Principal's 200 Club - Students we are starting a new program called the Principal's 200 club. This program rewards students for "doing the right thing". Different teachers will be given tickets each week that they can hand to students for exhibiting positive behaviors. We will be focusing on three main character traits - Integrity, Respect, and Responsibility. When a teacher notices someone exhibiting these traits at a high standard, they will give you a ticket. You will then bring it to the office and sign our guest book. You will then draw a number and place your ticket on the bulletin board. Once we have a row full either diagonally or horizontally everyone in that row will receive a small prize. At the end of the month, everyone who received a ticket will be entered in a drawing for larger prizes. So there are several chances to win a prize. The more your name is on the board the more chances you will have to win. So let's restore the Roar and make River Road the best campus in Amarillo.
