Terrific Kids Program
Being young leaders through practicing good character and good citizenship
Terrific Kids is a student recognition program, sponsored by members from the local Kiwanis club that promotes character development, self-esteem, and perseverance. Students work with their classroom teacher and establish goals to improve behavior, peer relationships, attendance, or schoolwork. Students then work toward achieving the goal during a specific time period.
The teachers and principal determine the best schedule for recognition.
Some schools recognize Terrific Kids during each grading period; others recognize students more often.
At the end of the designated time period all students who achieved their goals are recognized as Terrific Kids. Recognition includes being pinned as a Terrific Kid; a pizza, ice cream, or other food-themed party; and presentation of certificates, and other giveaways.
