IMPACT is a big part of Central Nine...
Central Nine’s vision is to cultivate a brighter future for students by integrating the core values that create IMPACT: Integrity, Motivation, Professionalism, Adaptability, Communication, and Teamwork. With these values in mind, Central Nine created The IMPACT Initiative to influence positive student behavior.
How we do it:
Our faculty utilizes it’s own Positive Behavior Interventions and Support Team (PBIS) to recognize and reward students who continually do outstanding work within our Career Center. However it is not just about academic successes. It’s also about encouraging the smaller everyday successes that make students realize their own accountably, dedication, and innovation.
The PBIS Team has created IMPACT Tickets, which Central Nine staff uses to reward students who personify our IMPACT values. These tickets get placed into drawings where students can win various prizes. IMPACT also provides Central Nine with the opportunity to celebrate everyday successes with our students during our end of the year parties. This year we will be celebrating high grades, good attendance, and zero discipline referrals with donut and pizza parties for students.
How you can help:
PBIS is always looking for donations to help keep The IMPACT Initiative running! These donations help us acknowledge students who personify our IMPACT traits by reinforcing positive behavior at our Career Center and in the community.
Any form of support you may be able to provide would be greatly appreciated. Examples of helpful donations include gift certificates, food coupons or vouchers, product sets and baskets, or financial donations to help purchase materials needed for this program. All donations are tax deductible and will be publicly acknowledged through our social media and other channels, as we are deeply grateful for your support.
