On Friday, February 3, 2012; over 300 Junior High Students participated in their quarterly reward for achieving and maintaining excellent behavior during the quarter and year. ACE status can be improved through good behavior and improvement of grades during the quarter. GJH students were treated with the newly released movie “Soul Surfer.” The movie was used to discuss with students about maintaining positive behaviors and their individual ability to achieve any goal that they put their mind too. Each individual has the potential to achieve their dreams with just a little effort and determination. The general theme; “Successes in life are only hindered by the barriers that they place before themselves.”
Students who were not able to achieve the reward worked with teaching staff on preparations for the OAA in Math and Science. Teachers from these departments graciously volunteered their time away from the reward ceremony to assist these students in developing skills in these areas. Fun was had by all and a positive lesson was given through their successes.
