Be Kind, Be Safe, and Do Your Job are the only school rules you need! I have taught for 33 years, in three different districts. I have seen many school-wide rules instituted, but these are the only ones that stuck! Our district has used these for years! These rules are simple and easy to remember. All other rules can fit under these main rules. This resource includes a poster for each of the three rules and suggested books to read to your class for each rule to help facilitate discussion. A student booklet for each student to complete, take home, and share with their families is also included.
