Discussion:
The discussion of the meeting focused on the framework for improving hallway behaviors. Strengths and various areas of concern were discussed. Consensus for a goal statement was established as follows:
“The hallways of Lockwood Middle School will be a safe, quiet, and orderly environment where people interact with courtesy and respect.”
After discussing several concern areas, the team decided to focus on universal building concerns in the hall, primarily in the areas of walking, noise control, and safety. Upcoming meetings will look at expectations for each area and what strategies can be used in teaching them.

The LION PRIDE vision statement sparked the idea for a teaching model tentatively called “LION LANES”. This model would be used to teach desired hallway behavior. Imagine teaching appropriate hallway behavior as being similar to teaching Driver’s Education to these folks, (traffic flows to the right, no parking area, or issuing a warning for speeding.)

Thanks to those of you who submitted your thoughts and concerns. Your input was appreciated.
