Avon Central Schools

The Avon Elementary School honors students each month that have exhibited great strength in a set of identified traits.  Students are provided with a medal that they wear for an entire week leading up to an assembly program in their honor.  At the assembly they receive a certificate.  

Building excellent character in our students is important to the teachers and staff at Avon Elementary School.  As part of our PBIS initiative we have incorporated our Leaders of the Month Program to help us teach students about different character traits and behavior expectations.  Each month is assigned a specific character trait.  Throughout the month, students learn about the identified trait and discuss behaviors that exhibit this trait.  Students are encouraged to practice showing good character at school, at home, and in their community.

Teachers and staff watch for students who can be chosen as Leaders of the Month for demonstrating the monthly trait on a consistent basis.  During the last week of the month, one student from each class is honored for exemplifying the monthly trait.  These students are chosen based on teacher and staff input.
