Policies & Procedures

Behavior Policy
We use classroom dojo to track classroom behavior. Parents can join and look at their child's daily behavior, as well as communicate with the teacher. There is an app you can download to your smartphone or you can use the website www.classdojo.com. Students earn classroom dojo points throughout the day for making good choices, following expectations, and being a good friend.  Students then use these points to go shopping in our classroom store!
