Each staff member in the middle school clearly values being the best. What would help motivate you **__continue__** to be your best? As a group, list three “things” that could help to boost staff morale.
 * quick fire or other drill time=all faculty can go out on their prep
 * 100% attendance of staff, get food, snacks, donuts
 * treats at all faculty meetings (like the lifesavers today)
 * longer lunch or prep
 * Wawa gift card
 * a week not having to post lesson plans
 * recognition (i.e. sticky notes on door or emails) so everyone knows
 * comfort room on the far wing (old 6th grade wing)
 * party (breakfast, lunch, snack-sign-up)
 * Breakfast for the entire staff
 * potluck lunch
 * going out on prep period
