How to start a student of the month program

Starting a student of the month program is a great way to recognize and celebrate students’ achievements and efforts. Here are some steps to get started:

  • Set goals and criteria: Decide what you want to achieve with the student of the month program and what criteria you will use to select the winner. For example, you may want to recognize academic achievement, good behavior, leadership skills, or community service.
  • Get support from the administration: Talk to the school administration about your idea and get their support. They may be able to provide resources or funding for the program.
  • Create a nomination process: Develop a process for nominating students for the award. This could involve teachers, staff, and even students themselves. Consider creating a nomination form that includes criteria for the award.
  • Choose a selection committee: Select a committee of teachers, staff, and administrators to review the nominations and choose the winner. Make sure the committee members are committed to the program and have a good understanding of the selection criteria.
  • Decide on rewards: Determine what the student of the month will receive as a reward. This could include a certificate, a trophy, a gift card, or a special activity.
  • Promote the program: Spread the word about the student of the month program to students, parents, and staff. Make sure everyone knows about the program and understands how to participate.
  • Hold a recognition ceremony: Hold a ceremony each month to recognize the winner and celebrate their achievements. Consider inviting parents, staff, and community members to attend.

Remember, the student of the month program should be a positive and inclusive program that celebrates all students’ achievements, not just those who receive the award. Encourage and recognize all students’ efforts and progress throughout the year.

Student of the month criteria

If you are not sure how to select the student of the month here are some ideas:

  • Students who receive a specific GPA
  • Students who exemplify outstanding character traits such as honesty, compassion, integrity, responsibility, trustworthiness, etc.
  • Perfect attendance for a specific period
  • Good citizenship
  • Academic excellence
  • Positive academic improvement over a specific period
  • Leadership – being a role model for other students
  • Good behavior – for students who model exemplary behavior
  • Friendship – including others and helping those in need
  • Giving to the community

You might want to ensure that a different student is selected each month. Some teachers do not believe in this system and prefer to award it to the most worthy student even if he or she is given the award more than once.
