As part of our #PBIS program, students are now able to earn "orange tickets" when a teacher notices them doing something that is hard for them! When students earn an orange ticket, they turn it in for special drawings. Today, a few selected students got to be special popcorn helpers for the school-wide reward of movie and popcorn that was earned by all classes meeting their goals!
