Can you believe this. An article in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch describes a phenomenal new approach used by the Halls Ferry Elementary School in Florissant to provide students with a safe, orderly environment: RULES.
This seems like Parenting 101 to me. However, I suppose with all the self-esteem initiatives in schools the idea about using rules/consequences to guide student behavior may have gotten lost.
The image that is associated with the article and its caption are as follows:
The library rules are posted on the library door at Halls Ferry Elementary school in Florissant. Signs with rules and behavior tips are on the walls throughout the school as part of the Positive Behavior Intervention and Support program. (Max Gersh/P-D)
