a great rest of your day, we’ll see each other tomorrow” and I find ways constantly give them feedback on their growth. #wearewayne
  • chc_miss_paine Feb 20 @ 8:29 PM EST
    A6 - Simple as a high five. Me cheering loudly. Giving out prizes. Showing how they’re a good example. Using team rewards. Simply telling them you’re happy to have them in class. #wearewayne
  • Miss_Wineland Feb 20 @ 8:29 PM EST
    A6: Since I progress monitor monthly I get to make a big deal that they passed a reading level. 🎉Also taking the time to notice the good things students do as humans, and taking a quiet moment to let them know you’ve seen the great work, makes a difference. #wearewayne

  • DeputyCraigLHC Feb 20 @ 8:29 PM EST
    A5 - LISTEN....kids will tell u just about anything...most of them just want somebody to listen to them... they will quickly figure out if u genuinely care or not.... if they see u are someone that cares, you have just laid a foundation for a great relationship #wearewayne
