Citizen of the Month Awards 11/30
On Friday, November 30th, we will hold our Citizen of the Month awards at 8am on the yard.
Throughout the month of November, students will learn what it means to display gratitude; the readiness to show appreciation and to remember what you have with a thankful heart. Each student votes for someone in their class who has displayed these qualities and believes they should be recognized.
Be sure to ask your child about how they can show gratitude. Each month, AMA will focus on a different trait based off the 7 habits of effective leaders.
December's trait will focus on self-discipline.
All Citizen of the Month Awards are formal dress days.
All School Yearbook Photo & Picture Retakes 11/30
On Friday, November 30th, we will be taking our all school yearbook photo. Picture retakes will also be held on this day. Information has been sent home in your child's homework folder.
We can't wait to see everyone looking their best!
This day is a formal dress day for all students.
