McTigger Incentive McTigger is our school mascot, chosen because he sports our yellow and black school colours. McTigger is a loveable stuffed tiger presented weekly to a different class who has achieved specific behaviour goals. Different departments have their own month to set criteria and award McTigger to the class that is most successful. We find this type of reinforcement promotes positive behaviours.
