In order to clarify our expectation at school that all students show respectful, responsible, and safe behavior at all times, we break down each goal into smaller, concrete behaviors and explicitly teach them as they are applied to different areas of the school.  For example, we define what respectful behavior looks like in the hallway -- then teach and reinforce those specific behaviors, like using quiet voices, respecting the space of others in the hallway, etc.  All these specific behaviors are put together on a teaching matrix that is displayed throughout the building so that students can easily refer to it.  Through this matrix, behavioral expectations are made very clear to students.
