Has anyone used the House System that Ron Clark Academy uses. Our school is using it next year. I'm just curious about the response schools have had.

I don't know if we use the same exact system, but we do have a beautiful house system at my academy. Our students love having something to call their own, to have a voice to contribute meaningfully to the school culture and create a legacy for those that come after them. We have 10 houses. From house Austen, Tchaikovsky, Tolkien, and Washington to Davinci, Charlemagne, Shakespeare and Euclid. As a classical school we have had so much fun creating the Athenian lore back stories for each house and competing in academic field day as well as P.E. field day house put on fundraisers and innocent house shenanigans. There is so much that you can do with a house system to create lasting memories and help direct school culture.

Are you a private school?

A charter.

I have actually never even heard of this system before OP. Sounds really interesting though.
