In partnership with our building’s equity team, we’ve connected Livingston’s 100%s to a new and exciting “Hero Award.” At our community meetings, we introduce students to the importance of the 100%s and highlight one area at a time. Our fifth-grade student leaders then partner with our media specialist to learn how to teach these ideas to our younger students. During their lessons, our student leaders read a selected book and guide an activity that reinforces the focus for that month.Throughout each school day, we encourage our Bobcats to show these characteristics, and the language of the 100%s becomes part of our daily conversations. Our teachers then select one student from each classroom who exemplifies the focus, and we celebrate them at our community meetings by sharing their names, pictures, and the actions that earned them the Hero Award.
