DOM:
Another cool thing happening right now is the BRAVE award. The school PBIS committee has put together a form where you can nominate anyone who attends THS for a BRAVE award.
WILL:
That sounds pretty positive. So, what can people be nominated for?
DOM:
Well, staff and students can be nominated for anything from building positive culture in the building to encouraging others to going above and beyond.
WILL:
So, if you see someone doing something positive or selfless or outstanding, you can nominate them for a BRAVE award?
DOM:
That’s right. Just scan the QR code in the corners of the screen, or check your email for the link, or find the THS BRAVE Award icon on Abre.
WILL:
Sounds like a great idea. Here to talk a little more about this is assistant principal, Mrs. Hess:
