Great job!

By highlighting and celebrating students' positive actions, you encourage them and their peers to continue demonstrating those behaviors.

Nice work!

Being recognized publicly for good behavior can boost a student's self-esteem and promote a positive self-image. When students see that good behavior is regularly acknowledged, it creates consistency in expectations and reinforces school-wide norms.

Way to go!

Positive referrals contribute to a school environment that focuses on growth, encouragement, and positivity, fostering a stronger sense of community.

Earn Tickets

Students are doing a great job of earning tickets for following the Pekin Pride Expectations. Teachers give specific praise to students who are following these school wide behavior expectations.

Reward ALL Students

We are a team and we will be working together at Pekin Elementary for these positive behavior rewards. Our next reward will be lunch outside! Hopefully we can celebrate soon when we have reached our goal.
