Here are a few pictures from the PreK-2 Positive Behavior Glow in the Dark Dance Party. 80% of our Prek-2nd grade students qualified to participate in this Month's Positive Choice Activity, based on THEIR positive behaviors in school. As you can see they had a blast. The other 20% had a classroom lesson on the following: 1) Listening to our teacher 2) Raising our hand in class 3) Keeping our hands and feet to ourselves 4) Being a nice friend 5) Making positive choices . We learned that the only person who can control our behavior is OURSELVES. Please ask you child about the party?



Friday's Red Ribbon Week Activity: Students were greeted to school this morning by Sponge Bob Square Pants playing music. (It was a blast seeing their reactions getting off the bus) Students will complete a Drug-Free Pledge and an Act of Kindness Pledge and return them to the Elementary Office. If both pledge sheets are returned to the office they will receive a collapsible water bottle that they can decorate. Positive Choices Theme will continue into the afternoon with a PBIS Party for grades Pre-K thru 2nd Grade. (Shhhh- its a secret, don't tell anyone)(I can't help it, sorry teachers, its a Glow in the Dark Dance Party) from 1:00 to 1:30. Followed by a short recess, then dress up time for the classroom parties. Costume parade at 2:00 then finish the day with Classroom Parties. Happy Halloween everyone, Please be safe...Mr. S. & Mr. Q.





Thursday's Red Ribbon Week Activity:
Students were given a Kindness Mission Card that need to be decoded by the Special Agents at the school. After they received there Mission they needed to complete that Kindness Mission during recess. If the mission was completed they received their prizes.
It was a lot of fun, and the Kiddos loved it.



Hello All:
Coming home tomorrow is a free Sources of Strength t-shirt. The T-shirt shows a Healthy tree of strength, with the words "We are all Connected".
As you may be aware, this year Center-Stanton Public Schools received a grant from the North Dakota Department of Behavioral Health. Through this grant we were able to start a program called Sources of Strength.
At the core of Sources of Strength are eight different Strengths: Family Support, Positive Friends, Mentors, Healthy Activities, Generosity, Spirituality, Physical Health, and Mental Health.
We spend a lot of time visiting about being a POSITIVE FRIEND.
Positive Friends help each other through tough times. My challenge to you as parents/guardians/students is to be a positive friend to someone in need.
Each of these strengths shows up in a person’s life differently. Students are invited to explore strength in their own lives, empowered to grow their strengths and build resilience in order to promote health and wellness for themselves and others.
You as families/caregivers, play an important collaborative role, in helping learners truly apply strength to their lives in good times and in tough times. You are encouraged to ask your student how they are learning about the strength in their lives. We invite you to join them by naming strengths that you are strong in and use those strengths to navigate both the good times and tough times at home or school. The power of using strength in our lives can move us towards healthy coping, positive problem-solving, resilience, and wellbeing.
Mr. Q.


Tuesday's Red Ribbon Week Activities:
- Say "NO" Tattoos and Stickers given to all Elementary Students
- Drug Free Wildcats spelled out on the fence (See Pictures)
Thanks to Mr. Q and the 4th-6th Grade students for their help with this project. (PS. They also helped Mr. Q and Mr. S. spell the words correctly)
Effective drug/alcohol education is important because young people are faced with many influences to use both licit and illicit drugs. Education can play a counterbalancing role in shaping a normative culture of safety, moderation, and informed decision making.




🎃 The Elementary Halloween Party is this Friday, October 29th at 2:00 PM. Parents and siblings are allowed to partake in the costume parade.
🎃🎃 A few things to keep in mind; the school dress code still applies, students may not wear anything suggestive or provocative in any nature, and nothing that promotes illegal substances or activities, derogatory, disrespectful, or portrays violence, please no canes, sticks or weapon-like items of any kind. 🚫
🎃🎃🎃 We hope everyone has a safe, but fun Halloween weekend!

Wildcat VB is at home tomorrow (Tuesday) as they host the Eagles of New Town. Csquad match starts at 4:30 pm. Go, Cats!

Families of 7th - 12th grade students,
Hope all is going well! We would like to take time to communicate a change to our intervention time. We recognize that we have a lot of students that are working hard, being responsible, and taking care of business at school. Due to this we have implemented an incentive so that on Fridays students who have no missing assignments according to powerschool and have 85% or higher in all their classes can leave school at 3:03 during WAT (Wildcat Advisory Time). Students must check in with their WAT teacher and sign out in the office. Students who use bus transportation must remain in their WAT groups. Students who have their own transportation are required to leave school grounds for the remainder of the school day. This new incentive will begin October 29th. If you have any further questions, feel free to contact Mr. Mondry.
