Positive Behavior Supports -PBIS
Positive Behavior Supports
Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports ( PBIS) is a proactive approach to establishing the behavioral supports and social culture needed for all students to achieve social, emotional and academic success. The purpose of PBIS is to teach behavioral expectations in the same way as we teach all core curriculum subjects throughout the building.
Harding is focusing on our four compass points:
- Citizenship
- Honesty
- Dedication
- Responsibility
To celebrate positive student behavior, Harding has implemented Skipper pride awards, positive locker notes, Skipper pride days, and end-of-semester drawings. Each month, students and staff will focus on a different character trait. Staff will be teaching lessons to reinforce how students can be responsible in every aspect of their lives. We hope your students have shared with you all the special events and celebrations that have taken place throughout the past few years from the Lake Metroparks "Survivor" team-building competition in the fall, to our Olympic Day and Lip Sync Battle, to our Skipper Pride program.

Event 2- Spirit Month Point Tally
For the next four weeks (January 27-February 21), Fairport students are competing in three teams in the PBIS Spirit Month. The teams are as follows:
Team 1: 6th, 8th, and 11th grades
Team 2: 7th and 10th grades
Team 3: 9th and 12 grades
Students can earn points for their teams in multiple ways:
Spirit days: wearing Fairport gear/maroon and white each Wednesday
Attending sports games: students sign in with their name and grade
Skipper Prides: every Pride counts as a point for their team
Attending extracurricular activities
This is where you come in! If you advise/coach/supervise a club, we would appreciate it if you would note how many students from each grade attend practices, meetings, etc., and then send that information at the end of each week to Mrs. Ring so she can tally points for each team weekly. Similarly, teachers should count students in their A Block class on Wednesdays (starting tomorrow) who are wearing Fairport attire/maroon and white, and submit that number and the students' grade (or how many were wearing Fairport gear from each grade in your class if there are multiple grades present) to Mrs. Ring by the end of the week.

Thanks to PBIS team #1. Nathan, Brandon, Corie, Jerry, Steve, Marissa, Megan, Jeannie, and Sarah. I have to say I have been to many talent shows at FHS and never has one been so successful, organized, and fun! You all did a great job and the kids were having a blast watching and performing. Brandon and Nathan ( and puppet) stole the show as emcees.

PBIS EVENT #2 2018-2019
Fairport Harding hosted its 3rd Annual Olympic Day competition on Friday, February 22. As always, the competition started with the world famous lip sync contest with the theme of, “Time.” The teachers began the competition with their rendition of MC Hammer’s Can’t Touch This. There was a standing ovation as they danced their way out of the gym. Mr. JJ Luster and Mr. Tim Hlousek kept the crowd excited with their unique hosting style for the event. In between each of the lip sync performances, there were bonus dance competitions including the Chicken Dance and the Whip and Nae Nae, which was dominated by English teacher, Mrs. Sandra Knight. After the lip sync, which was won by the senior team of Breanna Cremeans and Shyan Apple and their rendition of Queen songs, the relay games began.
The relay games began with the world-famous balloon pop. Following that, the crowd got excited for the human Hungry Hungry Hippo event, which included a student getting pushed on a scooter while scooping up balls in a laundry basket. It was a fast and furious competition that the crowd couldn’t get enough of. Following that, students raced while balancing ping pong balls on spoons. Overall, it was a great afternoon of fun and camaraderie.
After our official scorekeeper, Mr. Nathan Yaussy tallied all of the scores, the sophomores came out as the champions. They will have bragging rights for the whole year. Once again, Olympic Day was a huge success. PBIS Team 2 would like to thank our unbiased judges, Mrs. Anna Coll, Mrs. Mary Javins, and Mrs. Becky Darida, as well as our scorekeeper, Mr. Nathan Yaussy. Also a huge shout out to DJ Chris Ruzin. Their help was critical in making it a great day for everyone. The team would also like to thank the following businesses for making generous donations to allow each of our students to wear t-shirts that designated what class they were a part of:
Lubrizol
Harvey’s Farm Market
OurPets

The teachers brought their dance skills once again!! They dominated the lip sync competition!!
Students did an amazing job of supporting each class as they sang and danced their way to a successful lip sync competition.
Mrs. Fischer loved the support that students showed to one another by turning on their flashlights and swaying to the music as the 7th graders danced and sang!!
The seniors brought the house down by bringing all the students onto the stage as they sang and danced.
Judges were Miss Becky our very own Lunch Cook, board member Mary Javins and board member Nan Harless.
