Lights, Camera, PBIS

As we settle into the second semester of the school year the idea of PBIS becomes a major focus for the students and teachers at MHS. PBIS, or also known as positive behavior in schools, was brought into the high school to create a better environment for everyone. Mr. Kramer is the advisor for these ideas in hopes to make the high school a more inviting and better place. The efforts to do so are based on the students who are willing to take time out of their day to make the school better and bring more respect with it as well. This week to get more school spirit and students involved, the best way was to make it a spirit week. On Tuesday it was hat day, Wednesday was twin day, Thursday was favorite sports day, finally on Friday is blustreak spirit day with an assembly to follow. Whoever participates in the themes has the chance to pie Principal Whaley in the face at the assembly. The assembly is not the only excitement that has to deal with PBIS, a group of students were chosen to make a video to demonstrate good PBIS behavior. The students involved were: Jacob Glass, Justus Albert, Lexi Fleischer, Nyla Chandler, Chania Crawford, Hunter Nadzan, Zach Waterman, Jillian Jeschenig, CJ Kessler, Fabi Ruiz Diaz, Ryan Bowers, and director Adam Grierson. Seven small videos were made by these students in different settings of the school to portray the positive attitude to bring into the school. When asked how Chania felt about the video she said, “Personally, I felt very honored to be part of this PBIS video because I hope it will make the school a better place, and I hope everyone enjoys the video, and has the same hopes as me.” For about four days, the students were taken out of their lunches and partially for some classes to spend as much time as the could on the video. The video ends with small snippets of every teacher in Madison High School that shoutout one student that they believe supports PBIS the best.
