 GRIZZLY WATCH
Purpose: Payson Junior High School’s Grizzly Watch is designed to motivate and give help to students who may be struggling academically. Its purpose is also to reward students who consistently do well in all of their classes at school.
 
Procedure: Twice each term, at the end of the third and sixth weeks, students will have the opportunity for enrichment. Students who are failing one or more classes will be identified and will work with a teacher during that time to receive additional instruction or to make up work. Students who are passing all of their classes will have the opportunity to participate in an activity of their choice. The activities may include athletics, clubs, games, movies, computers, and socializing.
