Award Maker

This website is a free site that allows you to download and personalize a wide variety of awards.  There are 9 pages of educational awards alone.  They download in PDF version.  You can type the information in but you are not given the privelages of saving what you type.  You must print at that point.

This is a great resource to have at the end of the year when teachers are giving awards to students for a variety of reasons.

No Bullying Allowed Podcast

One of my principals does a weekly assembly on the topic of bullying on Wednesdays.  Our district has a No Bullying Allowed policy.  At North Fairview we have staff NBA shirts that we wear every Wednesday.  The students respond well to the assemblies that often include enjoyable stories.  Mr. Albert is a wonderful speaker, so we decided to share these assemblies with the educational community as well as parents and local community members by posting them in a podcast.  Enjoy our first week’s podcast.
