Awards
The Block "R" Award is an award that recognizes students involved in all areas of the school. The Block "R" award can be earned by all fourth, fifth, and sixth grade students. The criterion for this award reflects well-rounded participation and service, as well as achievement. Block “R” recipients will be honored at our Block “R” award ceremony at the end of the school year. In keeping with the spirit of the Clovis Unified School District philosophy to be the best you can be, the areas and activities in which students can earn points have been grouped into these three domains: Mind, Body and Spirit.
- Mind: Activities in this domain have to do with intellectual and artistic development.
- Body: Activities and requirements in this domain have to do with physical fitness and athletics.
- Spirit: The activities grouped in this domain have to do with character development.
They are designed to provide opportunities for the development of such character attributes as caring for and service to others, active citizenship, cooperativeness, responsibility, and dedication.
To receive this award, a student need not be the "star" of his or her activity, but he/she must be an active and enthusiastic participant in the activities of the school, engaged in the pursuit of excellence, and have met certain standards of achievement and performance. Individuals earning this prestigious award will receive a Block "R" engraved plaque. Thereafter, a student will receive a medallion to be added to their plaque upon meeting the Block "R" requirements once again.
It is not necessary for a student to participate in every activity to achieve this award. There are numerous ways a student may receive the Block "R" award. It is suggested that students, along with their parents and teacher, discuss/plan for this award at the beginning of each year. This helps eliminate students over-extending themselves, while encouraging others to participate.
To receive points for each category, students must follow through on all commitments for each activity. If a student withdrawals from an activity prior to the end of the season/semester, points will not be earned. Students need to earn at least the minimum points indicated for each category to qualify for the award.
CUSD Art Contests include MLK Day, Veteran’s Day, Yearbook Cover, CUSD Budget Cover Contest, and Library Art Contests.
It is our hope that all students will actively pursue this award, making it a part of their planning for their total school experience. Whether or not the student receives this award, striving for it will hopefully enrich and enhance his or her educational foundation.
While this is a school-based award, we do recognize that community involvement is extremely important. Here is more information on how to earn the community involvement points listed on the application.
