Tiger Tickets 

For the month of November, we continue to focus on the value of RESPECT. Staff are excited to recognize students that are showing respect by presenting them with a Tiger Ticket. Tiger Tickets are shared on the morning announcements throughout the month. Here are some examples of how students are being respectful at OSG: 
H. and P. in room 12 helped to clean the classroom without being asked. 

E. in room 3 helped a friend that was injured. 

A. in room 11 helped to clean up a mess in the hallway. 

I. in room 16 was spotted fixing a bulletin board in the hall outside their classroom. 

Way to go, Geiger Tigers! Keep up the great work.
