Students' Zone

Welcome all students to Hanby Middle School!

A place where all students can succeed!

The major goal of the Hanby community is academic excellence. To achieve this goal we need the commitment and involvement of our community as well as our students, staff, and parents.

The academic knowledge and cultural experience you gain at Hanby will serve you well in your high school years. Make the most of your education while you are here.

PBS

Hanby Middle School is a PBS (Positive Behavior Support) school.  We encourage and reward the behaviors we want to see students exhibit.  The foundation of our PBS program at Hanby is HMS.  Students are expected to:


 


 


H
ave Respect, Meet Expectations and Show Responsibility. 

Students are rewarded with green and gold cards for displaying these appropriate behaviors in all settings at Hanby.  Students can exchange their green and gold cards for a variety of rewards.  Each student is provided a copy of the matrix which helps remind students which behaviors are emphasized at Hanby Middle School.  It is our goal to encourage students to make these appropriate behaviors a part of their life beyond Hanby Middle School.
