Green Tickets

We have started our Green Ticket program again this year as a way to reward students for demonstrating outstanding behavior, or going above and beyond as a student of Devonshire. Students can earn a green ticket if a staff member sees them displaying one of the pillars of good character. Students will then put their ticket into one of our four containers outside the front office for a chance to win one of our prizes. For this trimester, students can choose extra P.E. time, extra computer time, lunch with a “celebrity,” or changing the outdoor marquee with Mr. Steinkamp. This program has helped us to focus on the positive choices our students are making, and not just targeting poor choices and negative behavior.

Our Commitment

Devonshire has a Commitment to Provide a Quality Education for all Students.
