Tribes Programs
The 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

The 3 Step Plan involves:

• 1st Say "stop"
•  2nd Walk away
•  3rd Seek teacher assistance if help is needed
