Dear Center-Stanton Families,
In our busy world, our minds and bodies can get wrapped up in the hustle and bustle, and may have a hard time slowing down. It is also easy to get stuck thinking about things from the past or in the future, while forgetting to focus on the here and now. We all start out with a healthy ambition to accomplish and grow our abilities. Sometimes along the way when things don’t seem to come naturally to us, it is easy to give up.
We can’t! We need to think positively and persevere. Anyone who excels in their field has come upon hard times. They succeeded because they persevered and learned through positive experiences.
CSES POSITIVE BEHAVIOR INTERVENTION & SUPPORTS:
The Teachers/Staff and Administration started PBIS (Positive Behavior Interventions & Supports) in our school, as a way to encourage our students to promote positive behavior, kindness, and generosity toward each other. PBIS recognizes that students can only meet behavior expectations if they know what the expectations if they are known in advance. Everyone learns appropriate behavior and common language will be used when it is discussed in individual classrooms. By implementing PBIS, this school-wide approach to behavior focuses on building a safe and positive environment in which all students can learn.
- Student + Parent +School + Community = SUCCESS
- Wildcats are….Kind + Responsible +Safe +Positive +Respectful = READY TO LEARN
The PreK-2 Group have had three PBIS parties so far. Students have been really enjoying the extra Positive attention. September’s party was an Icee/Extra Recess/October’s Party was a Glow In The Dark Dance party/November’s Party was movie and popcorn/Gatorade. We have had a few students (2) that have NOT qualified for any parties because of their negative behavior, these students receive a classroom lesson from Mr. Sondag and Mr. Quinlivan, covering listen to the teacher, raising our hands, keeping our hands and feet to ourselves, and being a positive friend.

The children are our future. We are role models for them. Let us take this busy time of year to reflect and be prepared to hit the reset button starting January 4! We owe our children the gift of love, time, and the ability to persevere. Wishing you a happy holiday season. I hope you find time to do everything that is important to you and your family.
Mr. Sondag
