Principal's Post
This week’s schedule was a bit different with a day off in the middle, but we were able to get back into our regular routine by Wednesday. Today, our 8th grade students had an opportunity to visit the Applied Technology Center (ATC) and explore the various courses they can take in high school.
We’re looking forward to honoring our veterans on Monday and celebrating World Kindness Day on Wednesday. Additionally, our 7th grade students will be attending a districtwide career fair, where they’ll learn about future career possibilities.
Please note that progress reports will be available in Canvas on November 13th.
As always, thank you for your continued support!
#ChangeStartsWithMe!
The "Leader in Me" Habit #2 is "Begin With the End in Mind" which encourages you to center your life on principles. Principles are timeless and universal.
This means that you plan ahead, you set goals and you do things that have meaning and make a difference. When you practice this habit, you know that you are an important part of your class, school, family and community.
