Students participating in Reward Week |
Lakeside Lightning,
The School of Tomorrow, Today!
Last week we had our first Amnesty and Reward Week. This program was something that we planned on for quite some time and it is simple... we are rewarding the students who have been exceling with various activities and down time while allowing struggling students some extra time to get their grades up. In addition, the teachers have used this time to individually conference with each of their students so that everyone knows where they stand before it is too late.
This week we will continue with the Amnesty and Reward activities. Be sure to check your teachers' Google Classroom for updates.
