Abe's List & Citienship

Citizenship Marks in PowerSchool

All teachers will input a citizenship mark for each of their students twice per month on Mondays, in PowerSchool.

  • These marks should reflect students’ behavior over the prior two weeks using the following codes:
    O (Outstanding) – 3 points
    P (Progressing) – 2 points
    N (Needs Improvement) – 1 point
    U (Unacceptable) – 0 points

ABE Standard Points System

Students earn points based on three categories:

  1. Attendance (1 point per 2 weeks, per class)

    • No more than one unexcused absence (3 tardies = 1 unexcused absence)

    • ISS or OSS counts as an unexcused absence

  2. Behavior (1 point per 2 weeks, per class)

    • No ABE plans created in that class

    • No teacher referrals or referrals from other staff (loses a point in Advisory if referred)

  3. Engagement (1 point per 2 weeks, per class)

    • No unauthorized technology use in class

    • No sleeping in class

    • All assignments turned in

Tallying & Entering Scores in the ABEs List

  • Twice a month on Wednesdays, teachers will tally up the scores for their Advisory students and enter them into the ABEs list on Google Drive

    • Typical students (6 LMS classes + Advisory) can earn 21 points per cycle.

      • Students with 17 or more pointsYES (eligible).

      • Students with 15-16 points, passing all classes, and no “U” marks or failing gradesYES (eligible).
