Student Houses
The House System helps to build a spirit of belonging. The student population is divided into 5 Houses. The Houses are called Dr. Seuss (blue), Hobbit (green), Idefix (purple), Petit Prince (yellow), and Potter (red). Each house is made up of students from all grade levels (k-6). Each House is headed by a team of teachers and a pair of student representatives. Students accumulate positive points for their House by exhibiting good citizenship, responsibility, team spirit, and commendable effort.
House Committee
A house committee, made up of staff members, is formed at the beginning of the school year to plan and organize events and activities that will take place throughout the year.
Goals of the House System
The goals of the house system are:
- To encourage positive behavior, by awarding tokens to students who best demonstrate the virtue of the month and/or random acts of kindness.
- To foster a sense of community and belonging by intergrading students from k-6, along with designated teachers in each house.
- To develop a buddy system, by having students in each house look out for each other, not only during house activities but throughout the course of the school day.
- To promote leadership skills through team building activities.
- To promote school spirit.
- To provide each student with a chance to feel success.
