PBIS All School Assembly 

On Wednesday, February 11th, the Pat Ham PBIS team once again held an all school assembly to celebrate our students and to have some fun.  The PBIS team recognized the Students of the Month that have been selected for the 25-26 school year, and will continue to do this as the year goes on.  Pictured here are September - Noah Osmer, October - Dominic Rios, November - Cruz Hyatt, December - Draya Fitchett.

Pictured below is the monthly game that was played during the assembly.  Pictured on the left are Team #1 was made up by Richard Kemp and Ayva Engen.  Team #2 was Jordyn Fuller and TaLee Kauffman.

 

During the PBIS assembly students with perfect attendance for the month of January were recognized and were presented a certificate.  There were 41 students to have perfect attendance last month and the building was challenged to make that number even bigger for next month!

The PBIS teams has been working very hard to bring new and fun things to our students and we are thankful for their hard work.  The next PBIS all school assembly will be Tuesday, March 10th.  We are excited to see what fun things they have in store for us.
