Glad To Be Rad

Today at Gym, we got to do circus things like spinning plates on your fingers and sticks, and we also go to learn how to juggle with Ms. Beach. We also got to juggle sticks called juggling sticks. It was really fun! - Dylan and Tyler
In an SLC, we were talking about how to care, how to share, and how to play fair, and tried to earn Glad to be Rad tickets. There's this board, and whenever you earn a glad to be Rad, you get to pick a number. Then there's this board and you get to put your smiley face up on that number. - Marie
In the SLC, Tyler and Mikayla got a Glad to be Rad for helping and supporting others. - Lexi

In the SLC, Shaylene kicked Nick with the soccer ball because they were asked to do this thing for the SLC where they were showing us how to get Glad to be Rads and how not to get Glad to be Rads. - Braylin

This morning, all the students of the school came together for the re-launch of our 'Glad To Be Rad' program. This is where staff hand out tickets to students who are 'caught' exhibiting one of the four Radisson school rules:

1) Keep hands, feet, and unkind words to yourself.

2) Respect your belongings and the belongings of others.

3) Help and support others.

4) Listen to all staff the first time.

The students show their tickets at the office, and pull a number. The number determines where on the 'Glad To Be Rad' board their smiley face is placed. Once there is a row of smiley faces, those students are called to the office to receive a small prize... and it's always big excitement when Mrs. Cross comes on the announcements to tell us that a row has been filled! As part of the re-launch, the students had a chance to participate in some cooperative games, where students were 'ticketed' for following one of the 4 rules. It was a great way to start the day!
