House System

Inspired by The Ron Clark Academy, we have chosen to implement The House System at Sylvia Mendez CREW Leadership Academy.  We are a TEAM.  We are a FAMILY.  With all teams, there is some form of competition and fun.  The Houses create a sense of belonging --a way of connecting with others across our campus.  Students and staff from all grade levels will make up each House.   Please see school calendar for the month noting when students can wear their House shirts.

• House of Altruismo (Black) - House of Givers
• House of Amistad (Red) - House of Friendship
• House of Isibindi (Green) - House of Courage
• House of Reveur (Blue) - House of Dreamers

Students earn points for their Houses at the Campus and Classroom levels:

• Student Achievement
• Showing EPICC behavior
• Helping others
• Great Character
• Getting Caught Reading
• Working Hard
• 9 week House Games
