Fifth Grade Behavior

This year in fifth grade we will continue to use "Capturing Kids Heart"social contracts. Teachers and students will make a contract together in each of the classrooms. It includes things such as being respectful, being honest, being a good listener, being responsible, following directions, etc. If students do not follow the contract set forth when in the classroom, they will receive a  sign on the nine weeks calendar.

​ At the end of the nine weeks, infractions will determine their citizenship grade on the report cards. Fifth grade will be using the following scale when determining the citizenship grades.
                                                                             E=0-4 infractions
                                                                             S=5-10 infractions
                                                                             N= 11-15 infractions
                                                                             U= 16+ infractions
At the bottom of the planner sheet, teachers will be keeping track of recurring infractions in the behavior, academic, or dress code categories. Multiple infractions in the same categories will result in contact from the teacher and eventually result in an office referral.
 ​                                      **If students are sent to the office, the citizenship grade will
​                                           automatically drop one letter grade that nine weeks. It
                                             will also exclude them from any citizenship award.**

​ In fifth grade, we do not require planners to be signed daily. We do expect the blue planner sheet to be signed each weekend.
