COOPERATION Cooperation is working with one or more individuals in a kind, supportive, and helpful way. Students will wait patiently for their turn, and will use kind, encouraging, and helpful words. RESPECT Respect is being kind and polite to all people. Students will listen while others speak. They will walk quietly in the hallways and will be polite and use good manners.

RESPONSIBILITY Responsibility is being honest and telling the truth about the choices we make. It is completing assigned tasks and following the expectations of our school, classroom, cafeteria, and recess yard. Students will be honest. They will complete their schoolwork, will work hard as a learner and will follow all directions. Students will accept the consequences they have earned. SPORTSMANSHIP Good sportsmanship is playing a game fairly and being willing to accept winning or losing in a positive way. Students will include others if they are being left out. They will play by the rules and will use kind words during a game.
