Teamwork for the win! ❄️ Mrs. Leahy and Mr. James have been plowing all the areas at school preparing to have our students back on campus tomorrow.

Reinforce the good things. Catching our students in the act of doing something selfless, kind, helpful, character building ,or displaying growth in a personal goal is recognized with a Pawesome Act. It helps them stand a little taller and brings us joy. Here are some students who earned Pawesome Acts last week.

Hello parents and guardians! Get your pens ready. Students have been sent home with a challenge to show you the flyer highlighting the outstanding ELO program for the Thanksgiving break and to bring the tear-off portion back. When they gain your signature and a mark for yes or no, they will earn Goal Store tokens. These efforts help us plan for staffing and supplies. Thank you!

These kids brought the positive energy to the awards assembly yesterday! Students from each class were recognized in areas of academics, citizenship, character, and attendance. We find joy in celebrating their efforts and hope their smiling faces brighten your weekend. Go Wildcats!🐾

Didn’t these two students do a great job on the call home yesterday!?! One was a bit shy, but with some encouragement from classmates, dug down deep, found some grit, and met the challenge! Super proud of these two! Here is next week at a glance:
