KR WAY RECOGNITION PROGRAM KR WAY CARDS

KR Way Cards! Now that we know the KR Way, put it into action. If a KR staff member sees you demonstrating an act of Kindness, Pride or Responsibility, they may give you a KR Way Card and you could win a prize!

How it works….. Staff members will have KR Way cards. This means all staff, including teachers, para educators, custodians, office professionals, counselors, and kitchen staff! When they notice students doing something genuine that demonstrates the KR Way, they may give you a card. You fill out the card and turn it in to a bucket at the ASB cashier counter, in the cafeteria commons.

How it works…..continued! There will be four buckets at the counter, one for each grade level. Put your card in the bucket for your grade level. Every Friday one card will be randomly pulled from each bucket. Those students will need to email Mrs. Simonson their t-shirt size and their t-shirt and certificate will be delivered to their 4th period the following week.

The T-Shirt

How to fill out a KR Way Card See the example below. Be sure to put your full name, grade, and a short description of what you did to get the card. Staff may fill it out for you, or ask you to fill it out. The staff member will sign their name on the back of the card, so you remember who issued it to you!

KR Way Card Launch Our first drawing will be at the Homecoming Assembly on Friday, October 6th! All drawings after that will be on Fridays at the end of 5th period.
