As a part of a schoolwide reward system, the students in Pre-K have been earning blue tickets. When a child shows respect, responsibility, safety, or putting forth their best effort, they receive a blue ticket from a staff member. Once the school has filled a bucket by earning blue tickets, they get to receive a reward.
This month’s reward was the opportunity to participate in “Game Day” with high school students! Pre-K really enjoyed playing ‘Pop the Pig’ with students from Shaler Area High School!
It was a great time! Keep up the great work and keep earning those blue tickets!
