Calling all Former Lions Graduating High School this Year...
Weekly Character Challenge
Each week, New Providence highlights student leaders who are demonstrating good character skills such as using the quiet signal, showing Roary's expectations, and/or exemplifying kindness. As a student shows one of these skills, they are presented with a ticket. That ticket is put into a box and names are drawn at the end of each week.
Congratulations to our drawing winners from the week of April 29-May 3:
Knox P. (Burwick)
Ben Q. (Elvington)
Leo B. (Elvington)
Eleanor Jane F. (Sundberg)
Cooper C. (Coker)
Kingston W. (Mabry)
