Aptos High School

Staff members at Aptos High use a multitude of positive reinforcement tools to increase student motivation and positive behaviors on campus. These strategies can range from simple verbal praise, to awarding 5 Star points, to recognizing a student with a Mariner Moment. Each teacher has their own toolkit of positive reinforcement that works for them, but our school utitlizes several schoolwide reinforcements as well. The graphic below was created by our SAIL Leadership Team, and was first shared with students in the Fall of 2022.
