Our school-wide expectations are to Be Engaged, Safe, and Thoughtful: we call it B.E.S.T.   We teach what Being Engaged, Safe and Thoughtful looks like in all the areas of the school and teachers collaborate with students to establish what B.E.S.T. looks like in their classrooms.  These posters show what B.E.S.T. looks like in each common areas and are posted throughout the school and include pictures for our younger students still learning to read:

Nuestras Nuestras expectativas en toda la escuela son ser comprometidos, seguros y considerados: lo llamamos B.E.S.T. Enseñamos cómo se ve Ser Enfocado, Seguro y Considerado en todas las áreas de la escuela y los maestros colaboran con los estudiantes para establecer cómo B.E.S.T. parece en sus salones. Estos carteles muestran lo que B.E.S.T. se ve en cada área común y se publican en toda la escuela e incluyen imágenes para nuestros estudiantes más jóvenes que aún están aprendiendo a leer:en toda la escuela son ser comprometidos, seguros y considerados: lo llamamos B.E.S.T.
