What will be done with my students

As a part of the Herbert Cambridge Elementary positive behavior plan we will recognize our students' positive behaviors and character, by announcing them on the morning news with 'Positive Referrals'.
Each student who is recognized with a positive referral will receive a certificate to share with parents, have their picture displayed at school and receive a customized brag stick. Students can proudly display these brag sticks on a backpack, belt loop, or anything that they can connect to. The first brag stick that students will receive is customized with the Herbert Cambridge Elementary School theme and mascot, which will help build a sense of community. As they continue to earn positive referrals they can collect different brag stick designs. In addition, students who are recognized as Students of the Month will also be announced on the news, have their picture displayed and receive an 'I am a Leader' brag stick to display. Other incentives, such as reading, math or attendance may also be added and displayed on the brag stick holder. 

 

Benefits to my students

This project will benefit the Herbert Cambridge Elementary students by inspiring, motivating, and recognizing positive behaviors, attitudes and hard work. During a recent survey, Herbert Cambridge Elementary students reported that the recognition of Positive Referrals and Student of the Month were the top 2 incentives to motivate and reinforce their positive behaviors. These incentives not only reinforce students who receive the recognition, but the announcements on the news, displayed pictures and brag sticks displayed on backpacks serve as a reminder and a motivation for other students to make positive choices.  

 

Budget Narrative

Customized brag sticks minimum order is 500, the remainder of brag tags are used as welcome gifts for new students and visitors.
