                          On Target Ceremony - Wednesday, Feb. 10 at 2:30pm

                          The staff at Tackan has instituted a positive reinforcement program called the Principal's On Target Award. Teachers can nominate students in grades Kindergarten through Fifth grade for their positive contributions to the Tackan school community. Students may be nominated for having a great attitude, showing improvement, demonstrating good citizenship, treating others kindly, etc. This award is not an academic award. Our goal is to recognize students for just "doing the right thing."
                          We hope that all children will have an opportunity during their career at Tackan to be recognized for their positive contribution to the Tackan community.
