B.U.G
Bring up Grades, or BUG is a program designed to provide recognition to students who raise their grades to an acceptable range, and maintain or continue to raise them from one grading period to the next. Six weeks recognition items include certificates, pizza, and ice cream parties. End of year prizes include cash prizes and other items. The program works in the following manner.
Starting with the second six weeks report card and every six weeks report card thereafter, BUG tickets will be issued to every student who has higher report card grades in Math, English, Reading, Spelling, Science, and Social Studies than the previous six weeks. Each student’s teacher will fill out a BUG ticket for each of their students that earn them. BUG tickets will be collected each six weeks for the end of the year drawing for major prizes.
Certificates will be issued to BUG achieving students. Students will earn various prizes at the end of each six weeks and at the semester. The sponsor of the Spring Creek BUG Program is the Kiwanis Club of Borger led by Cindy Cornelius.
Call the school for more information at 273-6791.
