Students may ask to level up each Thursday based
on that week's behavior. They may ask any teacher
for a "level up" form and may return it to any
teacher.
All teachers will discuss this during Friday and
students will receive their new cards the following
Monday.
Without the card, no privilege will be issued.
Students who have a red card due to a referral may
earn their way to one level below what they were
on prior to red the following week. Example: Week
10-green, Week 11-red, Week 12-blue
Referrals written for tardies (including the first
warning referral) are included.
Students must be passing all classes to be on pink;
no more than one F for green; no more than two Fs
for blue.
Three or more failing grades will put a student on
yellow. They will no longer go to red simply for
grades.
