Failure to enter required information consistently will result in a notice of failure to meet common expectations, which goes into the employment file. Rewards Weekly Rewards The Grammy week is Wednesday through Tuesday Students receive a report on Wednesday containing all Grammy and behavior information, earning status (including college t-shirt, Friday Reward, Saturday School, Gold/Platinum wristband, and any other reward that may be coming up), and information on academic progress On Thursday mornings, students return their reports at the front door with a parent signature; this is a record that parents are aware of student progress on a weekly basis, and serves as permission slip for Saturday School. Students who do not return the report with a signature will report immediately to administrators, who will make phone calls to parents. Most weekly rewards take place on Fridays. All grades have their own Friday Celebration, which is used to build team spirit, recognize students who embody the Core Values, and communicate grade-wide announcements. These are exciting, energy-filled events. Grade Level Rewards At certain points in the year, students will have the opportunity to work as a grade level team to earn a specific reward, which is often a trip. These will be earned based on the average performance of the grade in these categories: Grades ▪ Attendance ▪ Grammy Scores ▪ Team Points ▪ Homework Completion ▪ Grammy Auctions Level Teams will plan auctions periodically in which students can use their Grammys to purchase a variety of items provided by teachers and the school. These can range from homemade cookies to golf lessons Gold/Platinum Wristbands Students who earn between 85% - 92% of all possible Grammy’s for the week are “Gold Students.” Students who earn between 93% - 100% of all possible Grammy’s are “Platinum Students.” These students receive their gold/platinum wristbands in the Community Base classroom on Wednesdays, when they get the weekly report, which includes Gold and Platinum status. All wristbands from the previous week will be collected at this time as well. Teachers who have a Community Base will receive enough wristbands for all students, and will be responsible for
