The Point System

Students earn points which count toward their house points. At the end of the year a house champion is determined. This creates a fun and healthy competition between the houses.

Individual classrooms/grade levels set up their own rewards based on individual student’s points.

We will use LiveSchool to track both individual and house points. Every time an individual students earns a point, it is automatically added to their house.

Students can not lose a point once it is earned.
