The students at MPLS celebrated RULES AND SAFETY by consciously following school rules.  These specific all-school rules examined the total school day:  before school, classroom, lunch, recess and after school.  Individual classrooms also identified, displayed and obeyed their own rules.

Skits

Cooperate and Walk in the Hallways

This is a skit teaching how to cooperate and walk in the hallways.

Setting: Study Hall 2nd period
High school students are working at their desks
Students walking to PE from 3rd grade: talking loudly, meet someone in the hallway, they're on the wrong side, jump on a classmate.

High School students: There they go again-it must be the 3rd graders. They are so loud; don't they know that they aren't being respectful of my class time. Don't they know that we're trying to LEARN in here? I wish they'd be more RESPONSIBLE.

KIDS: I think we bothered that class. I guess we were pretty loud. Maybe we'd better apologize. "Sorry we were so loud. It won't happen again."

Then the 3rd grade students walk by quietly.
The high school students say, "They're an awesome class. I am glad they turned out to be RESPECTFUL, and to not interrupt my learning. Now they are being RESPONSIBLE and doing the right thing."
