During each Town Hall, we recognize a group of Junior High students based on our monthly theme. The theme is shared with students during our Town Hall meetings and then an accompanying lesson for the theme is completed during homeroom time.
Students who are recognized are announced during our Town Hall, receive a t-shirt and 3 tickets that can be used towards raffle prizes during our Town Hall, and earn 2 points for their homeroom. Students can be recognized multiple times under different themes throughout the year! They earn additional tickets (6 tickets for a second recognition, 9 tickets for a third, etc.) for each time they are recognized after their first recognition.
We love to see the energy and support students show each other during our Recognizing Raiders portion of each Town Hall! A list of our monthly themes is below:
