PBIS Daily Expectations Be Respectful Be Responsible Be Safe

Daily Expectations This year we will be revisiting our school wide expectations to reduce the number of discipline referrals as well as to create a more positive culture. Students will have the opportunity to earn Buzz Bucks for exhibiting good behaviors and consistently demonstrating good character.

Daily Expectations Students are expected to dress in a manner that is appropriate for school. Students are allowed to possess a cell phone. However, it is expected to remain off during the school day. These rules will be enforced, and we will follow a discipline progression plan for continued violations.

Bullying Nassau County will be implementing a program called “ Expect Respect” in an effort to have a systemic approach to address bullying.

Stop Strategy

Continued Students are encouraged to report unwanted behaviors to an adult. Teachers have been educated in what steps to take in the event a situation is reported. Also, in our student handbook, there is a QR code that will lead you to our Guidance Request Form.

Here Comes The Bus (HCTB) is an easy-to-use website and app that enables you to see the location of your child’s school bus on a smartphone, tablet, or personal computer. This way, you know when the bus is near your stop, so you can send your child out at just the right time. When the school bus is within a certain distance from your bus stop (you set the distance) you will get an email or push notification on your phone letting you know the bus is almost at your stop.

Here Comes The Bus Please keep in mind the following items if you choose to use this service: You must be registered to your correct bus and using your assigned bus stop based on the home address you are registered with at your school. Do not rely exclusively on HCTB and make sure you are still at your bus stop at the appointed time. Currently, we cannot provide technical support if you are unable to sign up. Not all features advertised on the HCTB site are available, but most will be added in the future. You can download the app from the Google Play or Apple Store or visit www. herecomesthebus. com. You will need your child's student ID# and our district's school code: 76491. For video tutorials and instructions on how to sign up and use HCTB you can visit the HCTB solutions page at http: //help. herecomesthebus. com/en/support/solutions.
