PBIS Expectations

McLeod Elementary Attendance & Behavior Policy

At McLeod Elementary, every day counts! Daily attendance is essential for academic success—each tardy, early checkout, or missed day is valuable instructional time. Our school-wide attendance goal is 95%. Scholars who maintain 95% or higher attendance each month will be invited to a special celebration!

A scholar is considered at risk for being chronically absent after 11 days, and at 18 absences, the school reserves the right to retain them.

Behavior Policy (PBIS)

McLeod Elementary follows PBIS—Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports, a proactive approach that teaches and rewards positive behavior. We focus on our core values: Positive & Respectful Culture, Excellence, and Growth Mindset.

Scholars are recognized bi-weekly and monthly for meeting expectations. Teachers use PBIS Behavior Calendars to communicate behavior daily—parents must sign each day.

Criteria for PBIS Celebrations (Mustang Celebrations) & Mustang Store:

🐾 95% or higher attendance for the month
🐾 No in-school or out-of-school suspensions
🐾 All work completed or on an academic improvement plan
🐾 PreK–K: No more than 5 yellows or 3 reds (scholars who hit/bite staff may not participate)
🐾 Grades 1–5: No more than 10 infractions

Together, we build Mustang Excellence through respect, excellence, and positive choices every day!
