### "Hero has CHANGED our campus. Our teachers have bought into it because it's so easy to use. "

December 11, 2017

5.0

Pros

The ease of use and the ability to select an entire class at a time. It makes it pretty easy to keep the class on a roll if they're all meeting expectations.

Cons

The whole class selection isn't available on the mobile app. I do like the ability to scan student IDs

### "It's ok"

December 11, 2017

3.0

Pros

The idea of the system to track points is great. It's a solid way of collecting data and making sure we are reaching our students.

Cons

The app still does not function correctly on phones. We have used this for two years now with the promise that we will be able to use our phones to run the program but there always seems to be something wrong with it so we have to use it from the website and with a barcode scanner.

5.0

Pros

I like all of the information it holds and how it has a mobile option so it can be used out of the classroom.

Cons

There are times when the software can become slow and not work properly. This can delay the distribution of points or our tardy tracking.

### "HERO"

March 11, 2019

Pros

We use HERO to track student behaviors. It works well for tracking positive behaviors.

5.0

Pros

It's a great way for me to involve my students in their behavior monitoring. Students enjoy the rewards and so do I.

### "An amazing experience that allows students to be rewarded for great behavior, a great motivator."

July 22, 2017

5.0

Student positive behavior has increased and students that would normally be unnoticed are being rewarded.

Pros

It allows for instant positive tracking. Students and parents can know that their behavior is being noticed. Kids that normally go unnoticed are being rewarded for awesome behavior.

Cons

I have not found there to be anything that has been a problem so far. The ease of the software is a huge plus.

### "I use this to track both positive and negative behaviors in class."

May 9, 2018

5.0

I can track all of the positives and negatives a student has done in class all in one place. It is easy to use, students enjoy getting the positive points especially when they are getting a reward such as a dress down for being top earners within the school. This has given some students incentive to work hard and to try to avoid negative behaviors. For these students, Hero has had a positive impact.

Pros

I like that I can do bulk trackings for when my whole class has done something positive such as stayed on task and worked well together or won a class competition, I can reward everyone at once.

Cons

I do not like that I can not see the history of points for a student. This would enable me to tell students if they have centrals (for infractions) and if I have given a student points or not when forgotten.

### "It is a very exciting and innovative way to control our students"

December 11, 2017

4.0

Pros

easy to use and you can customize to your needs. There are so many things we can use it for. I love the fact that we can print our detention passes and this system takes care of our tardies on Aeries.

Cons

On the phone it is hard to scan the ID's. I have an ipod which is the device that I use and it is very hard to scan the identification cards.

### "We use HERO at school to track positive behaviors and it works great!"

May 7, 2018

4.0

Pros

I like that it is easy to use and it is customized to work with your own school needs. For example we have certain behaviors we are looking for as a school and we can input those into the program for data purposes.

Cons

There are times that the website doesn't work, so I have to write points down and enter them later on days where this happens.

### "My Hero"

July 19, 2019

4.0

Pros

I like that I can track student behavior in a positive way. I like that students are motivated to do well, so they work really hard at it. I like that we can also track troublesome behaviors discreetly and that the administration received the alerts to manage negative student behaviors, without requiring communication from me.

Cons

I think the program is difficult to manage outside of the classroom, unless you have a scanner. The program also is not as user friendly as it could be, which interferes with my teaching, as it takes a lot of time to perform the log entries for a large class.

### "Easy to use, kids are engaged. "

July 29, 2017

4.0

Very FEW behavior issues.

Pros

Can easily keep track of student engagement! Kids are engaged which leads to better classroom successes.

Cons

Not sure if this is a school site concern or HERO, need more categories for monitoring. Wish teachers had the individual capabilities of putting their own categories in for PBiS Monitoring.

Behavior tracking both positive and negative

Pros

It's easy to use. I also like that parents get notifications about students' behaviors. I like that there is an app for it.

Cons

There isn't a way to set co-teachers in classes, therefore I have to search for students in my cotaught classes.
