At North View Middle School (NVMS) we believe that teachers and students deserve a school environments that is safe, supportive, and conducive to learning. To ensure this supportive and inclusive environment, we pay close attention to the social, emotional, and behavioral needs of all students. We provide our students with a school-wide system of supports that include proactive strategies for defining, teaching, and acknowledging appropriate student behaviors to create a positive school environment.
At NVMS we have developed 3 behavior expectations that are applied school-wide and apply to all students and staff in every environment.
At North View we believe that students should be:
- Respectful
- Responsible and Safe
- Ready
In addition to actively supervising and monitoring behavior, we also positively reinforce expected behaviors by acknowledging students who meet or exceed our expectations. We do this by handing out Knight Pride tickets that students can use in our school store, hosting Knight Pride assemblies where students are acknowledged publicly by their peers and staff and providing students with a “Raffle Week”.
Raffle week is meant to serve as a positive behavior recognition for students who model Knight Pride AND as an incentive for students who consistently exhibit respect, responsibility, safety and readiness. Here’s what you need to know…
