A MESSAGE FROM OUR SCHOOL PRINCIPAL:
Although we won't officially hear for a few more weeks if we will be recognized as a national LIGHTHOUSE school, I am so proud of the special staff and students that make Pontiac a premier place to teach and learn! I am so excited about the leadership opportunities we are able to provide to our students. In fact, more than 68% of our students have held a leadership job this year! Our students are finding their passion through Covey Clubs each 1/2 day. What joy it has been to watch these students learn more about gardening, self-care strategies, and even skills such as bucket drumming, cheerleading, and stepping!
Thank you, parents, for showing an interest in the 7 Habits and encouraging your children to practice these habits at home. Thank you for helping your child seek out student leadership jobs at school that fit nicely with their passions and interests. Thank you for supporting our school leadership framework as we continue to create joyful leaders and learners at PONTIAC!
