What is EAA PRIDE?
Staff CurrencyEach staff member designed his or her
own currency.
Students enjoyed the original currency and were excited to earn
currency from different staff members.
2010 PBIS KickoffThe 2010 PRIDE Kickoff included
songs, skits, trivia and lots of prizes.
Students received sweatshirts, t-shirts, and backpacks for answering PRIDE trivia questions.
Staff members performed
skits for our own “Whose PRIDE is it anyway?”
PRIDE exchange kickoff
•We opened up our PRIDE Exchange by allowing students to come to the store for a Blowout Sale.•While students waited to shop, they were given the opportunity to talk in small groups with PBIS core team members.
•The small groups provided students a chance to get more information about PRIDE.•The students also completed a survey to tell the staff what kind of incentives they would like to purchase and their opinions on the PRIDE program.

RANDOM rewards
Discipline data showed that a frequent problem
behavior over the course of the year was students
leaving campus without permission
In order to prevent students from leaving campus
without permission, rewards are randomly provided to
students
Students are not aware when the rewards will be
given
Rewards: hot chocolate, gum, and other snacks
Student Bank Accounts Each student has a bank account for his or her
currency.
Students can deposit currency into their
accounts during homeroom and dismissal using a
deposit slip.
Students keep their own account register to
monitor their balance. When items are purchased
the students are responsible to update their
registers.
Sample Account
PRIDE Exchange An online system was made to help students use
their currency to shop at the EAA “online store”
The system was created to keep students in class,
but still gives students access to the items in the store.
During designated shopping times, students visit the
“online store” and write down their order on an order
slip.
Items are then delivered to the student by a staff
member within 1 school day.
What are your thoughts on the PRIDE program?
It’s OK, I like the idea of being able
to save currency to buy stuff.
-Jeremy (HS)I think it’s a wonderful way
to show students how to deal with money and show rewards for good behavior.
-Esara (HS)
I think that the teachers go over EAA PRIDE Program a little too much, but sometimes it works.
-Tyler (HS)
I think it’s cool and fair because the
ones that are doing right deserve things
like rewards. -Ciara (HS)
I think it’s good. You get currency for showing
