Twin Peaks Tiger Den
To build community across our school, we have implemented multi-age dens. All classes have been assigned to a den, and each of the four dens have at least one class from each grade level. Dens meet quarterly to build relationships and community among older and younger students. They also earn points and compete with one another to reinforce PBIS. All students are a part of our school-wide Tiger Den, and all dens strive for excellence.
Taking PRIDE in our Actions
Dens are also used to teach life skills represented by the acronym PRIDE.
- P = Perseverance
- R = Reflective
- I = Integrity
- D = Dedication
- E = Excellence
