Foster Falcons SOAR
This year we continue to implement the "Foster Falcons SOAR" Incentive Program. Technically, it's called PBIS, or Positive Behavior Interventions and Support. We have created the acronym SOAR, where each letter stands for expectations.
S - Safety First
O - Own Your Actions
A - Accept Others
R - Ready to learn
Each area of the campus has its own set of SOAR expectations. When we see students exhibiting the SOAR qualities, they are rewarded with a SOAR ticket to be entered in a drawing. Students are collecting tickets as a class to earn extra recess!
