Tribes ProgramsThe Tribes Programs helps students develop social
skills and respect for others and for life. There are four agreements
in Tribes:
APPRECIATION - NO PUT DOWNS
I will speak kindly to others and think of other people's feelings
MUTUAL RESPECT
I will show respect to people and their belongings and the world and its
creatures around me. I will treat others the way I wish to be treated.
ATTENTIVE LISTENING
I will listen when others are speaking and give them my undivided attention and consideration.
RIGHT TO PASS / PARTICIPATE
I have the right to pass in certain activities and to know that the more I participate the more I gain.
We encourage students:
- to think and consider the agreements of mutual respect before acting
- to use the 3 step plan to resolve conflict
