At Woodside student's are expected to be prepared, respectful, inspiring, dependable, and engaged in all settings. Students who demonstrate these behaviors are rewarded PRIDE points in the Rooms App. You can view your child's report using the "behavior" tab in the Rooms App. The staff also write Positive Behavior Referrals for individual students. Thier names are announced over the PA system, and they are able to get a free book from our PBIS vending machine. This is a big highlight for the children! Please encourage your child to show their Woodside PRIDE each day on their way to school and help them be prepared by coming to school on time each day. You just can't hide that Woodside PRIDE!
