Each Monday, we will focus on a manner that we feel is important for our students to know and use. Learning manners can help build strong relationships, improve communicaiton, and avoid misunderstandings.

This week's Manner is.....

In addtion to learning manners, each week we will also focus on character traits. Teaching character traits can help students develop positive personal traits, moral and ethical compasses, and the skills to navigate a complex world. It can also help students become better citizens, more confident, and more resilient.

We realize that most of you have already completed the "Student Emergency Form," however, the nurse's office experienced technicial difficulties and we need everyone to complete the form again.

We aplogize for the inconvenience.

Thank you for your help!
