ECS CAPS
Eldred Central School Community Awards Program for Students
Each month of the school year, students who are "caught doing something right" will be recognized by
the school community. 15 (plus) students each month will be award recipients and will receive awards from the school
and the business community. Additionally, this group of students and their parents will be treated to a special awards
breakfast sponsored by the Sullivan County BOCES Career and Technical education program. A breakfast will take place
in the career and tech dining hall and will be prepared by students from all over the county.
ECS MISAS
Most Improved Subject Area Student
This program is geared towards students being recognized, in any subject area, for improvement, as per
teacher discretion. Each marking period, students, and their parents, will be invited to attend a special breakfast
in the cafeteria with the building principal and the Superintendent of Schools. At this breakfast, each student will
receive a special certificate for their improvement. Teachers will be asked to keep a close eye on improvement at all
student levels of achievement.
STUDENT OF THE WEEK
This new student recognition program involves students who, on a weekly basis are nominated for
committing an act that improves some aspect of the Eldred Junior-Senior High School. Students may be nominated by any school
community member. Each week, there will be one student winner. That student will have his or her picture posted
next to the principal's office for the entire week.
PRINCIPAL’S AWARD FOR PERFECT ATTENDANCE
Students who have attained perfect attendance for each marking period will receive special award recognition
from the principal. Students who continue to receive perfect attendance throughout their school careers will be recognized
and awarded.
STUDENT PERSISTENCE AWARD
This award took place for the first time in May 2003. The Student Persistence Award was born
out of the efforts of individual students and members of the Building Leadership Team who wanted to see a new award that addressed
hard-working students who maintained steady grades and exhibited positive behaviors to go along with their hard work.
This award will coincide with the ECS MISAS awards ceremony.
