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, etc. If students do not follow the contract set forth when in the classroom, they will receive a behavior sign on the nine weeks calendar. For those at home learners, citizenship will be based on missing/late assignments. Each week, for in person learners, there will be weekly consequences based on the amounts of signs.

​ 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
                                   ​**If students are sent to the office, the citizenship grade will
​                                           automatically drop one letter grade that nine weeks.**
Homeroom teachers will attach a note to the planner when a student reaches a number of signs that would warrant a letter grade drop in citizenship grade.  In fifth grade, we do not require planners to be signed daily or weekly. We only require planners to be signed when a behavior sign has been given. We do encourage; however, parents to look at the 9 weeks calendar at least weekly, to make sure that any infractions are know.
