October's PBIS reward was Glow in the Dark Day. This reward is always a favorite way to celebrate Locust students' positive behavior! A special thank you to CEPTA for providing the glow sticks.

Such a fun night at Locust Fall Fest! A big big thank you to all the families, students and staff who donate their time and efforts to make this happen! Families were able to have fun as they walked through a spooky bus, bravely made their way though the haunted hallway and of course, all of our wonderful families who set up the best trunks for trunk or treating! Here are just a few pics from the night.

Locust students had 'oodles' of fun on Noodle Day, our September PBIS reward day on Sept. 26th. There was drumming with noodles, noodle necklaces, noodle games and a noodle run! So fun! We are looking forward to Glow in the Dark Day for our October reward!
