School-wide Celebration for Positive Behavior

First year principal Chad Holt always goes to the wall for his students. Recently, he did this quite literally. As a part of Mar Lee School's Positive Behavior System, Mr. Holt granted each student that had earned 80+% of their points for meeting the School Wide Expectations a piece of duct tape. Over 300 students earned this right. Then it was time to see if students could tape Mr. Holt to the wall. 300 plus pieces of tape later and Mr. Holt was stuck to the wall. When asked why PBS and these types of celebrations are important to Mar Lee, Mr. Holt responded "it's important for schools to teach positive
behavior and set high standards and then to make sure students are celebrated when they achieve their goal." Next time students will need to earn 85% of their points to earn
the next mystery celebration.
