• To avoid a Reminder Card and loss of my recess, I will remember to be safe, responsible, and respectful at Lagos, on the bus, or walking to and from school.

Reminder Cards(you don’t want to get one)
• I will hand these to students who are not being safe, responsible, or respectful.
• You will put this next to your student number on the wall chart.
• Loss of the next class recess.• If you end up with three reminder cards
during the same week you will miss Wacky Wednesday, complete a writing assignment about behavior, and I will send home a note for parent signature.
