JES Counselor’s Corner
Dragon Diner


 

The Dragon Diner is a new character education recognition program implemented by the character education committee this year. Students are chosen by peers in their classrooms for demonstrating the character education word of the month.

 

The nomination process is as follows:

  • Pre-K teachers select a student in their homerooms each month who has exemplified the character education word of the month to attend the Dragon Diner.

  • Kindergarten and 1st grade teachers select 3 students in their homerooms who exemplified the character education word of the month and the students vote on one to attend the Dragon Diner.

  • 2nd grade students nominate their peers with a nomination form, place it in a ballot box, and a single name is drawn out to attend the Dragon Diner.

  • Each teacher completes a nomination form for the student selected by their classroom. This form is submitted electronically and a digital picture of the student is added. A copy is sent home to parents and one is posted on the bulletin board in the lunchroom.

  • A letter goes home to parents recognizing the students.

The Dragon Diner details:

  • Held once per month (last Friday of each month as feasible).

  • Food is provided for honorees (pizza, dessert, and juice box).

  • Takes place on the stage in the lunchroom.

  • Tables are decorated in Dragon colors with a Dragon theme.

  • Ms. Kenney serves the students lunch and special guests come by from time to time.
