Effective alternatives to suspension and expulsion are needed to respond to conflict on school campuses. Positive expression and resolution of conflict are learned behaviors. Implementation of conflict management can reduce violence, vandalism, chronic absenteeism, and suspensions. Family Reading Nights Guest readers, reading incentives, treats, and family quality time all become important components as our family reading nights grow bigger and bigger each month. Students and parents sign reading contracts and agree to read together for three evenings a week.
Parents also agree to attend at least three reading nights during the school year.
There are many incentives for students to earn, but most important is the quality time they spend with their families reading. We encourage parents to come to school and volunteer in their child's classroom. We understand that some of our parents work outside the home and coming to school is not always easy. We encourage those parents to take time each night with their child and discuss their day. Please set up a quiet, work area for your child where they can do homework each night.
