This Week's Happenings
This week, we are recognizing the Week of Respect with various activities to celebrate and promote kindness, respect, and individuality in our school community. Today, we kicked things off by mixing and matching our clothing to symbolize how our unique qualities make each of us valuable. During our morning meeting, we participated in role-playing activities to practice respectful behaviors and learn how to support each other in different situations.
