Behavior Plan
​Deer Point Elementary School is excited to be a Leader in Me school. This is a highly regarded process with an outstanding reputation for helping students (and adults) take charge of their own growth and actions in all areas of their life. The process is based on the "7 Habits of Highly Effective People" by Steven Covey.
​
At Deer Point we believe that
-
Every student can be a leader.
-
Every student has genius.
-
Every student has opportunity to improve our school and community.
-
Every student is in charge of their learning.

Through Leadership
We will be using Class DOJO as a tool to track and reward behaviors. Class DOJO will also allow me to communicate reminders and share photos and class events. You will also be able to view your child's behavior through your account. It can be accessed by computer or phone/tablet app. I will be sending information for your free sign-up once school has begun. Behavior tracking will be linked to the 7 Habits. Our focus is to recognize and encourage positive behaviors more than negative behaviors. However, we are all human and everyone has off moments.
