Several years ago, Manteca High set out to change the culture of the school.Although steep in tradition, MHS had an image problem of sorts, according to Assistant Principal Troy Fast.“We had too many (office) referrals from fights and other on-campus incidents,” he said on Tuesday.Fast, who has been an administrator at the school for the past eight years, attended a Renaissance conference in Oakdale in 2013. It was there that he drew inspiration of what would be the frame work of the Honor The School program.Principal Frank Gonzales was its biggest supporter.“We were spending too much time dealing with negative behavior instead of rewarding positive behavior,” said Fast, who credited a small school up north for sharing a program that recognized students with positive, tangible incentives.Today, Honor The Code is prevalent throughout campus. The school has reported fewer referrals than ever as part of the results.The program kicked off its fourth year on Friday.
