Sheckler Elementary School students will have a Think First Anti-Bullying Assembly Sept. 22.

The school has a Think First Program in place which uses a card system to remind students about maintaining positive behavior at school.

The student starts each day with a green card that may be flipped to a yellow warning card or a red card, based on the behavior they have exhibited throughout the day.

Students who maintain positive behavior for the month are then invited to participate in a monthly reward that is offered for those students. They are also acknowledged in two assemblies held throughout the year where they are honored for “thinking first.”

Sheckler is off to a great start with the Box Tops for Education collection. A total of 4,956 box tops have been collected thus far, which will profit the school $495.60 to help fund programs and events for the students throughout the school year.

Grade-level box-top totals to date are: kindergarten, 832; first grade, 937; second grade, 1,115; third grade, 1,190; and fourth grade 882.

Way to go! Remember to continue sending in those box tops and let’s help the students turn trash into cash for their school.

Ready, set, smile! Picture day at Sheckler is Sept. 27.
