[7TH & 8TH GRADES]
Student of the Month Criteria for 8th Grade Wildcats and 7th Grade Jaguars:
The criteria for determining Student of the Month for the Wildcats/Jaguars is based in the CATS Code. We, the core teachers, have formulated a set of guidelines/rules that encompass the values of this code. With input from the encore teachers, we meet to discuss which students, a boy and girl from each grade level, have demonstrated excellence in the classroom, the halls, lunchroom, etc. The following are our class rules, based upon the CATS Code:
Be Prompt: The student is in his/her seat, on time, ready to learn
Be Prepared: The student has all required implements to learn (pencil, completed work, binder/notebook, textbook or other learning-based materials
Be Involved: The student contributes to class discussion in a positive, constructive manner
Be Respectful: The student shows respect to his/her teacher, classmates, and self
The above mentioned rules show the team teachers that a student has demonstrated Courage, Attitude, Teamwork, and Success.
