School 17, located in the Botany Section of 51动漫, opened its doors to the community of 51动漫 in September of 2004. It currently serves approximately 600 students in grades Pre-kindergarten through grade 5. We are the home of the Jaguars, where the students are “Leaping into the Future.”
Our school is committed to creating a positive learning environment where students are academically and socially successful. As part of our strategic plan, we are implementing a Positive Behavior Plan in order to create a positive school climate. At School #17, we refer to this approach as being a “Top Cat”, using the 6 Pillars of Good Character. Our Positive Behavior Plan is designed to increase positive student outcomes and decrease conduct infractions. Through a collaborative team process, we have determined that being a “Top Cat” and using the 6 Pillars of Good Character is a priority at School #17 and every staff member is involved in recognizing our students for the positive contributions they make in our school community. If your child receives a “Top Cat Ticket”, please ask them what they did to receive it and praise them. With this ticket, your child will be entered into a raffle system to win one of many prizes throughout the school year!
